During a period from [Start Date] to [End Date], I took time off to focus on family commitments. During this time, I also leveraged my passion for animals by working as a professional dog sitter through Rover.com. This experience, while unconventional, further honed my skills in responsibility, time management, and client communication, as I was solely responsible for the care and well-being of various dogs and consistently communicated with their owners to ensure their peace of mind. This period reinforced my dedication to providing exceptional care and understanding individual needs, which I believe aligns perfectly with Chewy's commitment to pet parents.
