Write that you have been a life-long pet owner and animal lover, which will count as experience dealing with animals. You can include the names and ages of your pets. For example, "My dog Beau is an 8-year old border collie and I've had him since he was a puppy. He loves to play frisbee with me." If you ever get stuck and want to have a really excellent cover letter, I can write one for you. Please see my site at http://karenbrunkeneedsajob.webs.com/apps/webstore/.
