Job Description
Are you a people person? Do you love pets? Do you command authority when you walk into a room? Do you wake up every morning and think to yourself, "I'm a winner"? Is your attention to detail so strong you should be an Engineer for Boeing? If you answered yes to all these questions we may have the job for you!
We're an established pet care business seeking a Full Time Field Manager to oversee and support a team of dog walkers and pet sitters. We were founded just a few years ago and have already become one of Chicago's largest dog walking companies, and we're constantly expanding. We're looking for an experienced and enthusiastic person to help manage our team!
Some days are super slow and you might not have to leave the office, other days are very busy and you’ll be out assisting the dog walkers. In-the-field dog walking will occur when demand surpasses the ability of our dog walking staff.
This is a very independent job. You must be able to problem solve on your own with little outside intervention. The responsibilities include managing a high volume of scheduled visits and coordinating team member communication.
