Job Description
Job duties include, but are not limited to:
Each pet has their own room or suite for down-time, but will participate in a Group-Play environment during the day as well, as long as they have passed our temperament test for Group-Play. For our Hotel pets who do not enjoy group play, they get one-on-one time with a kennel assistant dependent on their needs and/or requirements. The cleaning will entail keeping the individual pet's rooms/suites clean, but also the yards and wards clean/sterile in general. Duties include but are not limited to vacuuming, moping, doing laundry, feeding and medicating pets that are boarding. Our Group-Play environment is based off of the Dog-Gurus series called "Knowing Dogs 101 & 201." Knowing Dogs 101 is about Dog Language and Knowing Dogs 201 is about Group Play. We do require all of our staff to watch this series of 16 videos (that are about 20-25 minutes each) and pass the quizzes that go along with each lesson, this way our entire staff are all on the same page concerning dog behavior (from the doctors and receptionists to the kennel staff). We also have individual cat suites and a separate cat Play-Room, however cats will be rotated through their Play-Room individually, since cats are not so fond of a Group-Play environment (except for those that are boarding with a sibling), therefore we need our kennel assistants to also be comfortable handling kitties. Most importantly, we are looking for passionate individuals who enjoy not only the time with the pets, but interacting with the pet owners as well.
QualificationsWe are looking for someone with:
- Knowledge of cleaning and disinfecting methods.
- Proper methods of animal restraint.
- Ability to use cleaning materials and equipment with skill and efficiency.
- Perform moderately heavy physical labor (large dogs, bags of litter, pet foods, etc).
- Ability to sympathetically and patiently attend to sick, scared and injured animals.
- Ability to learn to administer medications and to recognize abnormal conditions.
- Understand and carry out oral and written directions.
- Maintain cooperative relationships with those contacted in the course of the job.
Practice Highlights:
- A family-oriented practice with a focus on stress-free pet care…it’s about QUALITY not quantity.
- An incredible team of highly-skilled tech staff to provide valuable leverage for our doctors to focus on the practice of medicine.
- Protocols created from experience to streamline the process of pet care.
- Full Pharmacy with Compounding Capabilities
- An understanding of the importance of “quality of life” for our staff, their health, and their families.
- A positive and fun (sometimes crazy) staff.
SPECIAL WORKING CONDITIONS
+ Ability to sit or stand and work at a computer for long periods of time.
+ Ability to be confident around animals (i.e., dogs, cats, birds, reptiles, etc. Candidate to confirm species treated with practice leadership for additional clarity.)
+ Client needs and work volume may occasionally require more than 40 hours per week to complete essential duties of this job. This position may require special working hours, including working weekends, evenings and/or holidays.
+ Must have mental capacity and processes for reasoning, remembering, mathematics and language ability (reading, writing, and speaking the English language) to perform the duties proficiently.
+ The noise level in the work environment is moderately high. Ear plugs will be available upon request.
+ Job requires sufficient ambulatory skills in order to perform required duties while working.
+ Ability to sit, stand, walk, stoop, kneel, crouch, and climb as well as manipulate (lift, carry, move) up to 50 pounds.
+ Requires good hand-eye coordination, arm-hand-finger dexterity with the ability to grasp, and visual acuity to use a keyboard and operate other equipment as required.
+ Specific vision abilities required by this job include close vision, distance vision, color vision, peripheral vision, depth perception, and ability to adjust focus.
+ Hospital teammates are routinely exposed to a variety of animals that may bite, kick or scratch, and on occasion, may be exposed to anesthesia, radiation, biological or zoonotic hazards and/or medication/controlled substances.
