Job Description

Welcome to Destination Pet. We are One Pack- a united team working together to elevate the love and lives of pet families. Our pet-obsessed professionals create a connected care network of trustworthy partners who bring creative innovation every day. We are revolutionizing the pet industry. Join us!

Animal Care Attendants – Join Our Pack!

We’re currently sniffing out our next Animal Care Attendant at Pups at Play Livingston!

Do you speak fluent “woof” or “meow”? Know the joy of puppy kisses and the chaos of a zoomie's session? If you're passionate about paws and ready to turn your love for animals into a rewarding job, we’ve got a tail-wagging opportunity for you.

At Destination Pet, we’re not just another Pet / Vet care center—we’re a community that lives to elevate the love and lives of pet families. Since 2016, we’ve been serving up best-in-show care from coast to coast with day care, boarding, grooming, training, veterinary services, and more. Whether its belly rubs or brushing, our goal is simple : make pets feel at home and their humans feel at ease.

🎁 Perks & Pay :

Part-time health, mental health, and telehealth benefits.

Pay starts at $15.49 - $16.00 / hour DOE + tips

💪 What You Should Know :

  • This is an on-your-feet, hands-on, sometimes-sweaty kind of job.
  • Must be able to lift up to 40 lbs (golden retrievers don’t walk themselves to the tub).
  • Availability on evenings, weekends, and holidays required pets don’t take days off.
  • Exposure to cleaning supplies, pet hair, and, ahem, “accidents” is part of the gig.
  • Must be able to be on feet for the duration of your shift.
  • Must be able to stand, walk and climb stairs frequently

📋 Reporting To : General Manager

🐾 What You Bring to the Table :

  • A borderline-obsessive love for animals. (We get it. We’re the same.)
  • Prior kennel or animal care experience is a plus, but if you're brand new and eager to learn—we want to meet you!
  • A cool, calm, and professional demeanor—even when a Great Dane steals your mop.
  • A willingness to get your hands dirty (literally).
  • High schoolers, college students, second-job hustlers—we’ve got room in the pack.
  • 🐕 What You'll Be Doing (Besides Making Furry Friends for Life) :

  • Keeping pet enclosures and play areas spotless, safe, and sanitized (because nobody likes a stinky litter box).
  • Serving up meals and fresh water like a 5-star pet resort concierge.
  • Monitoring the health, happiness, and, yes, poop of every pet guest—because details matter.
  • Reporting anything unusual to the General or Assistant Manager (you’ll be their eyes and ears).
  • Supervising playtime, tail-wagging, and the occasional game of fetch.
  • Assisting with brushing and bath time (rubber ducky optional).
  • Handling laundry and belongings so every pet has clean snuggly stuff.
  • Making tails wag. That’s the real goal here.
  • Destination Pet LLC affords equal employment opportunities to employees and applicants without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, genetic information, age, disability or any other characteristic protected by federal, state or local law.
