Do you LOVE dogs, the outdoors, and are a fast paced person?
Camp Four Paws is a fast paced doggie daycare and lodging facility located in rural Clayton.
We are looking for someone with:
1. a huge love of dogs,
2. a focus on cleanliness,
3. a willingness to work hard (this is definitely a fast paced job)
4. the ability to listen and follow instructions (not following instructions with dogs can get you and everyone else in trouble),
5. good communication skills and a clean, neat appearance. This is a business.
6. Determination to do the best job possible.
7. Someone that understands talking too much at work is hard on other workers.
Dog care experience is a plus, but we are willing to train the right individual. People that tend to have success here often participated in an activity where they had an instructor or coach who gave them instructions and they were motivated to follow them. We use project lists that need to be followed. You need to be able to mentally handle feedback/criticism as any new person will need help doing the job correctly.
We play outside with dogs, so you must be able to handle the cold, the heat, the dirt and dog slobber! This definitely is not a job where you are sitting down looking at your phone and just petting puppies. The ability and passion to follow instructions and follow a project list is important. We are busy busy busy!
We are located in rural Clayton, about 15 minutes from downtown Clayton, so please check where our facility is located before applying.
You must have your own transportation as we are not on a bus route. You also may need to take a dog to the Vet.

You Must Be Physically Able To:
o Handle large active dogs (50 lbs or more).
o Work in a standing position for long periods of time.
o Work weekends and shortened holiday shifts.
o Drivers license- we are in RURAL Clayton, please map us before applying.
This is a part-time position. We are currently looking for the afternoon shift (3:00PM to 9PM) and weekend shifts. This is the perfect job for students as long as you can work holidays and some weekends.
