Summary

As a passionate animal lover with a strong desire to pursue a career in veterinary nursing, I am excited to apply for an animal assistant position. With my upcoming enrollment in the Animal Studies Cert III course starting in January, I am eager to gain hands-on experience and skills.

As an enthusiastic volunteer at the RSPCA, I have had the privilege of spending time with dogs and gaining valuable experience walking and caring for them. This role has not only allowed me to develop my communication skills and build confidence, but also provided me with a deeper understanding of animal behavior and welfare.
