Looking for dog humans!

[Jeffrey Henderson]

Are you a human who is loved by dogs? Do you consider yourself a dog person and love them right back? How about working with them? We’re hiring staff at our dog daycare and boarding facility in West Seattle, Good Dog.

NOTE: You MUST complete the submission steps as outlined at the end of this listing. Applicants who do not submit as directed will not be considered and will not be contacted. If this ad is up, we’re still accepting applicants (we always accept applicants because we’re always on the lookout for good humans!).

We have openings for all daytime shifts – every day of the week (INCLUDING weekends). We also need some overnight backup. If you have availability, you’ll get the hours! From 15 to 35+ per week.

WEEKEND
– About 15+ hours available per weekend (typical shift is 8:45 a.m. – 4:15 p.m.)
– Could include an occasional overnight shift and will definitely include some holiday work during the holidays
– MUST love dogs, be adept in working with customers, POS, etc.

WEEKDAY
– Up to 35+ hours per week
– Opening and closing shifts (shifts could be 6:15 a.m. – 2:15 p.m.; 8:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m.; 2:15 – 7:15 p.m. or 11:15 a.m. – 7:15 p.m.)
– Could include an occasional overnight shift and will definitely include some holiday work during the holidays
– MUST love dogs, be adept in working with customers, POS, etc.

Our ideal candidate can follow the submission instructions, has flexibility with their availability, and is willing to work to cover the shifts where we’re short!

While we can train you on nearly everything you need to perform this job, we need you to have some customer service experience and be able to think on your feet with some finesse.

Furthermore, we need you to be a hard worker who is responsible and fun to have around. The pay for daytime shifts is $17.27 per hour ($15.75 plus tips). The pay scale for overnights is based on the number of dogs for which you’re caring. Should the number of dogs exceed 20, we add another overnight person who spends the night in a different room.

For more information about us and what this job requires, please go to our website (gooddog-inc.com) and visit the WORK WITH US page.

Once you’ve done that – and THIS is the important part – apply as follows:

1. Submit your resume (PDF, please) via email with a cover letter (this can be the body of your email) to jobs@gooddog-inc.com
2. Tell us why you’re a good fit.
3. Tell us when you’re available to start.
4. Tell us what your ongoing availability is.

Fit is more important than experience so while we’re not looking for someone with a bunch of experience, as noted, we do require some customer service experience or at least an inclination to be personable. Also as noted, we’re looking for a person who knows how to think on their feet, interface with people, loves dogs, and will fit with our team and help us make our business the best. Having experience with dogs is definitely a plus!

We look forward to hearing from you as you follow steps one through four above, but via email only, please (and attachments should be PDFs).

Remember, if you don’t follow the submission instructions, you won’t get a reply.

DO NOT call or drop by – our attention needs to be focused on the dogs, just email us at jobs@gooddog-inc.com
