Who We Are

At PAWSitive Solutions, LLC, our mission is to provide "total peace of mind" for pet parents. Founded and led by a veterinary professional with over 20 years of experience, we are not a casual app-based service—we are a premier, professional in-home care provider.

We are looking for dependable, animal-loving specialists to join our team in Northwest Charlotte, including Mount Holly, Huntersville, Denver, and Stanley. If you are a local resident looking for a rewarding role where you can build lasting relationships with pets (and their people), we want to hear from you!

Flexible Career Paths

We offer two distinct ways to join our team, allowing you to choose the schedule that fits your life:

1. Daily Mid-Day Visits & Dog Walking

• The Role: Conduct 1–4 visits per day for exercise, feeding, and enrichment.
• The Schedule: Perfect for those with mid-day availability (typically 10 AM – 2 PM).
• Requirements: Must be available for at least two weekends per month and a rotation of major holidays.

2. Professional Overnight Care (9 PM – 7 AM)

• The Role: Provide a 10-hour stay in a client’s home for overnight security, routine care, and companionship.
• The Fit: Ideal for professionals with full-time day jobs or students looking to earn extra income while staying in a cozy home environment.

What You Bring to the Team

To maintain our "gold standard" of safety and care, all candidates must meet the following:

• Reliability: Valid driver’s license and a reliable, insured personal vehicle.
• Tech-Savvy: Comfortable using a smartphone for scheduling and sending real-time photo/video updates to clients.
• Commitment: We ask for a minimum 6-month commitment to ensure consistency for our furry (and exotic!) clients.
• Integrity: Must be able to provide professional references and pass a background check.

The PAWSitive Advantage

Why walk with us? We value our team as much as our pets!

• Zoned Assignments: We keep your visits within 3–10 miles of your home—less time in traffic, more time with pets.
• Professional Pedigree: Work under the guidance of a vet-tech-led company with established systems.
• Autonomy: Manage your assigned zone while building long-term bonds with your regular "pack" of clients.
