Full Job Description

Dane Park Fidus Communities are the first Dog-Centric communities in the United States. Our mission is to raise the standard of care and quality of life for apartment living pets while making life easier for pet-parents. We are pioneers in the pet hospitality space and are looking for innovative, passionate, and pet-loving people to join our movement as we set the new gold standard for domesticated-pet care.

About the Position:

At Dane Park Fidus Communities, we are a growing group of communities that provide premier pet services for our residents. We're looking to fill a long-term position as a Daycare Yard Attendant/Dog Trainer, reporting to upper-level management.

This role is ideal for a skilled, dog-savvy professional who is passionate about canine behavior and development. You will blend hands-on training with attentive daycare supervision to ensure every dog in our care is safe, enriched, and growing into their best self.

As the Daycare Yard Attendant/Dog Trainer, you will be responsible for:

Design and implement individualized basic obedience and manners training programs for resident dogs using positive reinforcement techniques
Conduct structured training sessions covering foundational skills including sit, stay, recall, leash manners, and gate etiquette
Assess each dog's temperament, skill level, and behavioral needs upon enrollment and provide ongoing evaluations
Supervise and actively engage with dogs during daycare, monitoring play dynamics and intervening to redirect unsafe or inappropriate behavior
Pick up dogs from resident apartments and walk small groups of up to 3 dogs on leash, reinforcing leash manners throughout
Perform gate training with dogs to build safe and consistent habits for all resident pups
Clean and inspect dogs daily for injuries, ticks, foxtails, and other health concerns, reporting findings promptly
Pick up all dog waste immediately to maintain a clean and sanitary daycare yard and dog park
Perform daily cleaning tasks throughout the daycare yard and facility
Transport pets to and from Dane Park Daycare to resident apartment units
Communicate daily with residents regarding their dog's training progress, behavior observations, and personalized recommendations
Leave detailed daily report cards for clients, highlighting training milestones and behavioral notes
Report daily and weekly to supervisor on individual dog progress and any concerns
Collaborate with onsite and third-party service providers — including Dog Walkers, Groomers, Veterinarians, and property management — to ensure continuity of care and training consistency
Facilitate, plan, and support onsite resident dog-focused events, including training demonstrations and educational workshops
Assist residents with booking Fidus services and referral services as needed
Answer basic pet health and behavior questions and offer informed recommendations

Skills:

Demonstrated knowledge of canine behavior, body language, and positive reinforcement training methods is essential
As a Dane Park Fidus team member, you must be extremely reliable, trustworthy, and self-managed
A true passion for animals and a commitment to professional growth in the pet industry is key, as we invest heavily in employee training and certifications
Strong communication and customer service skills are vital to deliver a 5-star, professional client experience
Must be a team player and dependable — dogs rely on consistency for training and growth
Must possess strong situational awareness and the ability to maintain control under pressure to keep dogs and humans safe at all times
Visionary qualities such as openness to new ideas and adaptability to evolving methods are highly valued

Requirements and Experience:

1–2 years of professional dog training experience required; certification through a recognized organization (CPDT-KA, KPA-CTP, or equivalent) strongly preferred
Professional dog handling experience required
2 or more years of customer service experience preferred
4-year BA/BS degree or equivalent preferred; coursework or certifications in animal behavior, zoology, or a related field a plus
Desire to grow in pet-related professions such as Dog Training, Dog Walking, Veterinary, Grooming, and/or Business Management
Must have a valid driver's license, clean driving record, and reliable transportation for occasional offsite work
Must be able to pass a background check

What Sets Us Apart:

As more families choose luxury apartment living to maximize their comforts, their pets make the sacrifice with tight quarters and less interaction. At Dane Park Fidus Communities, we are raising the bar. Our communities are DOG-CENTRIC — every apartment home and community space is designed with dogs in mind, and our concierge and pet services are geared toward providing residents with a new gold standard and improved way of life for apartment-living pets across the globe.

Working for Dane Park Fidus Communities, you can expect:

Multi-featured benefits including competitive and attractive compensation, performance-based bonuses, combined vacation and sick days, medical, dental, vision, 401(k), free gym access, and more. You'll also enjoy a fun, friendly atmosphere with team and client social events.
