IF YOU THINK SLOPPY DOGGY KISSES ARE THE BEST KIND, COME JOIN THE TEAM AT FAST FRIENDS!
We have two opportunities for animal lovers with a passion for dog rescue and dedication to compassionate companion animal care.
Doggy Daycare and Boarding Staff: make sure Fast Friends is "a fun place for dogs" of all ages, sizes, and breeds by:
- supervising playgroups
- learning individual dogs' needs and preferences
- communicating with customers about their dog's experiences
Mission Kennel Assistant: provide hands-on daily caregiving for the rescue dogs available for adoption, such as:
- walks and practicing good leash manners
- playtime and enrichment activities
- practicing other skills that will be needed in a home
With both positions, you will be on your feet almost all day, completeing general care tasks like:
- preparing and serving meals
- bringing dogs to and from relief yards
- picking up messes (pee and poop)
- cleaning kennels (sweep, mop, disinfect)
- doing laundry
- washing dishes
No prior experience with dogs is necessary—although it is preferred.
Skills needed to be successful in these positions:
- Excellent communication with team members, supervisors, and customers
- Enjoy being physically active, with some time outdoors each day
- Detail-oriented and observant
- Team-oriented
* Fast Friends requires near-perfect attendance: we do our best to accommodate time off requests, but no dog staying with us will ever receive anything less than the absolute best care, and that means fully-staffed shifts every single day. Please consider your winter driving situation, as we are open 365 days a year—dogs need to be fed and walked even when it is snowing. *
If you love dogs and want to be part of a committed, passionate team, send in your application today. We look forward to hearing from you!
