Full Job Description

The work you will do with us will help save lives!

Remaining community minded, we pride ourselves on cultivating a collaborative and communicative work environment. We stand by our motto, “Caring, Friendly, and Fun!” and work in all aspects of THPR to ensure top tier service for clients, the best possible environment for our canine and feline guests, and a positive work environment for all of our staff members.

Occasionally transporting dogs from care of owner to boarding facility, asking questions about dogs behavior and sociability to elicit necessary information, completing Watchchecks and Initial Watchchecks physically checking dogs.
