Oh Snap!! Who is ready for employment at DogVacay.com as their Product Manager?

So what’s all the hub­bub about? Dog­Va­cay is an online com­mu­ni­ty that has tens of thou­sands of hosts vet­ted and insured dog sit­ters across the coun­try ready to care for your dog like a mem­ber of their fam­i­ly. It’s a safe, con­ve­nient and afford­able way to make sure your best friend is in good care. DogVacay.com was found­ed in 2012 by a hus­band and wife team (and their two pup­pies) who did­n’t believe in pay­ing hun­dreds of dol­lars to leave their dogs in a cage at the ken­nel. They began by open­ing up their own home to guest pooches and real­ized it was the start of some­thing special.

Even­tu­al­ly thou­sands of dog lovers across the coun­try applied to join the com­mu­ni­ty and host dogs in their own homes. DogVacay.com has been praised for rev­o­lu­tion­iz­ing pet care and has been fea­tured on ABC, NBC, CBS, Fox, CNN, The Wall Street Jour­nal, The New York Times, USA Today and oth­er major news outlets.

In a year and a half, Dog­Va­cay has grown from 5 employ­ees and 3 crowd­ed desks to 50+ employ­ees in our dog-friend­ly office just a few blocks from the beach in sun­ny San­ta Monica.They’ve been named one of the hottest star­tups in Los Ange­les by Busi­ness Insid­er, Ven­ture­beat and many oth­ers. This com­pa­ny is grow­ing faster than ever and is con­tin­u­ing to expand. This includes their Prod­uct Team which you very well could become a part of. They’re look­ing for a pas­sion­ate and user-focused Prod­uct Man­ag­er or Direc­tor (depend­ing on expe­ri­ence and abil­i­ty) to join them in chang­ing the way peo­ple care for their pets.
