Job Description:
Job Description Job Description Welcome to Destination Pet. We
are One Pack- a united team working together to elevate the love
and lives of pet families. Our pet-obsessed professionals create a
connected care network of trustworthy partners who bring creative
innovation every day. We are revolutionizing the pet industry. Join
us! We’re currently sniffing out our next Animal Care Attendant at
Top Dog Retreat Do you speak fluent “woof” or “meow”? Know the joy
of puppy kisses and the chaos of a zoomie's session? If you're
passionate about paws and ready to turn your love for animals into
a rewarding job, we’ve got a tail-wagging opportunity for you. At
Destination Pet, we’re not just another Pet/Vet care center—we’re a
community that lives to elevate the love and lives of pet families.
Since 2016, we’ve been serving up best-in-show care from coast to
coast with day care, boarding, grooming, training, veterinary
services, and more. Whether its belly rubs or brushing, our goal is
simple: make pets feel at home and their humans feel at ease. Perks
& Pay: Part-time health, mental health, and telehealth benefits.
Pay starts at $15.00 /hour DOE What You Should Know: This is an
on-your-feet, hands-on, sometimes-sweaty kind of job. Must be able
to lift up to 40 lbs (golden retrievers don’t walk themselves to
the tub). Availability on evenings, weekends, and holidays required
pets don’t take days off. Exposure to cleaning supplies, pet hair,
and, ahem, “accidents” is part of the gig. Must be able to be on
feet for the duration of your shift. Must be able to stand, walk
and climb stairs frequently Reporting To: General Manager What You
Bring to the Table: A borderline-obsessive love for animals. (We
get it. We’re the same.) Prior kennel or animal care experience is
a plus, but if you're brand new and eager to learn—we want to meet
you! A cool, calm, and professional demeanor—even when a Great Dane
steals your mop. A willingness to get your hands dirty (literally).
College student and second-job hustlers—we’ve got room in the pack.
Based on the requirements of this position, all applicants must be
18 years or older. What You'll Be Doing (Besides Making Furry
Friends for Life): Keeping pet enclosures and play areas spotless,
safe, and sanitized (because nobody likes a stinky litter box).
Serving up meals and fresh water like a 5-star pet resort
concierge. Monitoring the health, happiness, and, yes, poop of
every pet guest—because details matter. Reporting anything unusual
to the General or Assistant Manager (you’ll be their eyes and
ears). Supervising playtime, tail-wagging, and the occasional game
of fetch. Assisting with brushing and bath time (rubber ducky
optional). Handling laundry and belongings so every pet has clean
snuggly stuff. Making tails wag. That’s the real goal here. Other
duties as assigned Destination Pet LLC affords equal employment
opportunities to employees and applicants without regard to race,

origin, genetic information, age, disability or any other
characteristic protected by federal, state or local law. Equal
Opportunity Employer Minorities/Women/Veterans/Disabled.
