Responsibilities:
• Become a celebrity in the eyes of adorable dogs and cats. They'll greet you like a rock star.

• Engage in epic battles with bath-time-resistant pups.

• Provide emotional support for homesick furballs and listen intently to their dramatic tales of separation anxiety.
Other Responsibilities:

• Develop biceps of steel from lifting and handling various sized animals.

• The stamina to be on your feet for extended periods.
• Excellent communication skills.
• A sense of humor and the ability to laugh off the occasional "accident".
• Previous experience in animal care is a bonus, but not required, our four legged (occasionally 3 legged) guests will train you 😜.
Benefits:
• Competitive pay.
• Paid time off.
• The warm fuzzies you get from helping our furry guests.
• The chance to work with an awesome team.
