Job description

Assistant Dog Minder needed for small friendly company

Must speak English.
Must be 100% reliable, fit and healthy.
Must love dogs and be very patient.
Must be comfortable outdoors even on raining/windy days.
Must be comfortable with cleaning up dogs, maintaining cleaning environment (car and house)
Must be available Monday to Friday 9am-1pm (occasionally later).
The job is for replacing a member of staff on holiday in November 2017 but potentially it is a permanent position afterwards.
The ideal candidate must be a dog lover and have experience with dogs, be reliable and flexible.
Also, would need to live close to West London area (transport on candidate expense).
A clean driving license is an advantage.

We look after dogs in West London (Chiswick, Acton, Hammersmith, Sheperds Bush and Ealing areas) and there are usually 4-5 dogs walking at the same time. They are all regulars and know the routine and each other. The job requires either to be walking them in the park or to be at our place (inside and outside space) playing games, entertaining them. If you have a drive licence, you will make occasional trips to pick up dogs or drop them off.
The right person will get the opportunity to expand their knowledge about dogs, dog training, dog psychology and attend paid pet first aid and dog training courses.

Initially for starting in November 2017 qualifications are not required as training will be given. So if you love dogs we can teach the rest.
Please send your CV and write a few sentences of your experience with dogs and a bit about yourself and whether you have a driving licence. Without these your application is not considered for interviews.

Many thanks
