Hello! You will receive many opinions and different responses to this question. The working conditions of working with animals vary based on different personalities and situations. Why not volunteer or work part-time in an animal hospital, shadow a veterinarian, and such to experience the environment for yourself? Exploring this field before committing to it would be a valuable experience for you and you can learn about yourself in the process. I know many animal lovers who work in animal shelters or clinics and there are always different responses about their workday; some people are stressed out because of the animal-owners, some are enjoying it daily because they can handle challenges, etc. I would definitely recommend that you see first-hand different scenarios and different environments - clinics, hospitals, private offices, shelters, etc. to explore your interest.
