This shift will be daytime. Our hours are 9:30am-5:30pm Mon-Sat. & 12n-5pm Sun. If you want a work environment that is fun and laid back, join our team!

No cat or peanut allergies! (We foster a cat in the store, and our products are made with peanuts.)
We have a great training program, so bird knowledge is not required.
