Dog Daycare Attendant Job at Waghouse Dog Daycare

Waghouse Dog Daycare Sykesville, MD 21784

**Please read entire job description before applying. Answer any questions and make sure this job sounds right for you!**

Waghouse Dog Daycare is a new small business in Eldersburg, MD having opened in September 2022. We are creative, innovative, fun and our goal is to provide a safe and fun environment for groups of dogs to play, inside and outside, and interact with each other and our staff.

Our work environment includes:

  • Flexible working hours
  • Lively atmosphere
  • Casual work attire
  • Dog snuggles

Waghouse Dog Daycare is looking to hire a new canine handler to their team.

Please include Resume and References.

Experience is a major plus when applying so please point out your strengths and experience in working with dogs especially if it has been in a dog daycare setting.

We are looking to start with a staff that has experience in gauging dog behavior and dog group behaviors. Training will be provided as well to all hired staff members and staff will be required to complete a dog training course within the first month of hiring.

We would like to ensure we are not hiring and training those who will be unhappy with the tasks at hand shortly after they begin because of an unrealistic idea of what caring for large amounts of dogs in a daycare setting is like. It is pertinent that applicants understand that although the main focus is interacting and playing with the dogs, there are certainly unpleasant/dirty and what can feel like tedious jobs that are necessary to complete daily and often in our dog daycare. Some of these tasks include cleaning up large amounts of feces and urine almost constantly, being on your feet for long hours, on alert to gauge dog behaviors and prevent negative dog interactions, jumping into a situation of a negative dog reaction immediately, trash emptying several times daily, laundry, dish washing, mopping, sweeping, vacuuming, and more.

We want our facility to be clean, comfortable, and safe for our staff and dog buddies, but that requires someone who is not afraid of consistent hard work, dedication and is also mature enough to handle it all and be reliable.

You also will be having to let the dogs outside in certain rainy, cold, or hot weather conditions to go to the bathroom. These are short but necessary trips and you must be able to function in this setting to keep the dogs safe and the environment sanitary.

Shifts currently begin at 6:30am, 7am and 8am for morning shifts, and 1pm, 1:30pm, or 4pm for afternoon to closing and closing shifts end at around 6:30pm after we close at 6pm.

The main position itself is a Dog Caretaker/Attendant with the possibility of bathing dogs and definite cleaning. Canine Caretakers are required to take daily photos of the dogs to be able to be posted for their owners on social media.

Upon applying, please let me know the following:

  • The days and times you are available to work.
  • The hours, both minimum and maximum you are looking to work.
  • The wages you are looking to receive.

Hours available are currently PART TIME around 10-25 hours. If you are only available full time you are still encouraged to apply but please make this clear.

Job Type: Part-time

Pay: $13.00 - $14.00 per hour

Benefits:

  • Employee discount
  • Flexible schedule

Schedule:

  • Day shift
  • Evening shift
