Hi everyone!
I’m new to the forum but I just wanted to know of you guys’ experience.
I recently started a job as a kennel technician, and I have been feeling very under-appreciated and overworked.
My shift goes like this: I have to take out approx. 27 dogs to potty, clean each kennel (with water, soap, etc... even if they don’t look dirty), wash blankets and bowls and feed them. Then, I have to give them all their medicines. Then if there are baths, I have to give baths (Mondays are between 7 and 9 baths a day). Then, I check on the cats. Then, i take all the dogs out again, sweep and mop, poop scoop the yard, take out the trash and go home. This is all in the morning shift from 8am -12pm. So, 4 hours (most times I have to stay overtime). I am the only kennel tech in these shifts. But it is also my first time working as a kennel tech.
Is this the normal amount of work a kennel tech gets? Or is that too much?
I really would appreciate your answers.
Thanks!!
