Pros

You get to interact with many different animals, mainly dogs and cats but I had a bearded dragon come in, rats, a parrot Most of all the customers were nice and interesting to talk too You have the ability to make an animal just a bit happier and healthier The staff was really nice and kind and really cared

Cons

Athough most of the customers were really enjoyable the ones who who not were evil Although you see how many people do truly care about their pets ( not based on how much one spent, just by the demeanour and affection) and who does not and it can be sad. Working part time sometimes I only got one or two shifts a week Made about $200-$310 / week
