Responsibilities:

Our service area is near Colorado Springs. You must be comfortable working outdoors, all four seasons in Colorado Springs.
Physically fit to handle pets of various sizes and temperaments during walks and playtime.
Passion for working with animals, demonstrating patience and compassion.
Proven face-to-face communication skills, over the phone, or on messenger. We use a dedicated app for schedules, pet information, and client communication.
Ability to follow detailed instructions and special care requirements for each pet.
Some level of personal experience in dog walking or pet sitting is required.
We also help beyond pet care. Our service includes additional household help, such as taking out the trash, bringing in the mail, or watering plants.
When performing almost overnight services, we often provide meals, medication, enrichment, and litter box cleanings for cat care services.

Ideal Candidates:

Animal Enthusiast: You genuinely love working with animals, ensuring their comfort, safety, and well-being. This is a fun job but a permanent position, not gig work.
Candidates with prior professional or volunteer experience are encouraged to apply.
Responsible: You can be trusted to care for clients’ pets and homes, maintaining the highest standards of security and service. If you have experience working independently and without supervision, this will be an easy environment in which to thrive.
Proactive: You handle unexpected situations calmly and resourcefully, taking the initiative where needed. We work as a team and need critical thinkers who can help.
Detail-Oriented: You follow through with specific pet care instructions and attention to home maintenance tasks.
Reliable: You are punctual and consistently dependable, embodying professionalism in all interactions. This is especially important for clients with scheduled feedings or medications.
This role is designed to be part-time. Candidates with flexible schedules will enjoy our work environment.
We are on the move during our shifts. If you have driven a vehicle professionally before, this will be a refreshing experience with animal visits during your shift. All pet care services are performed from our client residences.
