Customer Support Representative

Company Introduction :

At BestLife4Pets, we’re dedicated to helping your fur babies lead healthy, active lives. We offer a wide variety of natural supplements and remedies to enhance your pet’s well-being, without artificial ingredients. What sets us apart is our deep-rooted love for our pets – in fact, our CEO founded this company after witnessing the remarkable results of homeopathic remedies on her own dog.

We’re a small company with a big heart and a family team environment; we want our customers and employees to feel like they’re part of our family, too. The BestLife4Pets family shares a common goal of ensuring happy, thriving pets AND happy, thriving owners.

Our team values are curiosity, integrity, and empathy. If you want to be part of a growing company with heart and plenty of opportunities to make an impact, we’d love to have you join our team.

About the Role

As our Customer Support Representative, you’ll play a huge role in making our customers feel heard, understood, and valued. Your goal? To provide solutions that meet their (and their pets’) needs and exceed their expectations.

As the voice of our brand, you’ll handle customer inquiries, provide product recommendations, and help guide our customers toward the right natural pet supplements for their pets. In addition to talking to customers, you’ll also build powerful connections with pet parents through our various sales channels, as well as on social media.
