Pet Hotel Associate Jobs (NOW HIRING)

We are urgently seeking hard-working, self-motivated, and passionate dog lovers to join our professional behind-the-scenes squad!! Our Operations Department has two different positions available.

As a Guest Services associate, you will be part of our back-of-house department and responsible for providing the highest quality of care to all our four-legged guests! Using a combination of state-of-the-art equipment and eco-friendly chemicals, you will be responsible for maintaining industry-leading cleaning and sanitizing standards. Additionally, you will ensure all our guests receive meals, medications, exercise, and love!

In joining our team, you will receive on-the-job, ultramodern training in dog body language, pack behavior, social group management, and safe handling protocols. We offer a friendly, welcoming, work environment and a strong team of dedicated canine lovers! We are requiring reliable individuals that have a positive attitude, good work ethic, and a willingness to roll up their sleeves and get dirty!

The positions are physically demanding and require you to be on your feet for long periods of time. A successful candidate will be a significant canine lover, pay excellent attention to detail, set and maintain high standards for sanitation and cleanliness, and have the exceptional ability to multitask, time manage, and adapt to change.
