Pros

You get to work with sweet, loving dogs. You get to learn a lot of new things. The space is huge dogs get to play all day off leash and you get to feed them and train them. Everything about this place is amazing except for the owner.

Cons

During the five months I worked at this place 10 people where in and out TEN !!! Mostly because they couldn’t handle our boss (the owner). During the first month she was really nice and always thanked the staff for doing a great job. After the janitor quit that was when she brought out her true colors she would yell at the staff me and my coworker would go above and beyond to keep her but mostly the dogs happy, we cleaned, fed, bathed and looked after 70+ dogs. It was only two people looking after 70+ dogs for five months because no one lasted longer then 1 week. We had no problem looking after the dogs don’t get me wrong she is a very good dog trainer and she taught us many things we didn’t know prior working at this place. The problem was she didn’t appreciate her employees in the five months I worked there she made me cry twice and said mean things like “do you even think?” “Do you understand?” “Are you dumb?” “Who raised you?” “This is why I pay you so much!” And the list goes on and on. I wasn’t the only only that got treated like that all of my coworkers were going through the same with the owner even the last janitor lady that left before I left she left in tears because she called her dumb and many other things. If I wrote everything I went through with this lady I would never finish. I feel like she took advantage of her employees kindness and need of job. She was the most heartless lady I’ve ever worked with, the reason why I stayed was because yes the pay was good but the bond I created with every single dog there was amazing I will truly miss them all. The pay is good but it’s not worth all the stress she makes you go through physically and mentally. I wouldn’t recommend anyone to work here at all !

Pros

amazing dogs who are fun to work with and care for!

Cons

The owner of this company hired me when two people were working and said we would be building a larger staff. The first day of work she yelled at the girl working in such a rude and deameaning way she quit. From then on in the next three months she hired three other people all of whom she yelled at until they seemed to just leave or not come back. Essentially me and the manager were the only people working to take care of all these dogs (60+ a day) then one day she fired the manager. I wasn't trained at all to be the only employee/train new people who probably wouldnt stay for more than a few months and and was so stressed at the idea of working alone for her- because she can be really nice but sometimes will yell for for 20-30 minutes and say really deameaning things- I was having anxiety attacks daily. I loved the dogs but ended up quitting for my own mental health- not worth the pay .
