It has been a roller coaster, I think the acquisition was definitely rocky and our RM and other upper level management were just not understanding us and our unique issues. I would love for corporate to consider that we may be one pack but each center is still unique and we should celebrate that.

The dogs, and getting to create fun events with my staff.

I like the bonuses, i dont really understand how they work or when we get them but when I do its great!

I love the willingness to come together and to help when needed, and the dedication and true love for the animals on site.

I love the culture of care at our company and being able to understand each others struggles and triumphs and the general feeling of support.

The sense of community and understanding we have of one another, and the sense that we all have the same goal which is to take care our pet guests!

I love when I get to teach my staff something new, and I love when I get to interact with pet parents and tell them all about how their kiddo is doing.

We are very close knit and fun loving, which helps keep the days light. I also love the leadership team we have built, as I know if I have to be out my team can handle things smoothly.

I feel very supported by my leadership team and like how i can be open and honest with them. I feel that they care a lot about mine and my staffs mental health which is very important to us.

Listening to GMs about their struggles within their center and taking into consideration that our lives are ever changing and many of us have never worked in a corporate environment and so far the experience has been lacking. Also facility fixes are a nightmare to get done.

I feel that instead of giving scheduled appropriate raises we are just pushed back with pizza instead of giving us simple deserved increases. Especially for some of us who have now been with DP for over 2 years and haven't seen a single rate increase even though our center is doing extremely well.
