Pet Grooming Career

pet grooming career
Interested in pet care industry?

I am currently in college, majoring in sociology and I have a particular interest in pet care and would like to pursue a career path in that direction. I am not particularly interested in veterinary sciences or technology, but I do enjoy interaction with animals and would perhaps like to begin a pet sitting service eventually. I am currently employed in kennel as a supervisor and can see prospects in grooming and other areas that appeals to pet owners.

Most jobs in these areas are hands-on and on the job training, a college degree isn't very necessary for any of this stuff, but is there any schooling or other tips that could help me in this career direction? A change in major? Any tips, suggestions, or info is appreciated. Thanks.

Some business courses might be helpful as far as keeping books/records; being an employer/management; investments; marketing, etc.

I read an article about a lady who does pet sitting, cake decorating, house sitting, errands for others and so on. She's one busy lady, which is a good thing. She learned many skills, and has put them to use for a profit!

What about some animal behavior or obedience training courses????
