Thank you for your interest in the role of Animal Attendant / Pet Taxi Driver.
This Position has now been filled.
We have a current Part Time vacancy for an individual to assist us locally with Pet Care and Pet Taxi services. The following information is provided to give prospective applicants sufficient details to decide whether the position would be suitable for them before applying.
Dogmovers is a small family business based at Logan Village with an additional depot on the NSW Central Coast. We transport pets, primarily Dogs & Cats, throughout Queensland, NSW, Victoria and South Australia. We operate similarly to a long distance bus service with a number of set weekly trips operated to a regular timetable plus we provide more Specialised Custom services on demand and locally
We are seeking to employ a locally based person to assist us with the care of animals that stay with us overnight during their interstate trips and to complete local Pet Taxi or delivery services as required.
This role may suit an individual that is already involved in the Pet Care industry such as a Pet sitter, walker or groomer and the successful applicant will require an open Drivers licence, ability to drive both Manual and Automatic vans and their own transport to get to and from work.
This is a Casual – Part Time position which will involve irregular hours to start but is expected to grow into a more regular role for the right person with the opportunity for hours to increase if you are local and flexible enough to also provide backup & support to other local staff.
Animal Care
The Animal care aspect of the role involves caring for animals staying overnight during their interstate trips. This will require early morning and evening work at times and will include walking feeding and monitoring the health of dogs, cats and other animals. This will usually occur on site but there are times where due to the number or the age of the pets it would be more appropriate that they be cared for overnight at home and we would give preference to an individual that is willing and able to do this where it is appropriate.
Driving
The Driving aspect of the role will require a confident and experienced driver with a Manual license. We have a range of vehicles, typically these are commercial Vans and you may be expected to drive different vehicles at times. We expect the bulk of Pet Taxi jobs to be local deliveries around Brisbane or to the Airport however there will occasionally be longer trips throughout South East QLD and this may also involve towing small to medium dog floats.
The role will also require working with Interstate Drivers and other staff at the local depot or at other local meeting points.
We will consider everyone on their merits however in general we are looking for someone with the following qualities:
A Caring, Service Orientated individual.
A desire to provide quality care to our clients Pets.
Living locally in or near Logan Village.
A confident and experienced Driver with a manual license.
A confident GPS user / Navigator.
Previous animal handling skills.
Availability to work flexible hours including early mornings, evenings, weekends, school holidays and public holidays.
Hopefully that will give you a better insight into what the job entails and the type of person we are looking for and we thank you for taking the time to consider it.

The Pet Transport Specialists
Welcome to The Premier Pet Transport service throughout Queensland, New South Wales, Australian Capital Territory, Victoria and South Australia.
The way they make the dog feel safe its a big credit to them
It takes a team to rescue a Great Dane, Dogmovers are very much a big part of that team, I just have to ring and when you can you always manage to fit a dog in.
A lot of the time these big dogs are scared but Rick and Paula who do the North Queensland run are amazing, the way they make the dog feel safe its a big credit to them. Thank you for discounting the dogs travel as we only run on donations we really appreciate it, it helps finding them their forever homes from Cairns to Brisbane….once again thanks guys you do a wonderful job…you are truly Angels

Very helpful and patient
Just wanted to say a huge thank you for your excellent service and care of Mack from Rockhampton to his new home with me south of Brisbane. He had no problems with the travel and arrived very happy. The driver rang early on Monday to give me an approx time of his arrival and then also phoned when he was leaving the collection point before the one where I was to collect Mack.
Everyone I dealt with when making this booking were very helpful and patient, even when I was unsure about whether the RSPCA could deliver him at that end, and I made a number of calls to organise. Thanks so much!

Professional and helpful
I want to say how impressed I am with your service and the care that you showed me, as well as my dog. My dog, Rosie, arrived well and calm and I was so relieved.
The contact that I had with you to arrange her travel from Northern Queensland here to the south, was professional and helpful. i will certainly recommend Dogmovers to anyone requiring their dog to travel. Thank you for your care and concern.

We're so happy with the services and great staff
I had to make a late booking yesterday at 12pm, Dogmovers said our new puppy would be picked up between 3-6pm and was picked up at 3:30pm They assured us our puppy was safe, fed and given water.
Our puppy arrived today at 10:30 am (25.09.13) Paula called use before hand to tel us exact time she was arriving and was their spot on! We’re so happy with the services and great staff, especially Paula!! We would recommend to anyone and everyone needing their new friend transported!
Thanks Dogmovers!!!

We were very impressed with the service
We were very impressed with the service we have received from Dogmover’s. The guy who delivered them was lovely and let my daughter cuddle a Staffy pup he had on board, she fell in love! (with the staffy, not the driver lol) and all in all, we look forward to dealing with you again. The bad point – I had to deal with my 14 year old daughter nagging me about how much she wanted a Staffy the whole 2 hour trip home!

Exceptional service – friendly and helpful.
We had a kitten delivered to us on Monday (from Bundaberg to Burpengary). I would just like to thank you for an excellent service. The driver contacted us to informed of the expected delivery time and called again to let us know when he was stuck in traffic. He provided an exceptional service – friendly and helpful.
I also heard back from the lady that I purchased the kitten from and she also expressed how pleased she was with the service and that she would be recommending your company.

We don't know what we would have done without her
Just wanted to write and thank Paula for her hard work yesterday, with Arnie the great dane that she picked up from Cairns and dropped in Mackay.
Arnie was a very frighten dog and very hard to handle but Paula showed no fear, a real animal person, don’t know what we would have done without her, so thanks again Paula and you would be happy to know after all the growling/showing of teeth/barking and pulling he is now asleep on my bed with my other great dane. I will always use Dogmovers from now on, knowing any dog that’s timid would arrive safely. Thank you so much!

HUGE thank you
Just thought i’d send you a HUGE thank you for the Transportation of our Boxer pup Samson. On pick up, once the trailer was open and i could see and smell all the fresh straw and see how playful he was, not scared up in a corner from the trip i knew i had made the right choice in Dog Movers.

Well done and thank you.
I would like to thank you guys for the delivery of my new hound from Bathurst NSW to Mackay QLD. Although I have used your service on many other occasions, the service remains second to none with your proposed scheduled pick up and delivery, health and well being of the dog, and customer service of your drivers.
I appreciated the early phone call the night before which allowed me to make personal arrangements in time to allow me to meet at the designated point. The dog arrived in the trailer with ample bedding, ventilation, water supply and in very good health.
This is an expression of your team’s professionalism and commitment. Well done and thank you.

Your drivers were on time to the minute
Thank you for getting the kitten to us on Friday. Your drivers were on time to the minute. Their truck was clean and all the animals were very happy to be along for the ride. I’m very impressed with your service and customer service in that you accommodated us in getting Stormy here earlier than planned.
I don’t care how much paid advertising you do, word of mouth can be powerful and I’ll be recommending you guys to anyone needing pet transport in the future. I sent numerous inquiries and not only were you the cheapest and could offer road transport, you customer service is outstanding in this day and age.

Such quality care of our pup while he was with you
Congratulations on your wonderful Business, such quality care of our pup while he was with you Your vehicles are very clean and your driver Paul is a very high standard in professionalism.
We were very impressed with your whole attitude, from our very first phone call to the delivery of the pup. You should be very proud. Whether your dog is worth many thousands of dollars or just a working god. Dogmovers will give it the best of care during its move. We will most certainly be using you again.
