A friendly, upbeat person who genuinely loves dogs and people. Someone who takes pride in running smooth, well-organised events and can bring positive energy to a full day of sessions. You should be reliable to your core, able to think on your feet and committed to building a long-term role with our Sydney team.

- Primary commitment: Sundays
- Hours: 7am to 5:30pm

Oh yeah, it is the most fun job in the world, and is incredibly rewarding. You’re not just running events - you’re supporting puppy socialisation, helping them grow confident around people, and working alongside some amazing breeders and rescue partners who deeply care about their pups.
You’ll be part of an incredibly warm, happy and uplifting community of attendees who come ready for good vibes, big smiles and the cutest chaos imaginable. Every event feels special, the energy is always high, and you get to be the person who brings it all together.
