Chilly Dogs — Ottawa, ON (east end, Lancaster Road) ·
In office · Full-time/Seasonal is an option (Sept-April)
If you like a busy shipping table, a tidy warehouse, and working in a small team — this one’s for you.
About Chilly Dogs
Chilly Dogs designs and sells dog coats built for real Canadian weather, along with a growing selection of other products. Helping people care for their dogs is at the heart of the business — our customers come back season after season because our dog coats fit and the quality holds up. We’re a small team, which means the every person has an important role. You’d work directly with the owner/operator and our customer service staff, and you’d see the whole path an order takes: shelf to box to customer. We are proud to manufacture in Canada and work with other independent businesses.
One thing worth knowing up front: our year has two speeds. October through February is a genuine sprint — orders stack up and the days are full. The rest of the year has some breathing room. We’re looking for someone who likes that rhythm rather than someone who’d rather have every week look the same. Off-season is for completing projects to improve the business (and reduced time on shipping orders). If you like to have summers off, that is a possibility in this role.
