Pet Care Attendant

If your camera roll is 90% dogs…
If you greet pups before people…
If muddy paw prints make you smile…

You might be exactly who we’re looking for!

Who We Are

At Pet Care Plus, we’re more than just a dog daycare — we’re a full-service pet care community focused on keeping pets Safe, Happy, and Healthy.

We’re proud to be the longest-running daycare and boarding facility in Chicago under the same owner, building lasting relationships with pets and their families through consistency, quality care, and strong leadership.

We believe in caring for the whole health of every dog — physical, mental, and emotional — through structured play, enrichment, proper rest, and safe socialization.

If you’re looking for a fast-paced, team-oriented environment where tails wag all day and the work truly matters, you’ll fit right in.

What You’ll Be Doing 

As a Pet Handler, you’ll:

  • Supervise and safely manage group dog play

  • Learn dog body language and behavior

  • Redirect rough play and keep the pack balanced

  • Clean and sanitize play areas (yes, that includes the not-so-glamorous stuff!)

  • Provide LOTS of love, structure, and positive energy

  • Work as part of a supportive, upbeat team

This is an active job — you’ll be on your feet, moving, cleaning, and engaging with dogs all day.

You’re a Great Fit If You…

  • Love dogs of all sizes and personalities
  • Have positive energy and a strong work ethic
  • Can stay calm and confident in a fast-paced environment
  • Aren’t afraid of barking, shedding, or getting a little dirty
  • Are reliable and show up ready to work, on time
  • Want to grow with a company that promotes from within

Bonus points if you’ve worked in daycare, customer service, hospitality, or team-based roles!

What You’ll Gain

  • Hands-on experience working with dogs

  • Training in dog behavior and pack management

  • A supportive team environment

  • Opportunities for growth and advancement

  • Daily tail wags and unconditional love

The Real Talk

This job is incredibly rewarding — but it’s also hard work. It’s physical, messy, and fast-paced. If you’re ready to roll up your sleeves (and maybe get some slobbery kisses), we’d love to meet you!

If this sounds like your dream job, apply today and tell us why you’d be a great addition to our pack!
