- 12-hour shifts (11 paid hours) with a 1-hour lunch (12 to 1) and two paid 15-minute breaks.

- After the 90-day working interview: raises, PTO, paid sick leave and a Roth IRA.

- Make the calls on the floor and keep the day on schedule.
- Make sure the daily checklist and closing checks get done right, every time.
- Check in and check out dogs, answer the phone and handle client questions.
- Clean, feed and give medications, hands-on all day.
- Help run our enrichment days.
- Help train new team members as we grow.
What we're looking for:
- You've run a shift before, in any industry: restaurant, retail, warehouse, kennel or clinic.
- Reliable and on time, every shift.
- Stays calm and makes decisions when things get busy.
- Comfortable with upset customers.
- Calm and confident with big, pushy or nervous dogs.
- Comfortable with our handling style: reward and praise first, calm fair corrections when needed.
- Looking for a long-term job.
The physical side:

- Lift and carry 50 lbs (food bags, trash, dogs into the tub).
- Indoors and out, in heat, cold and wet weather.
