Full Job Description

At Muddy Paws, every dog in our care is someone's family. Our job is to provide a safe, structured, enriching environment where dogs can play, learn, and go home happy and healthy.

That means you'll spend your days surrounded by wagging tails, happy faces, zoomies, puppy kisses, and plenty of laughter.

You'll also be cleaning kennels, picking up poop, mopping floors, monitoring dogs in all kinds of weather, staying on your feet for most of the day, and making quick decisions to keep dogs safe.

A Typical Day May Include

Supervising structured daycare playgroups
Monitoring dog body language and preventing conflicts before they happen
Keeping dogs engaged, active, and happy throughout the day
Feeding meals and administering medications
Cleaning suites, play yards, and common areas
Greeting clients and communicating about their dogs
Providing enrichment, love, and individual attention
Helping nervous dogs feel safe while away from home
Working with an amazing team that genuinely cares about dogs

Success at Muddy Paws isn't measured by how many dogs you can pet—it's measured by how safely you can manage them.

Every team member is expected to:

Stay off their phone while supervising dogs
Pay attention to dog behavior at all times
Follow safety procedures and protocols
Show up on time
Be dependable
Work well as part of a team
Take feedback professionally
Take pride in keeping our facility clean
Put the safety and well-being of our dogs above everything else

We're Looking For Someone Who...

Is looking for a long-term career, not just a temporary job
Has open availability, including weekdays, evenings, weekends, and holidays
Loves staying active and busy
Enjoys working outdoors in all seasons
Has a positive attitude and strong work ethic
Learns quickly and takes initiative
Is dependable and reliable
Can remain calm under pressure
Understands that teamwork is essential
Has experience with dogs or animal care (preferred but not required—we provide extensive training)

Schedule Expectations

Muddy Paws operates 7 days a week, 365 days a year.

Applicants must have open availability, including:

Morning shifts
Afternoon/Evening shifts
Weekends
Holidays

Our busiest times are weekends, holidays, and summer months. We are looking for dependable team members who can be counted on when it matters most.

What We Offer

Paid training
Employee discounts
Opportunities for advancement
Leadership development
Hands-on education in dog behavior and safety
A positive, supportive team environment
Complimentary daycare and boarding for your dog
Bring your dog to work (pending successful temperament evaluation)
The opportunity to spend every day making a difference in dogs' lives

Please note: Because of the extensive training involved, we are looking for applicants interested in a long-term position. This is not a seasonal or short-term job.

If you're dependable, hardworking, eager to learn, and passionate about pet care, we'd love to meet you.

Pay: $13.00 - $15.00 per hour

Benefits:

Employee discount
Flexible schedule
On-the-job training
