Employee of the month: Kyle Hustead, Doggie Day Care Attendant
Making sure the dogs in day care are having fun and enjoying themselves is all in a day's work for Kyle Hustead, day care attendant at Second Home Pet Resort. "At the same time I make sure they are playing safely," he said. "I watch over them making sure everything goes smoothly."
Kyle, who grew up with all kinds of animals and currently has a dog and a parrot, loves working with animals. "I love them because they don't ever judge you, and on a bad day they are always there for you no matter what," he said. "They are in the moment."
After 8 months at Second Home, Kyle says that working with dogs gives him a purpose. "I get to take care of a life," he said, adding that his favorite part of the job is seeing rescues come out of their shell and helping them recover.
The employees at Second Home are not there just for a paycheck, according to Kyle. "They are there because they want to work a job that is meaningful, and they are there to help the dogs," he said. "Second Home Pet Resort puts care into their animals. We are very genuine."
