Job Summary
We are looking for a dedicated Kennel Assistant to be the backbone of our daily animal care operations. In this role, you aren’t just a caretaker; you are a companion to the animals in our charge. You will ensure every guest is happy, healthy, and safe by managing their daily routines—from feeding and exercise to maintaining a pristine environment. You'll work within a well experienced team who's top priority is our guest safety, closely followed by fun.
Since we pride ourselves on transparency with our clients, you will use our dedicated "Pet Parent" software to document each animal's day along with our physical monitoring system. The ideal candidate is someone who balances a deep love for animals with the discipline to maintain high standards of cleanliness and record-keeping.
