Do you speak fluent "woof" or "meow"? Know the joy of puppy kisses and the chaos of a zoomie's session? If you're passionate about paws and ready to turn your love for animals into a rewarding job, we've got a tail-wagging opportunity for you.
At Destination Pet, we're not just another Pet/Vet care center-we're a community that lives to elevate the love and lives of pet families.

What You Should Know
- This is an on-your-feet, hands-on, sometimes-sweaty kind of job.

- Availability on evenings, weekends, and holidays required pets don't take days off.

What You Bring to the Table
- A borderline-obsessive love for animals. (We get it. We're the same.)
- Prior kennel or animal care experience is a plus, but if you're brand new and eager to learn-we want to meet you!
- A cool, calm, and professional demeanor-even when a Great Dane steals your mop.
- A willingness to get your hands dirty (literally).
What You'll Be Doing (Besides Making Furry Friends for Life)
- Keeping pet enclosures and play areas spotless, safe, and sanitized (because nobody likes a stinky litter box).
- Serving up meals and fresh water like a 5-star pet resort concierge.
- Monitoring the health, happiness, and, yes, poop of every pet guest-because details matter.
- Reporting anything unusual to the General or Assistant Manager (you'll be their eyes and ears).
- Supervising playtime, tail-wagging, and the occasional game of fetch.
- Assisting with brushing and bath time (rubber ducky optional).
- Handling laundry and belongings so every pet has clean snuggly stuff.
- Making tails wag. That's the real goal here.
- Other duties as assigned
Weekend availability preferred. AM and PM shifts.
- At Destination Pet, we're all about creating a workplace that's bursting with diversity and inclusivity.
- Our hiring decisions are solely based on what you can bring to the team.
- So, we're throwing the door wide open for all like-minded candidates who believe in celebrating and honoring diversity and inclusion.
