Guiding Principles:

1. We love pets and want to take the best possible care of them.
2. We appreciate our pet guests and owners. We always want them to be treated with respect and welcomed into our friendly and professional resort.
3. We do not get a second chance to make a great first impression, and strive to make each one memorable.
4. We are all a part of the Chesapeake Pet Resort & Day Spa team. We are only as strong as our weakest link and can only succeed together.
5. Our daily goal is to provide exceptional pet and customer care that results in returning customers and positive feedback.

Please note:

Pet Resort Assistant positions are primarily manual labor and cleaning and require frequent bending, stooping, crouching, lifting, carrying, walking in sloped terrains, raking leaves and other yard work labor, following detailed instructions and working efficiently and productively in a hectic environment, to ensure all pet care responsibilities are optimized. We also work in all weather conditions, including rain, heat, cold, and snow. All staff must have a valid driver’s license and reliable transportation.

Team members are expected to be available for work during times of need including most weekends, all holidays, and early mornings and/or late evenings, as these are our busiest times. (Our pet guests still eat and go potty on holidays and weekends.)

Preference will be given to applicants with friendly, stable, and outgoing personalities, and with professional appearance and attitude, that aren’t afraid of manual labor. We require background checks, and drug and alcohol screening at any time prior to and/or during any employment with us.
