About the Job

Pet sitting and dog walking can be a physically intensive job. We might be walking or interacting with dogs that are not formally trained and have few manners, working on un-even terrain, walking up and down flights of stairs, and carrying heavy loads for short distances. The job involves walking, lifting, stooping, bending, and squatting. Pet sitters and dog walkers work in heat, cold, rain, and snow. They can have multiple visit assignments without time for a break.

Our Pet Care positions require the applicant to have a smart phone with mobile internet capabilities (not wifi-only capabilities), and to drive a non-shared reliable vehicle. Our Pet Care Team covers a geographically large area, and applicants are required to drive their own vehicle. Some days our team drives between visits as much as or more than they are visiting with pets.

Availability

Pet sitting and dog walking can be a variable position. Some days we have more visits to complete than others. Our workload is dependent on which families are traveling when. There are weeks where we work very intensive schedules and some weeks where we are very slow. It helps keep the job interesting!

Because of this, we are not able to make guarantees as to how busy an applicant will be at any given time. A "Very Part Time" employee may have weeks where they are not scheduled for any visits and other weeks may be scheduled to their maximum availability. This can be the perfect schedule for the right person!

Also, pet sitting often occurs on nights, weekends, and holidays. Our busiest seasons are November through January and June through August.
