About the Facility
Situated on 100 pristine acres in Southern PA, this exceptional sanctuary facility is the epitome of a high-quality dream come true for its 4 legged residents! The owner of this facility came originally from the AA Hunter/Jumper circuits, and carries that same level of care and attention through to the lucky rescues who reside here. This non-profit sanctuary ensures that its residents want for nothing thanks to the generous contributions of its many donors and the hard work of its top-class employees! For those looking for a professional working environment without the high-stress demands of traveling and working on the show circuits, this is the out-of-the-box solution for you!
Job Description
We are looking for an experienced, detail oriented, and motivated professional to join this unique team! If providing 5* care to a herd of retirees and rescues in a laid-back and consistent stay-at-home environment sounds pretty good, we want to hear from you! This individual will ideally be experienced in all facets of grooming, care, and basic groundwork with a passion for working with animals from a variety of backgrounds. While this is a fairly standard care/maintenance role, this facility has a strong focus on ensuring that its employees have proper work/life balance and a sustainable workload. Stall cleaning is kept light and efficient, while still ensuring top-quality living standards & facility upkeep, and much of the routine responsibilities center around the management of vet/farrier/dental schedules. For the right individual, there will be ample ground training/handling opportunities provided along with the daily care responsibilities that all team members pitch in on.
