NOW HIRING: WEEK DAY PET CARE PROFESSIONAL

Your 4 Legged Pet Service is seeking a reliable, compassionate, and detail‑oriented team member to provide in‑home pet care for our clients. This includes caring for pets and maintaining basic household tasks while clients are away.

Responsibilities

• Walk dogs in neighborhoods and on sidewalks
• Let dogs out for playtime and exercise
• Feed pets and refresh water
• Clean up after pets and scoop litter boxes
• Administer medications when needed
• Provide affection, attention, and TLC
• Water plants and collect mail for traveling clients

Week Day Pet Care Position — Monday thru Friday

We currently have one weekly midday position available, requiring open availability from 10 AM to 4 PM Monday thru Friday with a one weekend a month commitment. Occasional evening/morning help may also be needed.

We assign clients as close to our “home base” as possible to maximize your earnings. Most travel distances range from 2–8 miles, with a maximum of 10 miles unless you choose to travel farther.

Shifts may range from 2 hours to 6–8 hours, depending on client needs.

This role requires strong reliability. While emergencies are understood, no-call/no-shows result in immediate termination, as pets depend on you to complete your scheduled visits.

Schedules are built based on the entire team’s availability to ensure fairness and consistency.
