Let's Talk Scheduling!
We're open 6 AM–6:00 PM, 365 days a year because dogs don't take holidays!

WEEKEND AND HOLIDAY AVAILABILITY IS REQUIRED!
We do our best to rotate schedules fairly. Our team typically gets one weekend day off per week and at least one full weekend off per month, depending on staffing.
Still Wagging Your Tail?
This job is messy, loud, physically demanding, and sometimes downright chaotic.
But it's also full of goofy dogs, happy tails, slobbery kisses, and the satisfaction of knowing you're making a difference in their day.
We're not looking for someone who just loves dogs. We're looking for someone who loves dogs AND loves to WORK!
