Pet Taxi Driver/Doggy Daycare Assistant
Set in Morpeth we are the North Easts largest 5 star rated purpose built doggy day care centre operating since 2018, we are looking to recruit a driver for our pet taxi!
Your duties will include
● Drive our purpose-built van to collect our clients’ dogs from their homes and then drive them to our centre. We have clients from Blyth to Morpeth and everywhere in between! You will pick up dogs from these locations and you’re welcome to take your van home with you in the evening.
● Supervise the dogs, keeping them safe, happy, watered, cool etc.

● You are great with customers. You will be face-to-face with many of our lovely clients when you pick up and drop off the dogs, so a charming disposition and being able to speak good English are essential qualities.
An NVQ Level 2 or above in Animal Care And Welfare or relevant qualifications that are OFQUAL recognised would be preferred but not essential.
