Default Cesar Millan: Dog Whisperer...

What does a (human) role for an Elohite of Animals look like?

I don't think Cesar Milan would be it, he's far to personable. I imagine he's a Soldier working with an Elohite, but definitely not one himself

Well they have an affinity for Reptiles and Arid environments, so likely a Parks & Wildlife Ranger from one of the desert sates posabaly of Indigenous heritage.

an other could be an Artist who's "Dropped Out" of normal society to paint the "High Deserts" so they get to pop up anywhere for a Charity event, Gallery opening or University lecture.

Another potential Jordite in the flesh: Victoria Stillwell from the British TV series It's Me or the Dog. It's a terrible shame that the core rulebooks made that rule associating each Choir with a specific group of animals; Ms. Stillwell acts like an Elohite onscreen, handling human and canine emotions equally well without getting swept up by passion herself. She lays down rules and warns about consequences in a very no-nonsense way...more level-headed, Power-like analyst than preachy, Virtue-like avenger. (Stillwell would make a good starting point for designing a hypothetical Angel of Pet Trainers, in fact.)

Elohim can be personable, especially if that's the objective best way to achieve their goals. If you want one that works with reptiles, part of me could see the late Steve "Crikey!" Irwin in the Role.

The biggest challenge about a human Role for a servant of Animals is that, while they're potentially a great bridge for understanding, they also have to accept animals on their own terms rather than anthropomorphizing, and persuade others to do the same. (That's one reason I named Irwin -- genuine respect and appreciation for what an animal species could do.)
