Steve’s Answer

You may consider becoming a VET AID, where you help doctors and customers with pets. I noticed that when I visit the VET the first most friendly face in the VET AID, who helps get things ready for the doctor. When I speak to these AIDS I find that they really enjoy helping the animals and their owners.


Best wishes to you.

Bryce’s Answer

Hi Sara,

There are multiple jobs that would not only allow you to work with animals, but people as well. A few right off the top of my head are zookeeper/zoo worker, aquarium worker, pet/animal trainer, or anyjob at a vet or animal shelter. All these opportunities would give you a fulfilling experience both with the opportunity to work with and impact the lives of animals and still have the opportunity to interact with people. I am sure there are many more opportunities out there (those were just ones I am familiar with). I definitely recommend doing a little more research into the opportunities I suggested and other ones that you find, to really find the right fit yourself. Best of luck!

Sarah’s Answer

If you're interested in learning about different types of jobs that deal with helping animals or people, using LinkedIn to network and message people to hear about their experiences will help you make a path to your career and figure out what you want to do. People love to talk about what they do as well as help others succeed. You could look into healthcare, social work, veterinary practices, conservation, environmentalism, etc!

Krishna’s Answer

Hi Sara,

There are an ample about of opportunities available for people like you! You could go into veterinary practices or zoology if you want to focus more on animals. As far as helping people, I suggest looking into social work, political science, healthcare, etc. The options are endless. I suggest networking with people in fields that interest you to understand more about the work and whether or not it is the right fit for you. Best of luck!

Muskaan’s Answer

Hi Sara,

I see that other answers cover up most of the jobs/areas, so I'd pick one which I didn't see and which is actually very important.

Combining the 2 things you love the most, I think you should check about "Animal Science" in education, which may lead you to a career as a Wildlife Conservationist.

Future For Nature is one organization I know of which supports young, talented, and ambitious conservationists committed to protecting species of wild animals and plants, and there are many more in every country.

With your love for animals, you can pursue this and it will, in turn, help mankind and the earth to be a better place

Hope this helps and broadens your career opportunities.
