As a Pet Care Retail Sales Associate, you play a leading role in providing the guests to our pet store with a positive experience.

You also efficiently operate the cash register. This involves accurately entering sales information, receiving payments for products, and processing credit card transactions. With a smile on your face, you greet customers and wish them the best on their way out. You enjoy serving others and exceeding customer expectations!
