Currently, I have one full time position available or two/three part time positions (Flexible 10-40 hours a week) for someone with a passion for puppies, adult dogs, and caring for each baby as if they are their own! If selected for this position, you will be working daily with puppies( 1 day old to adult age) in a puppy studio built for the needs of my babies! You do not need any prior experience working as animal care, however it is preferred you are extra comfortable with dogs. All dogs are roughly 20 pounds and under, work with large breed dog is not involved in this position.
All training will be provided on every aspect of the job - I enjoy building a relationship with my employee that fosters growth, understanding, and comfort to achieve an environment that continuously reduces anxiety (ideally, no anxiety at all) for both the humans and canines who work/live in it. Once training is complete, this is an independent position that relies heavily on the employees ability to make the environment and duties at hand their own pride and passion. While I am ALWAYS available to help, train, teach, guide, and mentor, you will be spending most of your time bonding and working with the dogs independently while providing proper care, love, and fun!
Please read below for further information regarding this position, I will be happy to answer any remaining questions moving forward!
