Dog Daycare Attendant

The K-9 Corner is looking for a new Dog Daycare Attendant to join the pack!

As a Dog Daycare Attendant, you’ll play an important role in creating a safe, fun, structured, and training-focused environment for the dogs in our care. We’re looking for dependable, energetic individuals who genuinely love dogs, enjoy working as part of a team, and want to make a positive difference in the lives of the dogs we care for.

Key Responsibilities

• Supervise and engage with dogs during group play, activities, and daily routines while maintaining a safe and controlled environment.


• Implement enrichment activities that provide physical exercise, mental stimulation, and positive social interaction.


• Monitor dog behavior and interactions, recognizing signs of stress, overstimulation, or inappropriate behavior and responding appropriately.


• Maintain a clean, sanitary, and safe environment for all dogs and team members through regular cleaning and upkeep of daycare areas.


• Build positive relationships with the dogs by learning their individual personalities, needs, behaviors, and play styles.


• Work closely with the team to provide consistent, high-quality care for every dog.


• Communicate effectively and professionally with team members and be comfortable both providing and receiving constructive feedback.


• Follow The K-9 Corner’s safety, handling, training, and care procedures to ensure every dog receives consistent and responsible care.

What We’re Looking For

We’re looking for someone who is:

• Dependable, punctual, and responsible


• Comfortable working with dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and temperaments


• Energetic and comfortable working in a physically active environment


• Observant and attentive to dog behavior and body language


• Able to remain calm and confident in a busy group-play environment


• Willing to learn and follow our training and dog-handling methods


• A strong team player with good communication skills


• Comfortable with the less glamorous parts of working with dogs—including cleaning, picking up waste, and keeping play areas sanitary

Previous professional dog-handling experience is a plus, but a strong work ethic, willingness to learn, and genuine passion for dogs are equally important.

If you love working with dogs and want to be part of a team focused on providing safe, structured, and enriching care, we’d love to hear from you.
