You're just a number and so are the dogs. - Shift Lead Dogtopia Employee Review

Working with dogs, learning a lot about dogs, upward mobility is possible, management is friendly and helpful

Can be stressful, people are prone to calling out, some changes take too long to be implemented

Dogs and teaching people dog behavior and management

Constant turnover, the pay is not equal to the expectation of availability (6a-9p for management), not all GMs are supportive, prioritize revenue over safety every time until they have to pay a vet bill and decide to listen. Upper management and support office have absolutely zero dog handling experience but they make the policy, special treatment for whoever will do what they're told without questioning safety, my GM looked to talk badly about other staff and created hostility, she was unavailable unless you called her boss, and she violated policies for her own benefit
