Join the Pack. We Are Always Looking for Good Hands.

Get on our short list. The people on that list get the call first, before we ever post a job.

Here is how we hire. We do not wait until we are desperate and then grab the first person who answers an ad. We keep a short list of good hands, and when a spot opens the people on that list get the call first.

The work is real and the standard is high. Plenty of folks can push a mower. We hire the ones who hold their work to what our clients expect, every yard, every time. Pay is competitive and performance based, with no ceiling for the people who go after it.

The application below takes about five minutes from your phone. Answer it straight. We call every reference, and the next step for a good fit is a paid trial day running the gear you tell us you can run.

Application

Get on the short list.

About five minutes. Be honest. It is the fastest way onto the list, and the fastest way off it if it is not true.

About you
A few yes/no basics
Are you legally authorized to work in the United States?*
Are you 18 years of age or older?*
Do you have a valid driver's license?*
Do you have reliable transportation to get to our shop or job sites every workday?*
This job means being outdoors in Texas heat and lifting up to 50 lbs repeatedly. Can you perform these essential job functions, with or without reasonable accommodation?*
Our crews generally work Monday through Friday and start early, around 6 AM, to beat the heat. Saturday is overtime as needed. Are you able to work that schedule?*
After a job offer is made, are you willing to consent to a background check and a motor vehicle record check?*
Your experience
How many years of paid landscaping, lawn care, or outdoor labor experience do you have?*
For each piece of equipment, tell us where you honestly stand.

No shame in "never used." We would rather know now than on a trial day.

For each: company name, your supervisor's name, a working phone number for them, the months and years you worked there, and what you did. We will call these.

How you work

Yard Dog Landscapes is an equal opportunity employer. We do not discriminate on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age, disability, or any other status protected by law. If you need a reasonable accommodation to apply or to do the job, tell us and we will work with you. A background and motor vehicle record check is run only after a job offer, with your consent. Your first day running equipment is a paid trial day.
