Summary

My experience is mostly in retail, but working in these positions has made me a hard and dedicated worker who can get things done in a timely manner even in stressful situations. I'm also very punctual and arrive to my shifts on time since I have my own vehicle and live nearby in Eagle River.

I'm a thorough cleaner and will clean up any mess that I am asked to, no matter how bad it is. I've been petsitting a lot over the last few years and know how to take care of animals both large and small.
