Position Overview & Specifications
We have a rare opportunity for the right person to start or continue a career working with dogs in a positive and enriching setting. Our day care centre is a dog's paradise. Set in 60 acres of private land, we have a converted stone barn that is used as our base with indoor activity areas, dedicated snooze rooms, filled with fun and exciting equipment that you will use to mentally and physically stimulate the dogs in your group. We also use our fenced fields to exercise them outside during different parts of the day.
You will be responsible for a group of up to 9 dogs, ensuring they are kept safe and happy as they follow the schedule of the day.
We are dedicated to offering first class customer service. We go above and beyond to make sure the dogs that come to us are having a great time and we work hard to integrate all dogs in to their groups, ensuring they are happy in them and are getting the most from their time with us. We take regular pictures and videos to show owners. An ability to communicate with owners face to face during collections or drop offs is also essential.
Minimum 2 years experience working with dogs is essential. If you own or have owned your own dog/s and are absolutely besotted with them, then you are the right person for this role. We are a team of dog lovers and working with them only drives this passion! We are looking for someone who shares this infatuation and would like to earn whilst indulging it. If this sounds good to you then please apply.
