- Safely grouping and rotating dogs for play and rest
- Helping prevent and appropriately respond to conflicts between dogs
- Feeding dogs and administering oral medications as directed
- Cleaning and sanitizing kennels and boarding areas
- Scooping poop and cleaning accidents
- Mopping and pressure washing play areas
- Washing and sanitizing dishes
- Bathing, brushing and assisting with nail trims
- Completing general cleaning and facility duties
- Working together with the team to provide excellent care for every animal staying with us
