Seeking advice on tailoring my resume for animal shelter roles

I'm currently in the process of shifting my career from accounting to working in an animal shelter. I've primarily held office jobs with experience in clerical work and reception, but I'm finding it challenging to get my foot in the door at animal shelters. Despite my relevant skills, I've faced multiple rejections and I'm wondering how to tailor my resume to better fit this new direction. I understand that my clerical and reception experience could be beneficial since shelters have a lot of administrative tasks, but I feel my resume is too focused on office work. I'm hesitant to share my resume for feedback, but I'm open to any tips on how to frame my existing skills in a way that highlights their relevance to animal care. Additionally, if I have any informal volunteer experience with animals, should I include that as well? Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
