Job description
About us
Club DiOGi is a small business in Atlanta, GA. We are professional, customer-centric, inclusive and our goal is to enrich the lives of small dogs and send them home better behaved than when they walked in the door. We ease the minds of their humans through transparent communication and excellent customer service. .
Our work environment includes:
Modern office setting
Food provided
Growth opportunities
Club DiOGi is an enrichment-based daycare for dogs 35 lbs and under, and we are staffed 24/7 to ensure the safety of our doggy guests. Not only do we provide a safe environment for small dogs to come and play while their humans are away, we address the needs of the whole dog with our enrichment/play/rest daily schedule. No day is the same, and that's what makes this job so fun! From daily enrichment activities and free play to zenning out in our Zen Room with Classical Music and Veterinarian Approved aromatherapy, the pups get a balanced amount of time to work their brains and bodies as well as take time out to rest throughout the day. Our playgroups are small, and range from 8-25 dogs per group depending on many factors.
We are not your typical dog daycare, and we are not looking for the typical dog daycare attendant. We are looking for someone who would like an opportunity to grow with our company and be part of our already incredible team of individuals dedicated to the health and well-being of all the dogs in our care.
We are looking for a dog passionate individual who can work hard and play hard, too! While we have fun with what we do, there is no question that it is hard, physical work. We hire dedicated, dependable, self-motivated, punctual individuals who work well on their own as well as part of a team.
While we do a lot of dog playing and cuddling, this job isn't for someone who wants to sit all day. This is a physical job where a lot of work goes on behind the scenes to maintain a clean, safe and enriching environment for our doggy guests.
