Jason D. Pet Care Provider in Eugene, OR 97401

I previously worked for 4 years at the West Coast Game Park in Bandon on the Oregon coast, 3 of which I held the position of Head Handler and Trainer. I have extensive training and experience in caring for all types of exotic animals both in a work setting and a home setting, providing daily care ranging from feeding, cleaning, area and enclosure maintenance, medical care, and behavioral training to simple enrichment time spent socializing with animals of all types. I was responsibly for the 24 hour care of many of the animals born at the park and for the first 2-5 months of their lives was with them 24 hrs a day, taking them home with me after work hours and returning with them to work the next day. I provided care to many animals including but not limited to tigers, lions, cougars, leopards, bobcats, lynx, bears, wallabies, foxes, coati mundis, lemurs and other various primates, deer, goats, sheep, llamas, raccoons, opossums, skunks and other small mammals. I was responsible for the planning of many different dietary plans depending on specific species requirements and effectively following these plans to maintain the health and wellness of all animals directly under my care. I spent many hours working on behavioral training and socialization of these animals to ensure their future success while in the care of staff at not only our park, but any future staff they may encounter if sent off to other parks that ours worked with throughout the U.S. Not only do I love working in a setting with animals, but I carry my love for animals over to my private life where my family and I enjoy keeping as many pets as we can at home to enjoy our home with.
