What are the responsibilities and job description for the Dog Boarding Overnight Attendant! (Some dayside availability needed) position at The Village Pup?
We are an established, reputable doggie daycare and boarding facility that is currently seeking a friendly, hard-working, caring "night owl" to join our amazing team as an overnight boarding attendant. The ideal candidate is open-minded, coachable, and eager to learn, with a great work ethic. We are looking for someone who gets along well with others, responds well to constructive feedback, is not afraid to get their hands dirty, and has a high regard for punctuality and timeliness.
Experience is not required, but a love for dogs, a positive team-oriented mindset, and a commitment to excellence is!
We are looking to chat with full-time or part-time candidates who have a strong interest in working our overnight boarding shift, which typically runs from 10pm to 7am.
**For training purposes, all candidates for this position MUST HAVE DAY SHIFT AVAILABILITY FOR THE FIRST 12 WEEKS OF EMPLOYMENT!**
This is a fast-paced, mentally and physically challenging position that requires lots of standing and walking and being actively engaged with pups of all sizes throughout your shift (and in all weather). And while, yes, it is incredibly rewarding working with pups all day, by no means does it involve simply cuddling pups all day long. This position requires a problem-solving mentality, an engaged mind, and a strong ability to multi-task, because there is a lot of behind-the-scenes work and strategy that goes into ensuring that our pups have a positive, safe, fun time with us.
We provide you:
- An environment with a fun, passionate team of professionals
- Competitive pay with medical, dental and vision benefits
- Advancement and rewards for the right candidate
Our expectations for you:
- Monitor the pups and ensure safe play
- Provide a sanitary and healthy environment for daycare & boarding
- Interact with clients about their dog's activities
- Compassionate, calm, comfortable and patient
- Reliable and punctual
- Interest in learning canine body language
- Able to initiate tasks and successfully complete independently
- Feeding and medicating
- Bathing and/or light grooming/brushing
- Do temperament tests
- Communicate with clients regarding their dog's needs
- All other additional tasks related to doggy daycare & boarding
If you think a challenging, rewarding position like this sounds like something you'd be interested in, we look forward to hearing from you!
