How Do I Use the Site?

Have fun and learn. Let me know if you are looking for something and don't see it--or you have something to add.

 

The site is not a substitute for legal, medical and other expertise. Recommendations, advice, etc. may not apply in your situation. Do your due diligence. We try our best to avoid, but cannot be responsible for, errors.

​

I've Never Had a Job With Animals. Where Do I Start?

If you don't know what you would like to do, start by looking over the lists of jobs. Write down any that seem interesting and learn more about them. If you have a sense of what you want to do, use the site to develop a targeted resume that reflects your skills and passions.

​

Is There a Fee?

There is no fee for people to use the site.
