Company description
Doggie TLC is a local dog caring/dog boarding concern. Our aim is to give dogs a home away from home, so their Owners feel relaxed and comfortable that their special friend is in a caring and knowledgeable environment. Our approach is to offer dogs a stimulating place, where we encourage socializing, reinforce obedience, and go on long walks mixed with lots of TLC.
This is a hands on role, which involves getting to know the dogs, playing, teaching and taking care of them. It is important to mention that we strive to work around the Owners' timings for drop-off and pick-up therefore flexibility is essential.
The work ambience is friendly, pro-active and relaxed.
