Full Job Description

About the Role & Growth Opportunities

We are seeking a reliable, detail-oriented, and hard-working Kennel Assistant to join our small, dedicated team.

This position is ideal for someone who isn't just a dog lover, but who is genuinely eager to learn the ins and outs of high-level dog care and handling. Working as a kennel assistant with us is a fantastic way to get your foot in the door of the professional dog world. For the right individual, there is ample opportunity to learn about dog training, enrichment, and sports such as Agility, IGP, and Competition Obedience. This role offers incredible hands-on exposure and huge potential for future skill development and training advancement down the road.

Expectations & Environment

While the learning potential is huge, this is a physical, labor-intensive job where cleanliness, sanitation, and attention to detail are top priorities. If you do not like cleaning—including picking up poop, cleaning up urine, and handling vomit—this position is not for you. We need someone who takes pride in maintaining a pristine facility, cares deeply about animal welfare, can follow explicit instructions, and—once trained—can perform their duties independently without needing to be micromanaged.

Key ResponsibilitiesDaily Operations & Cleaning (Primary Role)

Food Prep & Diets: Preparing and serving individualized meals accurately, including being comfortable handling raw fed diets in the food prep area.
Medication Administration: Giving medications strictly as directed.
Sanitation & Waste Cleanup: Promptly picking up waste/poop, cleaning up urine, and sanitizing vomit or other messes immediately and thoroughly.
Facility Maintenance: Deep cleaning, sanitizing, and maintaining kennel spaces, runs, and equipment.
Office & Common Areas: Keeping office areas, common spaces, and grounds clean, tidy, and orderly.
Potty Breaks & Routine: Ensuring all dogs are pottied regularly and on schedule.
Grooming & Enrichment: Conducting one-on-one play sessions, basic brushing, and bathing as needed.
Health Monitoring: Closely observing dogs for any signs of stress, illness, or injury, and reporting observations immediately.

Special Projects & Flexible Duties

Because we operate a dynamic facility, duties may expand based on business needs and your initiative. Additional tasks may include:

Assisting with puppies participating in day camp.
Helping handle/work dogs enrolled in training programs under trainer direction.
Creating short video clips and capturing content for social media posts.
Other special projects assigned by management.

Requirements & Qualifications

License & Transportation: Must possess a valid driver's license and have reliable transportation.
Dependability & Initiative: Must be punctual, reliable, and capable of learning the job thoroughly and working efficiently without direct supervision.
Shift Availability: Flexible schedule required, including morning shifts, evening shifts, weekends, and holidays.
Communication: Excellent written and verbal communication skills; ability to follow written and spoken instructions precisely.
Dog Handling & Food Prep: Comfortable handling dogs of all sizes, ages, breeds, and temperaments, as well as handling raw meat/raw diets.
Physical Demands : Ability to lift up to 50 lbs, work on your feet, work outside in different weather conditions.
Team Player: Ability to work smoothly as part of a small, tight-knit team.

Typical Shifts

Shifts vary based on business needs, but standard shifts generally fall within the following windows:

Morning Shift: 7:00 AM – 12:00 PM
Evening Shift: 6:00 PM – 8:00 PM
Midday Shifts & Variable Hours depending on dog occupancy and scheduling.

How to Apply

If you meet all of the qualifications above, are passionate about expanding your dog training knowledge, and take pride in keeping a clean environment, please submit your resume and a brief introduction outlining your background and why you're interested in this position.

Pay: $18.00 per hour

Benefits:
