Tier 2 Sponsorship jobs

​Teacher’s Pets – Pet Care is growing! We provide top-tier, compassionate in-home pet care, dog walking, and drop-in visits across Saskatoon. ​We are seeking a proactive, reliable, and animal-loving Lead Pet Care Coordinator to help keep daily operations running smoothly. In this hybrid role, you will bridge the gap between hands-on pet care in the field and operational coordination behind the scenes—handling daily scheduling, client communication, and team support so every pet receives the highest level of care. ​Key Responsibilities ​1. Operations & Scheduling (Admin ~35–40%) ​Coordinate and adjust daily dog walking and pet visit routes using scheduling software. ​Respond promptly to client booking inquiries, schedule changes, and general questions via email and messaging platforms. ​Assist in onboarding new clients, organizing initial meet-and-greets, and maintaining accurate pet profiles/care notes. ​Coordinate lockbox/key assignments and ensure staff have the correct access details for each visit. ​2. Hands-On Field Care (~50%) ​Conduct high-quality dog walks, puppy visits, and cat/small-animal drop-ins as scheduled. ​Provide backup field coverage when team members are sick, on leave, or during peak booking periods. ​Send clear, engaging visit report cards with photos and detailed updates to pet parents after every visit. ​3. Team Support & Quality Assurance (~10–15%) ​Check in with team members during daily shifts to troubleshoot issues (lockbox trouble, traffic delays, pet behavioral flags). ​Assist the business owner with shadowing/training newer team members on proper handling protocols and safety standards. ​Maintain supply kits (first aid gear, extra leashes, treats, waste bags). ​Qualifications & Requirements ​Animal Handling Experience: Minimum 1–2 years of professional or formal animal care experience (e.g., dog walker, vet clinic assistant, animal shelter/rescue volunteer, or kennel attendant). ​Communication & Organization: Strong written and verbal communication skills; comfortable multitasking and keeping schedules organized in a fast-paced environment. ​Transportation & Driver’s Licence: Valid Saskatchewan Driver’s Licence (Class 5), a clean driving record, and access to a reliable, winter-ready vehicle for daily field visits across Saskatoon. ​Safety & Security: Must be able to pass a clean Criminal Record Check (including Vulnerable Sector Check). ​Certifications: Pet First Aid & CPR certified, or willing to complete certification within 30 days of hiring (company-sponsored/reimbursed). ​Physical Stamina: Comfortable walking multiple miles per day in varying Saskatchewan weather conditions (rain, snow, heat, and cold). ​Tech Comfort: Comfortable using mobile apps, route mapping tools, and basic digital communication platforms. ​What We Offer ​Competitive Hourly Wage: $19.00 – $22.00/hr + paid mileage for field travel. ​Flexible Growth: Opportunities to transition into an expanded Operations/Assistant Manager role as the company grows. ​Hands-on Support: Direct mentorship from the business owner and continuous training in animal handling and business operations. ​Pet First Aid Certification Support: Reimbursement/sponsorship for industry-standard Pet First Aid & CPR. ​Fun & Meaningful Work: Spend your workdays supporting pets and their humans in the Saskatoon community! ​How to Apply ​Please send your resume and a brief cover note telling us about your experience working with animals and why this hybrid coordinator role is a great fit for you to: fedak.reagan@gmail.com with the subject line "Lead Pet Care Coordinator – [Your Name]".
