The job of the guide is to ensure the wellbeing of the customers, driving instructions and huskytalk. Work language (with customers) is English. The work includes kennel maintainance, kennel cleaning, dog training and basic canine maintainance (nutrition and hygiene). If you are better in some area, we work with that and learn the other. Everything from puppy/dog-training, to guiding, building and snowmobile skills is considered an advantage. Safaris are driven by a snowmobile.
Previous experience is not a requirement but an advantage. However a good attitude towards the work, colleagues, customers and dogs is required.
Drivers licence is required and accomodation can be provided if needed.
