  • As a kennel assistant, I am responsible for ensuring the comfort and safety of the animals by maintaining a clean, sanitised environment and minimising stress for the dogs.
  • Additionally, I carry out regular health checks of the dogs to identify any potential issues early on and regular inspections of the kennels to maintain standards.
  • I also must make meals for the dogs and administer medications as specified by their owners.
  • I am also responsible for providing one-to-one attention to dogs to foster positive relationships and support distressed dogs.
  • As well as this, I must supervise introducing dogs to one another and their interactions to prevent any altercations and stay calm when handling reactive or nervous dogs.
