Sells pets and pet-related products
Pet stores sell pet food and pet supplies in addition to the creatures that will become pets. Pet store staff are in charge of selling these items. Since they deal with living creatures, they are required to take care of them (feeding, disposal of excrement, cleaning of cages, etc.) and manage their health on a daily basis. They also give advice on how to raise and train pets so that owners and pets can build a better relationship. Therefore, knowledge about living creatures and the ability to communicate with customers are required.
ペットショップスタッフになるには？必要な資格・役立つ知識もチェックしよう！
Obtain certification in living organisms at a technical school or other institution.
No specific qualifications are required to become a pet store staff member. It may be advantageous to attend a vocational school where you can learn about pets and obtain a certification as a pet caretaker (Level 1 and Level 2 are available) or a trimmer certified by the Japan Pet Owners and Pet Caretakers Association. This is because specialized knowledge of living creatures is required and the number of pet stores offering trimming services is increasing. Recently, pet stores can be divided into two main categories: large stores that sell a wide variety of living creatures and specialty stores that specialize in particular species, such as reptiles and insects. Both types of shops require a broad knowledge of living creatures and related products, as well as a spirit of service to customers. There are already a significant number of pet stores, and new staffing is difficult to find unless there are vacancies. Check frequently for information in stores, on websites, and on job sites.

While it can be said that the field of activity for pet store staff is expanding, customers are demanding more from their staff, so it will be necessary for them to continue their studies to acquire more advanced expertise and skills.
