The newest and premier Dog Daycare and Boarding facility is now open in Lakeville! Puppy Play and Stay seeks Pup Pros to join our dedicated team of pet lovers. We offer open play spaces for dogs to “play like a puppy” on our Fun FURniture, take a snooze on our cots or enjoy the sunshine in our outdoor area. Pup Pros need to be dog-savvy, organized, confident, and friendly in this fast-paced environment.
Our ideal candidate will have knowledge of and experience with caring for pets in a boarding & day care environment. This position will require the ability to juggle a variety of responsibilities, with a strong attention to detail and excellent interpersonal and communication skills.
Our Pup Pros are responsible for ensuring the playrooms are safe, calm and clean. Pup Pros are also responsible for helping feed the pups each morning and night, administering medications, walking the pups, cleaning up after the pups, and keeping our facility pristine and running smoothly. It takes a team to make it all happen, but we work together and are passionate about what we do!
