Jennifer W. Pet Care Provider in Grand Rapids, MI 49512

I have an extensive background in animal care, veterinary assistance and kennel technician experience. I even graduated high school from The Cincinnati Zoo Academy and worked with elephants, gorillas and much, much more! have spent the better part of my life caring for animals. I have one little girl chihuahua named Frida and two senior cats, Trixie and Elvis.

I love being around dogs and cats, whether old, young, big or small, quiet and reserved or huge, stinky and goofy! They can turn a bad day around with just a hug, tail wag or meow.

I am responsible, conscientious and mature. I am available for general duties such as dog walking, feeding, and litter box cleanup as well as more extensive care such as overnights, medication dispensing and other health/medical situations. My veterinary background allows me the knowledge and experience to care for pets with medical needs and ailments.
I have reliable transportation, drug and tobacco free and no criminal history. This summer, I will have an open, flexible schedule for simple daily dog walking to overnights during family vacations. I specialized in animal husbandry while in high school and also worked as a zookeeper at The Cincinnati Zoo and Botanical Gardens. Also about me, I am an avid gardener, love photography, camping, hiking and all things outdoors. I love books and have worked in bookstore and library settings
I plan on attending college in the Fall and will be leaving my position at Blue Pearl Emergency Animal Clinic to pursue Environmental Science. My dream job is working in The National Parks!
