Full job description

Aspen Valley Boarding Kennels is looking for a caring, reliable, and enthusiastic individual to join our team.

This is a rewarding, hands-on role within a busy boarding kennel environment and would suit someone who genuinely enjoys working with dogs and takes pride in providing high standards of care. The successful candidate will play an important role in ensuring the health, safety, wellbeing, and comfort of the dogs in our care, whilst supporting the smooth day-to-day running of the kennels. No two days are ever the same, making this an ideal opportunity for someone who enjoys variety, is willing to learn, and can adapt to the changing needs of both the dogs and the business.

In addition to boarding dogs, we also work closely with stray dogs. Applicants should therefore be confident around dogs with varying backgrounds, temperaments, training levels, and behavioural needs. A calm, patient, and welfare-focused approach is essential.

We welcome applications from individuals with experience gained in boarding kennels, dog daycares, rescue centres, veterinary practices, grooming salons, dog walking, or other professional canine care environments. If you have a genuine passion for working with dogs and are committed to maintaining high standards of care, we would love to hear from you.

Flexible and willing to support the needs of the business
Physically fit and capable of carrying out a practical role in all weather conditions

Please note: Applicants must hold a Level 3 OFQUAL-regulated Animal Care qualification and have practical experience working with dogs.

Responsibilities

Providing daily care for dogs, including feeding, exercising, cleaning, and welfare monitoring
Safely handling dogs with varying needs, personalities, and temperaments
Monitoring canine health, behaviour, and wellbeing, reporting concerns appropriately
Administering medication where required and following individual care plans
Maintaining high standards of cleanliness, hygiene, and biosecurity throughout the kennel environment
Following company procedures and safe handling practices
Providing enrichment and ensuring dogs receive appropriate mental and physical stimulation

Supporting the upkeep and presentation of the kennel buildings, exercise areas, grounds, and surrounding property
Reporting maintenance issues and helping to maintain a safe and welcoming environment
Maintaining accurate records and communicating effectively with colleagues
Delivering excellent customer service and representing Aspen Valley Boarding Kennels professionally at all times

Training & Development

We believe in supporting our team and maintaining high standards throughout the business. Participation in ongoing staff training and professional development is an important part of the role. We are looking for individuals who are keen to learn, develop their skills, and contribute positively to the team.

Working Hours

Flexibility is essential. Applicants must be available to work weekends, bank holidays, Christmas periods, and additional hours during busy periods where required.

To Apply

Please send your CV and a brief covering message outlining your qualifications, experience working with dogs, and why you would be interested in joining our team.
