- Developing Training Plans : Identify each dog’s specific needs and behavioral challenges (including but not limited to proper socialization, separation anxiety, hyperactivity, etc.) and set achievable goals, documenting their progress.
- Communication : Staying in constant communication with pet parents about their dogs’ progress; identifying additional behavioral concerns and discussing with pet owners; scheduling and confirming training appointments when needed.
- Basic Obedience : Teaching dogs to obey basic commands using various training techniques that are best suited to each dog’s personality and attributes.
- Keep a Clean Workspace : Ensure that the training areas are kept clean and tidy.
- Integration : Work directly within our pet resort to ensure that pet clients can thrive in all areas of our care, including daycare, boarding and grooming, and working with staff in these areas to create comprehensive plans to meet these goals.
- Client Education : Teaching pet parents appropriate training methods to enforce and maintain the behaviors and skills learned by their dogs during training sessions.
Please note that the above-listed duties and responsibilities are the basic requirements for this role and may be modified, expanded, or reduced based on the evolving needs of the company.
