What life as a Kennel Attendant looks like:

Our specialists truly love our furry guests of all shapes and sizes, and are able to handle each with control, calm discipline, and positivity. As a specialist, you will be moving and grooving all day long, squatting, stooping, bending, lifting, cleaning, scooping, vacuuming, etc.

The time flies as you put your heart and mind into keeping our place and our pet friends in tip-top shape! You will bathe, feed, walk, and monitor our guests closely to ensure they are eating well and are well-adjusted while in our care.

You will also get the opportunity to show potential customers around our facilities with enthusiasm and pride.
