The Role
Many agree with us when we say that working with dogs is one of the most joyful and rewarding jobs in the world – and it really is!

The role will require you to display an initiative to always ensure the wellbeing and happiness of every dog in our care, whilst also being able to work effectively as part of a team to uphold our core values.
