• Workdays vary but typically include 1–2 shifts per day.
• An average shift includes 2–6 visits (approximately 1–4 hours total), though there are occasionally single-visit shifts.

• Comfortable with dogs of all sizes and temperaments (some clients’ pets may show reactivity or resource guarding)
• Patience with shy cats and willingness to spend time earning their trust

Requirements:

• Strong verbal & written communication and reading comprehension (must follow detailed care notes)
• Detail-oriented and proactive problem solver
