Aloha Pet Resort and Spa has an opportunity to work in the daycare and boarding areas of the resort and looking for upbeat, motivated people to fill this need!
PLEASE NOTE, HOLIDAY AND WEEKEND AVAILABILITY/FLEXIBILITY REQUIRED TO APPLY. MUST COMMIT TO A MINIMUM OF 20 HOURS PER WEEK DURING THE SUMMER MONTHS (MAY-AUGUST).
We understand you love animals. We want to make it clear that taking care of animals is hard work and a big responsibility. This is NOT an easy, mindless job.
The kind of employee we need:
- Dependable - these animals depend on us to take care of them, so you must show up on time to every shift you are scheduled for
- Works well with others - the staff at Aloha have to work together to get things done. We have a lot to do in a day and it requires people working together to take care of our guests.
- Communication - we must be communicative with our coworkers and management team in order to enact change and learn from questions asked.
- High Standards - we expect the best for our guests at Aloha, so our employees are held to these same high standards.
Working with a group of dogs is a BIG responsibility:
- It’s your job to keep them safe
- It’s your job to make sure they are well taken care of
- You must be alert at all times and be on your feet for the shift
A few things that you will have to deal with when taking care of animals:
- You will have to clean up poop, pee, puke and major blow outs.
- You will get jumped on, scratched, clothes ripped and possibly bit (this is very rare).
- You will need to deal with barking and a loud working environment.
Here is a SAMPLE of a weekly schedule. You will get a mix of our Lodging and Fitness Club shifts:
Monday: 6:00am lodging shift. Here for about 2 hours (could work into the next shift at 8am if your schedule allows)
Tuesday: 8:00am-12:00pm. Here for 4 hours in our fitness club and help with our lodging amenities
Wednesday: 1:00pm-5:30pm. Here for 4 ½ hours in our fitness club. This shift has many cleaning tasks that require much physical effort.
Thursday: 3:30pm-6:00pm. Here for 2 ½ hrs. This is a runner shift. This shift does the lodging let outs, feeding, medications, cleaning and running dogs to the customer in the lobby.
Friday: 8:00am-12:00pm and 1:00pm-5:00pm. This is a double shift and an 8 hour day. You would get an hour lunch break. This would be working in the fitness club with dogs of many sizes. We have 3 sizes of dog groups. There are many cleaning tasks that go along with these shifts.
Saturday: 6:00am-8:00am for lodging let outs. You might have to come back from 4:00pm-6:00pm for another lodging let out shift the same day.
Sunday: 10:45am-1:15pm for lodging let outs and/or working in the fitness club. You might have to come back from 8:00pm-9:30pm the same day.
