Professional Pet Guardian & Home Sitter

Excellence in pet care requires more than just a love for animals; it requires a commitment to safety, integrity, and professional reliability. Four Seasons For Paws is searching for thoughtful and energetic people to join our fun, collaborative team as Home and Pet Guardians. This position offers the chance to move away from a traditional desk job and into a meaningful role where you are a trusted protector of both pets and their homes.

What You'll Be Doing:

• Providing personalized care (walks, feeding, medication, play, etc.) to dogs, cats, and other small animals in their homes.
• Building trust through clear, timely communication with clients and our team.
• Respectfully caring for clients' homes (security checks, mail, plant care, etc.).
• Managing your schedule independently using our mobile app.
• Thriving in a fast-paced, physical role that keeps you moving outdoors in all weather.

What We Offer:

• Great Pay: $16.00/hour base wage plus tips and paid mileage ($0.20/mile) between visits. Our Guardians typically average $20 to $25 per hour and are paid weekly.
• Schedule: Part-time, flexible hours (up to 25 hours a week)
• Supportive Team: Work alongside passionate and like-minded individuals.
• Employee Status: W-2 employment (not a contractor).
• Professional Benefits: Paid Sick Leave, time and a half for holidays, Pet Sitter Certification, Pet First Aid & CPR Certification, and paid on-the-job training.
• Security: We cover you with bonding, General Liability, and Workers' Comp insurance.
• Growth: Raises and advancement opportunities are available after 6 months. We only promote from within—every leader starts right here as a Guardian.

Who We Are Looking For:

We don't require professional pet care experience—we can teach you the technical skills. We hire for heart, integrity, and willingness to learn.

• You must be highly dependable and professional.
• You genuinely love working with animals, even when the job is messy (it can get messy!).
• You must be physically able to handle large dogs and the physical demands of the job (lifting, bending, walking long distances).
• You are a self-manager who can follow detailed instructions, communicate effectively, and think ahead.
• You have flexible availability to work weekdays, weekends, and holidays.
• We are currently in need of weekday 10am-3pm availability in BRIGHTON.

Requirements: Must have a reliable, insured vehicle, a valid driver's license, a smartphone with a data plan, and pass a comprehensive background check. You must also be 21, live within 15 minutes of one of Brighton, Howell, or Pinckney, and be able to work with us for at least six months.
