.Welcome Randi (and Ripley) Our New Community Manager(s)
Please welcome Dogster Inc.’s official sixth full-time employee Randi Sachs, our new Community Manager who will champion and protect our ever-widening community. Randi chose us over nine years with Charles Schwab, where she served as Senior Project Manager for Bank Relations. We think the photo above perfectly exemplifies her serious interest in a passion-focused career.
At Dogster and Catster we’ve found that our single most important responsibilities are keeping the servers up and running and keeping the community happy and content. Currently John and I have been fulfilling a near 24-7 on-call role helping to resolve community issues and concerns almost as soon as they arise. We feel this level of commitment goes a long way to explain why we are already some of the most popular pet destination on the web and we knew the community deserved nothing more than a full-time champion and defender to be in their corner every day.
Randi is not only an avowed pet lover … of our 200,000 site members, only 21 people registered their account before Randi. In fact her dog Ripley has been on the site since November 23, 2003, almost 40 days before Dogster was unleashed on the public. I just learned a Yiddish word ‘beshert’ which means ‘meant to be’ which I think is a perfect word to describe Randi being our new community manager.
Yay Randi! We are so psyched you and Ripley are here!!!
From Schwab!!! Heh…
You boys are starting to steal our (Schwab’s) best talent, next thing you know, it’ll be me… LOL!
CONGRATULATIONS!!!
I want to work there too! We love you.
Deb, Fred & Roscoe
WOOF! Congratulations!!! We are so happy for you!
This job is a perfect fit. : ) Enjoy!
Love, P, K and Q
PS: Too bad Dogster doesn’t have an office in NYC —maybe one day?
Congratulations Randi and Ripley!

CONGRATS – but im so jealous! this sounds like my dream job! too bad i just found dogster this week : (

Great job switch! I’m envious but I know it went to a great person. Wow is all I can say. After working in a diff field so long, it must seem like heaven to get a job working with something (pets!) that mean so much to you & thousands of others!
Heck, I wish I knew more programming so I could apply for the other position as softwire engineer. Oh, well, I can’t complain ’cause I work with plants for my own job & enjoy that lots too.
Congratulations on your new career!!
