Job Description

Dog Daycare Attendant - Part-Time

Do you thrive in high-energy environments? Love dogs — but also understand that safety comes first?

We’re looking for a Part-Time Dog Daycare Attendant to supervise group play sessions, manage pack dynamics, and ensure every dog has a safe, structured, and enriching daycare experience. This is an active, fast-paced role that requires focus, stamina, and confidence in a group dog setting.

Who We Are

NVA Pet Resorts is part of National Veterinary Associates (NVA) — the largest private owner of veterinary hospitals and pet resorts in North America, with 1,300+ locations. We’re proud to be in an $8B+ industry that continues to grow as pet parents seek premium, trusted care for their furry family members.

At NVA Pet Resorts, our mission is simple: create safe, fun, and loving environments for pets while providing exceptional experiences for our clients and team members

What You’ll Do

As a Daycare Attendant, you are responsible for the safety and structure of the pack.

Your day will include:

  • Supervising group play sessions with multiple dogs
  • Monitoring body language and preventing conflicts
  • Redirecting inappropriate behavior calmly and confidently
  • Separating dogs when needed
  • Walking dogs to and from play areas
  • Cleaning and sanitizing play yards throughout your shift
  • Monitoring health and reporting any concerns immediately
  • Documenting playgroup notes and behavior observations
  • Communicating updates to leadership and occasionally to pet parents
  • You will be on your feet most of the day, moving quickly, and staying alert.
  • Yes — you will clean messes. Yes — you’ll get dirty. Yes — it can be loud and busy.
  • And yes — it’s incredibly rewarding when done well.

What We’re Looking For

  • We’re seeking someone who is:
  • Confident supervising groups of dogs
  • Knowledgeable (or willing to learn) about dog behavior and pack dynamics
  • Calm, assertive, and safety-focused
  • Physically active and comfortable standing for long periods
  • Detail-oriented with strong observation skills
  • Reliable and punctual
  • Team-oriented with a positive attitude

You must be able to:

  • Lift up to 60 lbs
  • Handle dogs of all sizes safely
  • Work indoors and outdoors in various temperatures
  • Work weekends and holidays
  • Stay focused in a noisy, fast-moving environment
