About Us

Flyaway Geese® is a national leader in humane goose control , using highly trained Border Collies to safely and effectively manage Canada geese on commercial properties, parks, schools, and government sites.

This is not a typical job —it’s hands-on, outdoors, and requires independence, consistency, and accountability.

Position Overview

We are seeking a highly dependable, self-motivated Wildlife Control Specialist based in the San Antonio area. This role involves working directly with a trained Border Collie to humanely haze and relocate geese from client properties.

You will be responsible for managing daily service routes, handling a working dog, and representing our company professionally on-site.

What You’ll Do

  • Conduct daily goose management visits at assigned properties
  • Handle and work alongside a trained Border Collie
  • Use humane hazing techniques to move geese off-site
  • Vary visit times and strategies to prevent habituation
  • Document all visits with photos, notes, and reports
  • Communicate with management and occasionally with clients
  • Assist with nest monitoring and egg addling (seasonal, with permits)

What We’re Looking For

Non-Negotiables:

  • Extremely dependable – this role requires consistency every single day
  • Lives in or very near or within driving distance of San Antonio area.
  • Ability to house a working Border Collie (this is required)
  • Comfortable working independently with minimal supervision
  • Physically able to walk long distances in all weather conditions
  • Experience riding a paddle board or willing to learn

Preferred Background:

  • Degree or experience in Wildlife Biology, Environmental Science, Animal Science , or related field
  • Experience with dog handling, livestock, or working dogs
  • Familiarity with wildlife behavior is a strong plus

Work Environment

  • Outdoor work in all conditions (heat, cold, rain)
  • Early mornings, evenings, and occasional weekends required
  • Active, fast-paced, and physically demanding

What Makes This Different

  • Work with high-level trained Border Collies (not basic obedience dogs)
  • Be part of a specialized, growing niche industry
  • Real responsibility and autonomy—this is not a micromanaged role
  • Direct impact on solving real problems for high-end clients

Compensation & Benefits

  • Competitive pay starting at $20.00 per hour
  • Performance-based growth opportunities
  • Ongoing training and support
  • Opportunity to grow within a rapidly expanding company

Important

This role is best suited for someone who:

  • Takes ownership of their work
  • Shows up every day without fail
  • Can think on their feet and adapt in the field
  • Enjoys working with dogs and being outdoors

If you’re looking for a desk job, this is not it.

How to Apply

Submit your resume along with a brief note explaining:

  1. Your experience with animals or wildlife
  2. Your current location 
  3. Your housing situation (ability to keep a working dog)
