Join Our Team
We Are Growing!
We are always looking for pet-lovers to join our team. Because of the driving involved, we will give preference to applicants who live in or near Milton, Mass.
Our dog-walkers usually work up to five days/week (Mon-Fri) between the hours of 11:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. We are flexible so can work around schedules, however, availability during those hours is preferred.
Our pet-sitting clients range from dogs, cats, reptiles, and small caged animals. These assignments vary and may occur during weekends, holidays and school vacation periods. Therefore, applicants must be prepared to work during those times.
