Pros

Dogs, co-workers are awesome because you feel like family and care about your job, discount, bring in your doggy for free daycare and cheap boarding, gain knowledge in subjects regarding dogs(none of this is thanks to the owners, all they do is hire you and schedule)

Cons

1. Owners who do not care about their employees well being, always annoyed, no room for mistakes(even if they are unintentional) they will see you with "useless human" eyes, don't try to work with you because they are in charge, will never have a sincere question regarding your life because they don't care. 2. Understaff....this results in errors even from managers themselves, which I cannot blame them because its insane busy. 3. Stressed over customers who feel entitled and the owners that allow them to be entitled for profit. 4. Gray areas when it comes to allowing certain dogs to leave after daycare hours, but can be written up if they for some reason find that wrong . 5. You are encouraged by one of the owners to overbook groomers who have set a limit for the day, which can result in front staff and groomer in a predicament...pushing you to think you are above them. 6. Over booking boarding, grooming and daycare 7. The facility should be destroyed and rebuild because it is disgusting, the employees have to be in daycare with little ventilation sometimes, and the front sometimes suffers with smell. 8. Overworked because we are understaffed ALL THE TIME, may be because everyone quits, we aren't lazy! WE can definitely work under pressure but they over do it. 9. The owners sometimes don't communicate with each other regarding certain situations. 10. If you make a mistake they will not try to work with you if you want to make a request.

Pros

NO PRO'S - SADLY

Cons

Where do I start??? 1st they get you in to apply by adding that you'll get benefits. Once i was hired I was excited about the benefits , but then they said I couldn't get benefits because I was only working part time. Whatever! So i got hired , NEVER got more hours or benefits. The girl that I would share the shift with was pretty cool. Other than that!!! It really blew chunks!!! They pay! the hours! always changing the schedule :/ And they only have 2 people per daycare. So its like 2 people watching 40 dogs at once , and when that other person goes to lunch. You are stuck with 40+ dogs .... alone!!!! Which is fine! Until they start fighting and you alone have to break up a dog fight. I got bit on my RIGHT HAND , trying to stop these two pit bulls from attacking each other :/ long story short!!! THE OWNERS ARE GREEDY PIGS!!!!! THE INSURANCE THEY HAVE IS CHEAP AF!!!!!!! I got so lucky and my right hand recovered after 1 year of not being able to move it or work. It was really screwd. The owners are 100 % heartless , careless , pigs!!!! Do not work for people the this!!!! ALL K9 lofts should be closed!!!! I highly believe that the owners give 2 craps about dogs or animals. They are probably doing some legal stuff and using k9 loft as a front. Check them out on yelp. SO MANY BAD REVIEWS OF ANIMAL NEGLECT!

Pros

* Get to bring your dog to daycare for free * For the most part the hours can be very flexible

Cons

*Be prepared, it gets really hot and humid in the back. The owners control the A/C and even have it locked so no one can adjust it. They have fans but their so old that they don’t really help at all. *The building is practically falling apart, something is always breaking. *Huge turnover rate, majority of workers quit within six months or sooner *Owners and management are terrible humans *It can get very busy and most of the time you’re short staffed. *If you’re looking for employee advancement it’s nonexistent. *I enjoyed working with the companions in the back, however the front staff love to think their in charge of you and create unnecessary drama.
