DOG WALKER
Summary

I am a hard working, ambitious student who is eager to learn and work while earning my degree. I have 1 year experience in retail as well as experience in house sitting and dog walking. I also have a handful of experience in catering and volunteering. I am an open and positive communicator and can handle difficult situations using a calm and level-headed approach while meeting a customers needs. While working in retail,I became skilled at connecting with people and promoting products. I am experienced in maintaining stock, setting up promotions and merchandising items and I am trained in using a cash register or computer. I have trained multiple employees as well. As a former volunteer and as a caterer, I have multiple years of experience with food handling, managing ingredient preparation, trash removal and other needs with little supervision. House sitting and catering provided me with excellent time management skills and personal responsibility. I am adaptable and driven with a strong work ethic and ability to thrive in team-based or individually motivated settings.
