Countryside Pet Resort in Hughesville, MD is looking for you to join our 27 person strong team. We are located on 16325 Prince Frederick Rd. Our ideal candidate is a self-starter, ambitious, hard-working and has a love for animals.

The primary purpose of this facility is to take care of other people’s pets when they have to go out of town. This means that during the summer and around all holidays we are at our busiest. WE CANNOT ALLOW ANY TIME OFF DURING THESE PERIODS! The pets must be cared for 7 days a week, so weekend/holiday work is a probability. Your DEPENDABILITY in this area is critical. If you do not think you can be flexible, please seek employment elsewhere.

If you do not have a genuine love of animals, please do not apply. Keep in mind that we are seeking people who are mature enough to understand and accept the responsibilities we will place on them. You will have to clean up after them, feed them, administer medications, and see to their comfort and security. This requires a lot of hard work and dedication.

You will be expected to perform any task we require of you. We will try to make the best use of your skills and experience, but do not expect to be exempt from the more mundane and unpleasant chores that need to be performed. Floors need to be mopped, cages cleaned, and trashcans emptied. If you get ill at the idea of cleaning up diarrhea or vomit, then you are in the wrong place. You should be able to pick up a 50-pound bag of food by yourself. If you are allergic to animal hair or sensitive to chemicals, please do not apply.

We are looking for mature, responsible people. You must be reliable, patient, intelligent, and capable of independent action. If you must be constantly supervised, or if you cannot find things to do on your own, then you are not the person we are looking for.

We take our profession very seriously. If you wish to work here, then you must take this profession seriously also. If you can make this commitment, then proceed to fill out your job application.
