Pinellas Animal Foundation – Pet Professor

Teaching elementary school children about responsible pet care, safety and ownership.

The Pet ProfessorSM Program Educates Over 2,000 Children in Pinellas County Classrooms Annually

The Pet ProfessorSM Program is the cornerstone of our commitment to educating future generations. The curriculum includes respecting animals, responsible pet ownership, and safety when dealing with animals. Students recite the Jr. Pet ProfessorSM Oath. This hands-on program presents practical lessons that provides students with an opportunity to interact with a live animal.

We can use volunteers and their pets for this important program. If you might enjoy teaching the great lesson of responsible pet ownership to children ages 5-11 in Pinellas County schools click here for more information about volunteering.

Pet Professor In School Program

Specially trained volunteers and their screened pets comprise this elite team of Pinellas Pet Education Partnership teachers who visit nearly 1,000 classrooms annually. Using a fun curriculum of interactive practical lessons, this program’s goal is to teach responsible pet ownership to elementary school children in grades Kindergarten thru Third.

Teachers administer to children a 12-part “Junior Pet Professor Safety Oath” to encourage a commitment to respect all animals. Junior Pet Professors often help other family members and friends to enjoy a safe and loving relationship with a family pet. Partnerships include: Edna’s Pet Professor; Edna Klauser Trust, Humane Society of North Pinellas; Pinellas County Animal Services; Pinellas County School Speaker’s Bureau; Pinellas County Veterinary Medical Society, SPCA of Pinellas County, SPC-Veterinary Technology Program.

Pet Professor Jennelle Miller and “Grizzly”

Over the last 24 years, I have worked in various veterinary hospitals- from kennel technician to certified veterinary technician, and finally escalated my career with becoming an adjunct professor of veterinary nursing classes. I currently work at SPC, Pima Medical Institute, and FVTA. In addition, I am the lead instructor that oversees the volunteers with Bowser Ball.

In my personal life, I have a husband and a 5 year old son. I enjoy reading, going to the gym, spending time with family and friends, and relaxing.
