We offer 24/7/365 industry leading care to dogs in our communities.

We take great pride in what we do so our new team members must be excited and prepared to work hard!

What we're looking for:

We're looking for Animal passionate people who can work hard but play hard to. While we have fun at what we do, there's no question its hard work. We are looking for dedicated, punctual people who have an attention to detail and LOVE ANIMALS! We prefer candidates to have prior experience with dogs in a shelter, dog boarding facility or veterinary hospital. You have to be okay with getting dirty. We want you to be able to roll up your sleeves and get right into it. This job isn't for someone who just wants to pet and cuddle puppies, while we get to do a lot of that, there is a lot of hard work that goes on behind the scenes.
Candidates will have strong guest service skills as well as high attention to detail. The care and safety of the animals left in our care is our number one priority. These candidates will be able to quickly adapt to an ever changing environment, remember its dogs, and be able to prioritize quickly. These candidates will have a high sense of urgency and be able to understand their role within the operations of our building. These candidates will understand that our first responsibility is to our guests (both two and four legged) and will have the sense of ethics to do what is right for them. These candidates will be able to organize their time and their work areas for maximum efficiency. These candidates report to the Manager.
