Job description

When Everyone Else Goes Home, the Dogs Are Counting on You.

Overnight animal care requires a particular kind of person.

Someone who understands that a dog behaving differently at 2:00 AM may be telling you something.

Someone who knows that feeding and medication instructions need to be followed exactly.

Someone who doesn't walk past something that needs cleaning because the morning crew will be there soon.

And someone who can be trusted to do the job properly even when a manager isn't standing in the room.

If you recognize yourself in that description, we'd like to meet you.

The Wags Club is an established cage-free dog daycare and boarding facility serving Santa Monica and West Los Angeles, and we're hiring Overnight Dog Care Attendants.

Overnight shift: 9:00 PM–7:00 AM

Both part-time and full-time schedules are available.

The Responsibility

Our clients go home at night trusting that their dogs will continue receiving attentive care.

You’ll be one of the people responsible for keeping that promise.

You’ll:

• Supervise our boarding dogs throughout the night
• Monitor health, behavior, comfort, and overall well-being
• Recognize and report anything unusual
• Follow feeding instructions accurately
• Administer medications as directed
• Maintain clean and sanitary play and sleeping areas
• Complete laundry and facility-cleaning responsibilities
• Keep dogs comfortable and settled overnight
• Prepare the facility for the morning care team
• Communicate important overnight information clearly

Experience Is Valuable. Judgment Matters Even More.

We'd especially like to hear from candidates with experience in:

• Dog daycare or boarding
• Veterinary hospitals or clinics
• Kennels
• Pet sitting
• Animal shelters or rescues
• Grooming facilities
• Other professional animal-care environments

But experience alone doesn't make someone good at overnight care.

We need someone who's observant.

Someone who's dependable.

Someone who notices when something isn't right.

Someone who can solve routine problems independently while knowing when something needs to be escalated.

And someone who understands that being trusted to work independently is a responsibility, not an invitation to stop working.

Scheduling Options

Part-time: Minimum two 10-hour overnight shifts per week

Full-time: Four 10-hour overnight shifts / 40 hours per week

Full-time employees complete their 40-hour schedule in four nights, giving them three days off each week.

Additional shifts may also be available.

Pay & Perks

$13–$14.00 per hour

• Free daycare for your own dog
• Employee discounts
• Part-time and full-time opportunities
• Work with an established professional pet-care team
