WE’RE HIRING: DAY SCHOOL COACH

Do you have a passion for dogs, a solid understanding of canine behaviour, and love the idea of spending your days helping dogs learn, grow, and have a freaking great time?

Suburban Paws is looking for a Day School Coach to join our team!

This is a hands-on role where you’ll work with a small group of up to 6 dogs per day, creating an enriching, positive environment where dogs can be dogs while also building the skills they need for everyday life.

What you'll be doing:

Caring for and working with a group of up to 6 dogs per day
Ensuring each dog's physical, mental, and emotional needs are being met
Providing enrichment, play, rest, and appropriate social opportunities
Working with dogs indoors and outdoors throughout the day
Building practical life skills through everyday interactions and activities
Using positive reinforcement to teach and reinforce skills naturally throughout the day
Observing and responding to canine body language and communication
Adjusting activities and environments based on each dog's individual needs
Helping dogs develop confidence, emotional regulation, appropriate social skills, and independence
Maintaining a clean, safe, and welcoming environment

What we're looking for:

At least 2 years of experience working hands-on with dogs is required.

Most importantly, you MUST:

Have a strong understanding of canine body language and communication
Be able to recognize signs of stress, discomfort, over-arousal, and appropriate social interaction
Have experience using positive reinforcement-based training methods
Understand that behaviour is communication and know how to support dogs rather than simply suppress behaviour
Be comfortable managing a small group of dogs safely and thoughtfully
Be reliable, observant, energetic, and genuinely passionate about canine welfare
Be comfortable working outdoors in all seasons
Be willing to learn and continue developing your knowledge of dogs and behaviour

Why work with us?

At Suburban Paws, we don't believe dogs should spend their day simply being "managed." Our goal is to create a day school experience where dogs are engaged, enriched, understood, and learning skills that actually matter in real life.

You'll spend your days outside, moving, playing, training, problem-solving, and building relationships with dogs — while working alongside a team that takes canine welfare and force-free training seriously.

If you're the person who notices the tiny change in a dog's body language before anyone else does, gets excited about a good training moment, and genuinely believes dogs deserve to be understood, not just controlled — we want to hear from you.

To apply: Send us your resume along with a short introduction about your experience working with dogs and why you think you'd be a great fit for our team.

Pay: $17.60-$20.00 per hour

Expected hours: 25.0 – 38.0 per week

Benefits:

Casual dress
Flexible schedule
On-site parking

Work Location: In person
