The Chief Toy Tester search is back and submissions are now open for one lucky cat, dog, and their human parents to join the PetSmart team
PHOENIX, May 14, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- PetSmart is on the hunt for the next dog and cat to fulfill its coveted Chief Toy Tester position. After a busy year of product trials and feedback sessions, PetSmart's inaugural Chief Toy Testers – Whiskey and Loki – are ready to hand the leash to another deserving dog and cat. Pet parents are invited to submit their pet's application to become one of the 2024 Chief Toy Testers, reviewing the latest and greatest products from PetSmart and contributing feedback to upcoming collections. In return for their hard work, each Chief Toy Tester will earn up to $10,000.
"We have such a fun and exciting line up of toys, apparel and treats rolling out this year and we cannot wait to share them with our new Chief Toy Testers and all pet parents," said James Elasky, SVP of merchandising and chief merchant at PetSmart. "Our wide assortment has something for every pet, play style, season and price point to help pet parents create more moments of connection and joy, together."
The Job:
Each quarter of their one-year commitment, the Chief Toy Testers will receive boxes full of the newest toys, treats, and yes, costumes, as well as apparel. The Chief Toy Testers will share their official product reviews on social media to let all pets out there know which new toys and treats they must-have. Additionally, the Chief Toy Testers will be official PetSmart models, with their faces featured on displays or signs inside PetSmart stores across the country.
Required Knowledge, Skills, Abilities & Experience:
The next carefully chosen Chief Toy Testers should be committed to providing their fellow furry four-legged friends with recommendations and reviews of new PetSmart products. Ideal canines and felines possess:
- The willingness to test out new toys which may require lunging, running, jumping or puzzle solving.
- A nose for sniffing out the tastiest treats.
- The perfect pose and strut to go down the catwalk and show off the latest pet apparel and accessories.
- Human pet parents who can commit to a one-year partnership contract on their pet's behalf, and the ability to create trendy social media content.
Benefits:
- Bragging rights to share at the water bowl
- $10,000 cash – $2,500 check issued quarterly
- Early access to toys, treats and more
- Pet's face featured on displays or signs inside PetSmart stores
