St Louis, United States No Leash Needed Full time
About the Company:

Here at No Leash Needed, we offer services for all pet care needs with the exception of veterinary care. We have professional dog training and grooming and we also offer boarding and day camp for all kinds of pups and their families who need it. We have been around for about 11 years and currently have 8 successful locations spread out across the St. Louis area with the expectation to continue to expand. Our mission statement is to help our pet lovers and their pets by being Playful, Passionate, Personal, and Professional every day with them.

What we are looking for:

We have a back-of-house position open for our Pet Care Technician role. A successful candidate for this position will embody these values and be a:

  • Respectful Team player
  • Is Self-motivated
  • Excellent communicator
  • Detail-oriented.
As this is a service-related industry, you should have a passion for customer service and helping people. Working in the back house does not change this passion but directs it more towards the dogs then parents.

At the end of the day, your goal is to help our overnight and daily guests feel like this is their palace away from home. When working here, you may find yourself giving extra attention to a shy pup in need while also helping other dogs get back into their normal routine. It's important to document any observations and be ready to share with your manager and supervisors about what is going on with our guests. And of course, cleaning up after the dogs is a daily task. While the job is fun and rewarding, it's more than just playing with puppies all day. Expect to go home with some fur on you
