Mid - Daycare Attendant Camp Ruff It Employee Review

I started at Camp in 2010, a few months after they opened. One great aspect has bern to be able to see the business grow with great owners and staff! The owners have always cared about the safety and well-being of all the dogs and staff. Aside from always making sure the facility is safe for the dogs and having someone here 24/7 to care for the dogs, they also take care of us! Personally, they have helped me many times getting paid in advance when I've hit some rough times. They have helped other staff pay for places to live and cars when they've struggled too. I started as an attendant and was able to become a manager. As long as you put in the effort, there are always opportunities to do more here, learn, give input and be creative! Management gets vacation days and awesome health benefits. Other staff also get benefits as well! We get pay raises and bonuses. Best of all, we get to bring out own dogs to work with us!

Only downside is when dogs pass or move away from us!

Literally none terrible work environment

We got one 20 minute break during a 10 hr shift…we weren’t allowed to talk when the owners husband came in. It would be 1 person to like 30 dogs. They would take dogs for lunch and then never take them out of their kennels after that. Severely understaffed. They told us to stop reminding people that their dogs were due for vaccinations while we had kennel cough going around. Two Irish wolfhounds fully attacked a golden retriever and the owner didn’t even move to help and then told my coworkers they didn’t move fast enough and these dogs were so big it took 4 people to get one of them off another dog the first time it attacked another dog. When I left there were 4 other people who quit within the same week. That alone should tell you not to work there. They’ll try to hire you right after your interview…don’t do it.
