What are the responsibilities and job description for the Dog Daycare Driver position at Hudson Valley Dog House?
We are seeking a dedicated and compassionate Dog Daycare Driver to join our team. In this role, you will be responsible for providing safe, relaxing and timely transportation for our boarding dogs in our company van.
You will interact with dogs of various breeds and sizes, ensuring their well-being while also delivering excellent customer service to their owners.
* You must have experience with and be comfortable driving a large vehicle (Ford Transport Passenger van).
* You must have experience with and be comfortable driving in NYC as well as the major highways en route to NYC.
* You must be comfortable with dogs. The position involves handing leashed dogs and their belongings over to their owners, as well as taking the arriving dogs into the van. Most of the dogs ride in crates.
* You must have good communicationskills and customer service. We have a very loyal and regular client base who expect their dogs to be in good and safe hands at all times.
This position involves driving our company van and following the same schedule to a small handful of fixed locations in NYC, and handing dogs over one at a time to their owners at the group pick up stops.
We transport dogs to and from NYC on Monday, Wednesday and Friday every week. The shift start time is 9:45 am at our boarding facility in Sussex county, NJ. The shift ends between 3 and 4 pm once you arrive back at our boarding facility. It is important to get the dogs to and from camp as quickly and safely as possibly for their well being.
We have an almost entirely closed group of regular boarding dogs, so the clients and dogs are familiar with the process. It’s uncommon to have new dogs joining, and clients can typically put their own dogs in crates if needed.
