Summary

As a Pet Care Associate at PetSmart, I managed the comprehensive care of diverse species, including fish, reptiles, birds, and small mammals. I was responsible for maintaining high sanitation standards and ensuring a safe environment through habitat maintenance and equipment care. In the Sick Room, I provided specialized care for recovering animals by maintaining detailed medical charts, where I accurately tracked weights, hydration, and behavioral notes. I meticulously administered prescribed medications on a strict schedule, documenting both timing and treatment response. Additionally, I served as a expert for customers, providing detailed education on habitat setup and care requirements to ensure successful pet ownership.
