Pros

Being around dogs and cats all day is just about the best job you can imagine. Honestly they are why people stay at this company for as long as they do, which isn't very long in most cases.

Cons

Too many to list. So many people leaving that the ones left have to pull all the weight, working long hours and basically on call nights, weekends. The pay here is less than other companies, for a lot more running around different neighborhoods, dead time between jobs that isn't paid, scheduling mistakes left and right! Its just too much.!

It is unfortunate you feel that we were not listening. We certainly try. As you know, we experienced a very difficult winter with weather that made providing our service problematic. A lot of last minute flu callouts increased our challenge. We had to all pull together and, fortunately for the clients and our company, most of our staff hung in there. This position was obviously not a good fit for you. We wish you luck in whatever new career you choose.

Pros

Accommodating and supportive of employee needs. Fun and sweet staff environment. Spending the day with furry friends!

Cons

Could use a larger scheduling team. Communication between team members and scheduling was not always the best.
