Pros
Dogs, obviously. The dogs made this job worth it because who doesn't like to get paid to play with and cuddle dogs?
Cons
The dogs are poorly selected, meaning the owners of this business are just out for every penny they can get. This results in some aggressive, or otherwise dogs that just aren't suitable for being in big groups, being accepted into daycare. Hence, you have regular scuffles breaking out between dogs and minor injuries to employees occurring regularly. Myself and several other people were bitten during our time there and several dogs were kicked out in the year I worked there. Also, Mark and Kelly are legitimate con artists and they choose to hire younger people for a reason, that being so they can pull the wool over your eyes and take money that you rightfully earned if you're not paying attention. As I was employed, one employee reviewed his check and realized that he wasn't being paid overtime. He was missing several hundred dollars over the course of MONTHS working there and when he found this out and told the other employees, many more calculated their overtime and found that they were being ripped off in the same way. This resulted in Mark and Kelly paying back everyone who was not paid for their overtime. They are unethical and happy to take advantage of their young, dedicated staff to put more money in their own pockets. They will also work you as hard as they can get away with and disregard your availability. I asked for 15-20 hours and they put me on for 30-35 on average. Also, Kelly can be very catty if you're a young woman. She made several catty remarks to me like a high school girl in my time there. Once I came to work with no makeup and my hair not done and she looked me up and down and said, "You look so different today. Probably because you don't have all that make up on and your hair is flat". So on top of being greedy, she's takes jabs at younger women to feel better about herself. Pathetic and beyond unprofessional.
