LOVE DOGS AND LOVE PEOPLE? LEAD OUR EVENINGS.

Start at $19/hour, moving to $20/hour after your first 90 days, plus a bonus every time you help a new family join under enrollment at Dogtopia. Continue earning increases based on tenure and performance.

Weekday afternoons and evenings, plus rotating Saturdays.

And yes, you can bring your dog to work.

This is the role for someone who is great with people and great with dogs, and who wants the part of the job where you actually help a family decide what their dog needs.

What You'll Actually Do

You are the face of Dogtopia for every family who walks in during your shift, and you are the person the team looks to when the General Manager is not here.

You will:

• Lead the front of house during evening and weekend shifts
• Run Meet & Greets from the welcome through to helping the family choose the right plan for their dog
• Follow up with families after their visit so nobody falls through the cracks
• Answer questions about daycare, boarding and spa, and recommend what genuinely fits the dog in front of you
• Support and direct the Canine Coaches on shift
• Handle check in, check out, payments and the daily close
• Step into the playroom when the team needs you
• Keep the lobby clean, calm and welcoming

You Might Be Perfect for This Job If...

• You genuinely love dogs and enjoy talking to the people who love them
• You are comfortable recommending something and asking for the signup
• You like being the person others count on when the manager is not in the building
• You stay calm and think on your feet in a loud, fast-moving place
• You take responsibility seriously because animals and people are depending on you
• You want evenings and weekends rather than a nine to five

Customer service, retail, hospitality, veterinary or front desk experience all translate well here. No professional dog experience? We train you. Already have dog daycare experience? Even better.

You must be able to:

• Be around groups of dogs of all sizes
• Lift up to 40 pounds
• Work evenings and rotating Saturdays, and some holidays
• Be on your feet for most of a shift

Why You'll Love Working Here

• Bring your dog to work during eligible shifts
• $25 birthday bonus
• Additional pay for select holidays
• Employee referral program
• Quarterly customer service bonus when survey goals are achieved
• Years of Service bonuses for annual milestones
• Extensive training in dog behavior and playroom management
• Opportunities to grow into additional responsibilities and leadership roles
• Full-Time Benefits - earned with part-time performance milestones

Team members who move into full-time status can become eligible for benefits after 90 days while consistently working at least five shifts per week. Benefits include health insurance, paid time off and a retirement plan.
