Does anyone know how to get/of a job anywhere near Madison, WI, to work with dogs (no prior experience)?
I recently applied to Ruffin' It Resort. (A dog hotel/day care) I sent a resume like they asked. No reply. It's been a week and they did say they were hiring. I know one of my friends works at a local vet hospital. She does very minor jobs like hold the dogs while they get their shots, cleaning, and other things. I've tried calling her to ask how in the world she got it, but she got a new number. Someone else owns hers now. Does anyone know of or can find a job opp with dogs in Middleton or Madison WI or even somewhere farther but still close, that I could apply for. With no prior experience besides caring for my own dogs. (literally, I love my dogs to death, they are my lives, my only friends.) And other pets. I've had much experience with a variety of pets plus taking care of my friends dog while he went on vacation for 3 months in Korea. If you don't know specifically where in madison/middleton WI I could get a job with no prior experience... In general, what jobs could I get, that include working with dogs? Thank you in advance! :) To davina spear...... -_- I swear there are yahoo robots on here. I already spent much time with my dad's help on a resume that I ALREADY sent to them. Read the question. Yes, I am 18. I may sound young but if you look at my asked question history, I've asked much regaurding jobs and resumes. My only job was at a retirement home and I worked there over a year. If my mom wasn't good family friends with the boss, I probably wouldn't have got it. Besides that I do have great knowledge of dog behaviors, training tactics, and an utmost love and intrest for them. I'm not sure why some days I spend hours watching animal cops on aninal planet. maybe because I'm so captivated by the hard work they so saving so many dogs, cats, and other animals. My dream job I want animals involved that's certain.

Answer 2 :
Davina and Sofia were not direct responses to your question, they were spam. You sound a little younger than 18, so that's why people may not be responsive. You want to deal with animals, an animals bite. It's a risk employers may not want to take with someone under 18. If you're over 18, there are probably a few dozen places that would be interested in you. Pet stores like Pets Mart, veterinarian clinics, boarding kennels, dog walking services (something you could do/ start on your own), pet sitting (you could do that too), pet groomers, animal shelters, Humane Societies (this one has a down-side that they would explain to you), even, believe it or not, doggy-doo services, where you go to peoples homes and clean up after Rufus. It does pay well, and there are several companies that franchise this (Duty Calls, Doggy Doo, etc.). You have to google each term along with the word Madison WI for your area, and I'm sure you'll find plenty of businesses to call on. You're going to have to call on them, many of these businesses are run by family members, and usually hire someone in the family when an opening occurs. Write up a short resume, even if you've never worked before, just tell of your interest and love of pets, and hand-deliver them to any of the places you would LIKE to work at. Tell them when you're available to work, and anything else that may make you stand out. When you find a way to make money at something you love, it beats something that just gives you a paycheck. Good luck! Be persistent! BTW: My dad was part owner in a kennel, much like a Humane Society, and by 8 I was cleaning dog and cat cages and pen (about a hundred cats in a pen at a time, oh joy!), showed dogs and cats for sale, went on calls to pick up stray pets and animals, dealt with deer, ducks, peacocks, pigeons, bats, rats, raccoon's, 'possums, skunks, snakes, squirrels, rabbits, pigs, horses, cows, monkeys in a tree, chimpanzees that loved you then bit you, and even a shark, all before 12 years old. It was interesting. I don't know if I would do it again. (forgot to add, it was so long ago that I was paid about $10 a week for all of that work, and that was a lot of money to an 8-10 year old, not so much at 12).
