What are the responsibilities and job description for the Rufferee position at Doggos?
Are you Ready?
Do you love dogs? No, like REALLY love dogs? Like stop on the street, tell them they are good boy, love dogs? Really? US TOO! Dogs deserve all the fanfare, not only because they are the most amazing creature on the planet, but they do the most incredible things for us- human beings. We believe dogs make humans better people and make it easier for us to connect with each other. So, we created a place that brings dogs and people together in a whole new way.
Doggos the Triad's first and only private Dog Park & Pub, serving Humans that are 21 and Doggos that are friendly, fixed, and vaccinated. We’re a community of like-minded dog people who value a safe, clean, fun place to spend time with their dogs and have fun with fellow dog-loving humans. We serve the best in local and craft beer, cider, wine, as well as creative cocktails and tasty non-alcoholics, too. Plus, we partner with local animal rescues and throw the best dog-centered events, like Harry Pawter’s Birthday and Puppy Prom! At Doggos, we’re all about Dogs, Drinks, and Good Times.
We’re dog people who are committed to making a place unlike any other for our fellow dog people and their pups. We believe what we do is important. We work hard. We have fun. We win as a team. We take every opportunity to be the humans our dogs think we are.
We’re not stopping until there is a local Doggos available to all pups and people who want one. This is an incredible opportunity to be part of an exciting, fast-growing company with a bright future. Are you ready to join our pack?
