What will I do?
- Set up/break-down play yard drinking stations, play equipment, supply stations and communication boards daily
- Play with and engage with up to 25 dogs daily of varying sizes, breeds, and temperaments. (No breed restrictions here!)
- Ensure dog’s play and resting areas are clean and well maintained inside and outside
- Assisting with dishes, laundry, feedings and other caretaking items as needed

At Camp Bow Wow, we understand the importance of a positive work-life balance, putting the needs of our people first, is the only way we can provide the best care to our Pet Parents and Campers.
Our team is made up of part and full time employees; we’re proud to offer flexibility in scheduling so our employees can prioritize what is most important to them. Paid sick time accrual occurs for all employees and Paid time off (PTO) accrual occurs for our full time employees. This time away from work, ensures our employees have time to spend with friends and family, to help them stay refreshed in their roles as dog caretakers. Thinking ahead for the future is just as important as day to day, and we are happy to extend the offer of a company 401 (k) match.
Camp Bow Wow has a supportive team of like-minded dog lovers, who ultimately seek to provide the best care to our furry Campers and have fun while getting paid.
