Pavlov seeks an animal care technician to clean and perform clerical duties in South West Denver. As an animal care technician, you'll assist dog trainers with opening, closing, cleaning, and any. The kennel technician will also book boarding and, therefore, must be professional in their writing and when speaking with clients. This position includes animal care, including feeding, cleaning, tending to the facility, taking dogs to the vet, tending to social media, managing play groups, clerical work, and any and all duties associated with working in a board-and-train facility. This position reports to the Lead Dog Trainer and Dog Training Manager. This position is a gateway position with the potential opportunity for promotion to a dog trainer position.

WHY PAVLOV?

Join a bright and fun team of high-performing dog trainers! Pavlov is the most Google-reviewed dog training company in Colorado and the most reviewed on Yelp. We also maintain a 4.9-5.0 star status on both platforms. Pavlov dog trainers appreciate continuing education through regular team meetups and ongoing support and coaching. Full benefits include medical, dental, vision, life insurance, retirement, and 3% matching retirement, and fourteen days of paid time off.

Opportunity exists for advancement and growth, as this is our entry-level position. Those who do well advance according to their drive and ability. High performers move on to shadow our trainers and learn how to train dogs from the highest-rated dog trainers in Denver Metro. Alternatively, people pay $40K for a formal dog training school. So while the position has full benefits, the major benefit is exposure and learning from the industry's top performers.
