Animal care

[Jj2431]

Any ideas how I can get into this field either working in kennels/catteries or dog walking/boarding etc. I have a basic qualification in animal care but that's it. Seems like jobs working with animals are few and far between

I did work experience in kennels years ago and I think the problem is there's not much money in it so they can't take many staff on. It might be worth ringing around a few local ones to see if they need any holiday cover or relief staff. A day here and there might help gain that experience.
Add to that people aren't holidaying much this year and the rise of "home-boarders" means you might struggle at this time.
Good luck though, you might even want to set up your own dog walking business. Lots of lockdown puppies will soon need walkers once their owners are back at work.x
