I love working at Playful Pups Retreat because it's all about the dogs and so is everyone that works here, my kind of people! All of my coworkers are wonderful people with huge hearts. Everyone here brings some unique quality and/or knowledge to the table and they are always happy to pass it on to anybody willing to grow. We are all so passionate about what we do and the impact we make on every dog we see. I love the variety of what we do and offer, between our two locations, to not only everyone else's dogs but to our own as well. Watching each and every dog that comes through our facilities thrive and grow or just simply having a great experience while in our care makes each day even more rewarding than the last.

When I accepted a position at Playful Pups, I had no idea about the amazing culture and people that would come along with it. Over the past two and a half years I have made lifetime friendships, not only with the humans, but with the amazing pups that come along as well! Each and every one of us aspires to provide the care we would want to see our own dogs receiving.

Building lasting bonds with the dogs and their humans is what I love most about being a PPR team member. I love having the opportunity to work with and experience so many amazing breeds. Working with our outstanding highly trained, professional staff makes for happy, healthy pups and a fun work environment. We love and care for each dog as if they are our own. I’m proud to be part of the PPR family and love everything that comes with it!

Playful Pups is my dream job. My knowledge of dogs and their body language has grown AND continues to grow daily. Being able to work with the dogs in our pack and watching them grow, learn, and love life is an indescribable feeling. My favorite part is getting to know each dog's personality and building a long-lasting relationship with their parents. Every day is a new adventure!

Every member of the PPR family is full of love and support, helping every human and dog grow to their full potential!
