    Petsmart job

    Hi everyone...

    I started at Petsmart as a Senior pet care specialist and today I got to spend from 9:00am til 1:00pm in the play rooms! My favorite was the big dog room where the bigger, more aggressive dogs play. I got to play with Tuscon, the 180lb Great Dane, and Solomon, the 150lb Rottie. Tuscon came over to give me a kiss, and I think his mouth was big enough to cover my entire face.

    Peej and Bailey get to go to work with me and spend the day in doggie day camp on Friday. I hope they behave themselves around that many new dogs!

    Anyway, what have the rest of you been up to?

    CONGRATULATIONS! I can imagine that has got to be one of the best jobs. EVAR. Do share pics (if allowed)!

    Myself? Applying at Petsmart. Seriously.

    I am slightly irritated because the folks who run the one here don't have ANY idea what they are doing. You know how they do the job preview thing? Well, I was doing one of my bi weekly check ins and the manager that I spoke to said, "Well, um. I don't even know if we are using that system to hire people any more. You'll just have to apply again." I have no problem with applying again but their incompetence and lack of knowledge about their duties aggravates me.

    Also, applying at vet clinics and whatnot.

    Sounds like fun! I hope Peej and Bailey enjoy their day at doggy day camp!

    I love my job at Petsmart too. I'm one of their dog trainers, and LOVE it. I get paid for puppy kisses and to watch them grow up in front of me.

    Yeah, I have issues with the management too, but I'm not going to let that ruin the fun I have with the pets. I wish we had the Petshotel in ours. We don't even have a vet in ours yet (but then again, its a new store)

    Yes, its called the PetsHotel. They offer Doggie Day Care, Doggie Day Camp and boarding.

    I never thought I'd see anything sad there...it's a fun place, after all. Today 3 dogs between the ages of 10 and 13 were dropped off for a week. One was full of mats and stickers, one was almost totally blind and the other had arthritis. I sat in their kennel with them for awhile and almost cried so I had to leave them.

    On a brighter note, two boxers tried to eat my hair.

    Sounds FUN!
    I didn't even know about the PetsHotel! Ours just got a Banfield. I wanted to work at Petsmart but I can't drive yet and walking there takes an hour because it's 3 miles away. I got a job at a Walgreens a few blocks from my house. Niņo and I sometimes walk to Petsmart though!

    Wow! That's cool that your PetSmart has doggy day care.

    That's a shame about those dogs. Give them a big hug for me.

    Watch out for your hair!!
