Are you a passionate animal lover who loves to provide top-notch care to every pup you meet? Do you love a job that allows you to think on your feet and create adventure every day? If yes, then our team is a perfect fit for you!

Why is working at Skiptown so great?!


  • Our Skiptown culture is fun and friendly. We may not be Olive Garden, but it is true that when you’re here, you’re family.
  • We never compromise safety - for you or the pups. All daycare dogs are required to complete a compatibility session to determine which of the 12 playgroups they are best fit for based on their age, size, and play style. This not only sets up our doggos for success in having fun while they’re with us, but makes it a better experience when you’re caring for them, as well!
  • It’s never a boring day at Skiptown! Maybe this is a given, but when you’re hanging out with dogs every day, there is certainly never a dull moment and each one is filled with adventures and fun.
  • We want to set you up for success. We provide over 25 hours of classroom and on-the-job training so that you can feel confident and prepared to lead your puppy playgroups.
  • A modern approach to pet care! We provide a comprehensive app that gives you all the info you need in the palm of your hand including playgroup info, pet personalities, and facility & boarding schedules to make it easier for you to care for our pups well.

Life at Skiptown

Skiptown (formerly Skipper) is a tech-enabled hub for dogs and their people. The trusted pet services company provides pet parents with first-class dog walking, daycare, and boarding services, as well as a membership-based dog park and bar – all powered by the Skiptown mobile app. Skiptown has secured thousands of members since opening the first location in Charlotte, NC just five months ago in the midst of the global pandemic. Skiptown offers an indoor/outdoor turfed dog park, a bar for humans, dog daycare, overnight boarding, a grooming salon, and dog walking services. From valet daycare drop-off to "Skippers" who monitor the pups at play, Skiptown's dog-focused design and high-end hangout is about giving peace of mind to pet parents and joy to their four-legged family members. Skiptown's proprietary technology platform streamlines booking and account management, sends multiple daily visit reports, pairs dogs to playgroups based on personality type, and allows for a fully customized experience for every dog. Backed by private investors and high-profile venture capital firms, including Techstars Ventures, Bull Creek Capital, and Firebrand Ventures, Skiptown is poised for growth, especially in light of the anticipated, post-COVID surge in demand for convenience-driven pet care and high-end hangouts. Founded in 2016 and headquartered in Charlotte, N.C., Skiptown is expanding into Dallas in 2021 and plans to open locations in Atlanta and Nashville by the end of 2022.
