Doggy Daycare Attendant

***Please read all information carefully, let us know if you have any questions!***

We are looking for an experienced and enthusiastic Dog Daycare Attendant to join our team at Paws 'n Pads! The successful candidate will be responsible for providing care and supervision for dogs in our daycare facility, including feeding, exercising, and playing with the animals. We also foster cats and kittens for a local rescue, ideal candidates can assist with care for them as well. They will also be responsible for cleaning and maintaining the facility, as well as monitoring the health and safety of all the animals in their care. The ideal candidate should have a genuine love of animals and a strong commitment to providing exceptional customer service.

Responsibilities:

• Monitor the health and safety of all dogs in the daycare.
• Provide positive reinforcement and guidance to all dogs in the daycare.
• Clean up after the dogs and maintain a safe and sanitary environment.
• Ensure that all dogs are properly socialized with other dogs in the daycare.
• Feed all animals regular meals and administer medications.
• Enforce safety rules and regulations.

*Starting wages for general staff, Doggy Daycare Attendant, are between $13-$15 based on experience and availability (Do you have experience at a Doggy Daycare? Are you available for part-time or full-time hours and how flexible is your schedule?)

*Paid Training and Stay 60 days to get a Raise (after review)

*References required, please provide contacts and the best way to reach them

*Must be 18 or older

*We are open on holidays so all employees are required to work some holidays, we want to make it fair for everyone to take turns working each holiday (example: if you don't work Thanksgiving you will likely have to work Christmas Day)

*Flexible shift options available including Overnights

*We can schedule shifts around school and other job schedules, but must provide a set schedule for availability - must have 2 weeks notice for requests off outside of your set availability (not all requests can be guaranteed if there are prior requests, etc.)

*Looking for diligent employees that do not call off or change availability frequently, it is very hard to get shifts covered and we need to have people on-site to care for the dogs!

*This is a very physical and messy job: Requires interaction with dogs of all sizes, bruises and scratches will happen! Requires lots of cleaning up after the dogs and around the facility - including: mopping accidents, scooping poops, washing dishes and laundry, scrubbing floors and walls, dusting and wiping surfaces, cleaning bathroom, etc.

*Must have reliable transportation (this can greatly affect scheduling and no-shows that can't get covered)

*Non-smokers only (smell irritates the dogs, customers, and fellow employees)

Please fill out the application here, we will be going through applications and contacting candidates over the next few days. We will message you through Indeed or contact the number provided to schedule interviews. Give us a call if you have any questions about the position at 734-340-2270.

Thank you for your consideration!
