Lawn Care Technician Seasonal

We are a small, local, family-owned Lawn Doctor location looking for the right person to join our crew for our active season (Early spring through late fall).

This is a seasonal position with strong opportunity to return each year and grow with us.

If you want a desk job where no one talks to you, this isn’t it.
If you like working outside, being trusted to run your own day, and being part of a tight-knit team that works hard and laughs a lot, keep reading.

Who You Are
You do not need experience.
You do need the right mindset.

You should:

  • Enjoy working outside (sun, light rain, bugs, dogs — the usual)

  • Be willing to learn lawn care and become a certified pesticide applicator (we train and support this)

  • Be a self-starter who can manage your day without constant supervision

  • Communicate professionally with customers and teammates

  • Have common sense and strong problem-solving ability

  • Be organized and take pride in your work

  • Be reliable and trustworthy

  • Have a safe, clean driving record (you will drive company vehicles daily)

  • Maintain a positive attitude and willingness to grow

You will spend most of your day working independently, so this role is best for someone who is self-motivated and dependable.

Our Core Values
We hire and grow our team around these values:

Integrity – Do the right thing, always
Dedication to Growth – Learn, improve, and get better every season
Extreme Ownership – Take responsibility and solve problems
Gratitude – Appreciate the opportunity and the team
Serve Others – Customers and teammates come first
Resourcefulness – Figure it out and keep moving

Our Culture
We are a close team. We work hard and support each other.
We keep things positive, professional, and team-focused.

We are looking for people who:

  • Work hard and take pride in what they do

  • Own mistakes and learn from them

  • Support their teammates

  • Bring a positive attitude to work

Everyone has tough days. We move forward together and keep the environment healthy and respectful.

What the Job Looks Like

  • Arrive at the shop to review route and prepare for the day

  • Drive company vehicle to scheduled properties

  • Apply lawn treatments safely and according to procedures

  • Communicate with customers and provide recommendations

  • Maintain vehicle, equipment, and product inventory

  • Complete service notes and paperwork

  • Work independently while staying connected with the team

What We Offer

  • Strong, supportive team environment

  • Thorough training and certification support

  • Performance bonuses and incentives

  • Team cookouts, events, and recognition

  • Leadership that supports your growth

  • Opportunities for returning seasons and advancement

  • Competitive pay

This is a seasonal, outdoor, independent role for someone dependable, positive, and driven.

If you take pride in your work, want to grow, and want to be part of a great team, we would love to meet you.

Compensation: $19.00 per hour

Our Franchisees Need People Like You

Here at Lawn Doctor, we have a very simple approach to our work—be safe, have fun, and change the world one lawn at a time. It’s the kind of approach that, not surprisingly, has led us to the highest customer satisfaction and retention rates in the industry.

Lawn Doctor locations across the country offer phenomenal employment opportunities.* Whether you’re an experienced lawn care technician or just starting out on your career path, all you need is a passion for success and a strong work ethic to be a candidate to join your local Lawn Doctor franchise. No matter the task, our independent operators know that every Lawn Doctor employee plays an important role in providing customers with the great results they expect, while making the local community a little happier. Your work will never go unappreciated.

If you enjoy working outdoors, being largely self-directed with little supervision, and would like a chance to help make the world a greener place, we would love to talk to you.

We appreciate your interest and hope to have you on board a local franchise team as soon as possible.

* All Lawn Doctor locations are independently owned and operated. All positions identified here are positions offered by individual Lawn Doctor franchisees.
