Pros

The crew was friendly and happy to be a part of a great team. Training used to last at least a month before being “on your own”. Staff used to be experienced and were expected to be professional. Paid above minimum wage with regular raises based on performance/title.

Cons

Started hiring younger, inexperienced staff. Write ups were thrown out and HR made excuses for underperforming team members. Level of care for the animals decreased as profits increased.

Pros

-Bond with and get to know so many wonderful dogs. -Shifts do not end late (latest is 8:45, however 90% of the time duties are completed by 8 pm.) -Do private services like walks and private plays one on one with dogs. -Help with fun dog birthday parties (you get to bake the cake/treats, take pictures and play with the dogs on your shift). -Breakroom has an actual cabinet with dishes, cutlery, along with coffee pot, microwave, fridge, and regular snacks for all employees. -Employees are kind and most are hard-working.

Cons

-Often understaffed. -Difficult to adapt to when first starting (you're "thrown to the sharks", employees that train you all have different methods and routines for duties making it hard to understand, many small things to remember that aren't established from beginning, etc.) -Overwhelmed with work often due to understaffing. -Things break or stop working semi-often, like the washing machine, hoses, etc. that can cause backup in work. -Manager is often late and may not show up when promised (missed meeting with me, has not shown up to open in the AM, etc.)
