As a Dogdrop Droperator, your focus day-to-day will be to monitor and manage the dogs in our care in order to ensure the safety and health of the overall group and each individual dog. Part of that care will require keeping the facility clean and orderly on a daily basis.
About You:

• You have experience interacting with dogs and would never intentionally harm an animal

• You're quick to grab a mop or pick up after a dog (or even 10!) and are proficient in following cleaning protocols and checklists
• You possess a basic understanding of dog behavior and are eager to learn the Dogdrop approach
• You can manage your own stress levels in noisy and high-energy environments
