Full Job Description

Camp Bow Wow located in Elmhurst, IL is looking for Full-Time Dog Handlers for our AM and PM shifts. We are seeking passionate professionals who will care for our campers as if they're your own beloved pups! Candidates should be comfortable interacting with dogs of all sizes and a range of temperaments. While we do not accept aggressive dogs, plenty of our campers are young and still learning manners and proper play. Our counselors must be prepared to be barked at, bumped around, and jumped on occasionally. You will be tasked with managing groups of up to 25 dogs, maintaining a safe and clean space. Counselors are also tasked with keeping our facilities tidy for clients and their pets. This includes cleaning cabins, play yards, public spaces, and the area surrounding our building. All counselors are trained to perform basic grooming and first aid for dogs. Counselors who master basic dog care and managements duties can qualify for more advanced training. Progressing to higher levels and taking on more advanced tasks come with potential for corresponding pay increases. Please send us your resume and cover letter if you are interested in joining our team!
