Job Description: We’re seeking responsible, reliable, and animal-loving individuals to provide overnight care for our clients’ pets. Overnight pet sitting is one of our most popular services, and we’re looking for sitters to stay in clients' homes overnight. This position is perfect for those with flexible schedules such as remote workers, retirees, or anyone working shifts shorter than six hours! This position is based on client demand. Overnight pet sitting assignments are not scheduled routinely but occur whenever a client submits an overnight request (which has been very frequent as of late!)

Key Responsibilities:

• Stay overnight in clients' homes to provide care and companionship for their pets
• Ensure pets get plenty of love, attention, and playtime
• Provide 2 daily dog walks and basic pet care, including feeding, administering medications, and ensuring pets’ needs are met
• Spend quality time with pets—ensure they’re not left alone for more than six hours at a time, and no more than 8-10 hours per day. The more time you spend with them, the better!
• Communicate regularly with clients and send two reports per day, including updates on the pets’ activities and well-being, as well as fun, high-quality pictures
• Follow any specific care instructions provided by pet owners

Requirements:

• Animal lover with a keen attention to detail
• Must be reliable, responsible, and punctual
• Compassionate, enthusiastic, and patient with pets
• Strong communication skills for sending daily updates to clients and attending in-person client meet and greets
• Must be able to provide overnight care in the specified areas (West Seattle, Burien, Georgetown)
• Must have a reliable vehicle
• A smartphone is needed to track walks, communicate with clients, and send visit reports via our app
• Background check and references required

What We Offer:

• Competitive Pay
• Positive, Supportive Work Environment: Work with a team that truly cares about animals and their well-being
• Opportunity for Growth: As our business grows, there may be more opportunities to take on additional tasks or roles
• Fun and Rewarding: Spend time with animals while getting exercise and fresh air!
