Job Description:
Our pet-care providers work as Independent Contractors. At any given time you may be handling only one assignment up to multiple assignments per day. Your schedule will vary as it is based on the travel schedules of our clients.
Daily in-home pet-care visits make up the bulk of our business. This requires making daily pet-care visits (approx. 30 minutes in length) to client's homes for the duration of days that the client is gone out of town. Depending on the client's wishes, you may make one morning visit only; one evening visit only; both a morning and evening visit; and any variation thereof as scheduled by the client. All qualified applicants should expect to work a flexible schedule based on business needs that can include days, evenings and weekends.
***As a rule, the same pet-care provider is responsible for all visits for the duration of the client's trip. Therefore, individuals who can only work certain days such as MWF or mornings or evenings only are NOT a good fit for this position (see next paragraph).***
We also offer Mid-Day Service for clients with dogs needing potty breaks or walks as well as an Overnight Service.
***For these positions, we can utilize qualified individuals who are only available mid-day or overnight*** We run a very professional business and only wish to work with well-rounded, flexible individuals who have the utmost integrity and dedication to the job. |
