Kennel Technician (Pet Pro)

Join Our Pet-Loving Team

Do you love working with dogs and cats? Want to be part of a trusted team that makes pets feel safe, loved, and at home?

We’re looking for a Full-Time Kennel Technician (internally called a Pet Pro) to join our team and care for our furry guests at their home away from home.

Who We Are

NVA Pet Resorts is part of National Veterinary Associates (NVA) — the largest private owner of veterinary hospitals and pet resorts in North America, with 1,300 locations.

Monitoring pet health, behavior, and interactions

Documenting care notes and communicating with leadership

Engaging pets in enrichment activities like fetch, walks, and basic obedience games

Comforting shy guests and managing high-energy groups

Laundry and general facility upkeep

And yes — you’ll scoop poop, clean messes, o home with fur on your clothes, and probably get plenty of sloppy kisses.

Passionate about dogs and cats

Gentle, patient, and safety-focused

Comfortable supervising multiple dogs at once

Able to recognize and prevent conflicts in playgroups

Detail-oriented with strong documentation habits
