Our RCO family keeps expanding, and over the years some of our sitters have had the absolute audacity to be so good at their jobs that they&rsquo;ve moved into leadership positions - which, of course, means we get to welcome someone new to the team.
Here&rsquo;s the vibe:<ul><li>
I&rsquo;m looking for someone so reliable their Google Calendar trusts them.</li><li>
Someone who genuinely loves animals and appreciates that professional pet care is a real job with real responsibility.</li><li>
Someone who can follow detailed instructions, send the world&rsquo;s cutest pet photo updates, and doesn&rsquo;t flinch when a client&rsquo;s chihuahua wakes up and chooses chaos.</li></ul>
RCO is special. Our clients trust us with their furry family members, and our team takes that seriously while still having a blast together.
This isn&rsquo;t a job for just anyone &mdash; but for the right person, it&rsquo;s one of those &ldquo;I can&rsquo;t believe this is my job&rdquo; roles.<h2 class="jobSectionHeader">
The criteria (non-negotiable):</h2><ul><li>
MUST have reliable transportation and be able to consistently service clients in Southbury, Woodbury and nearby towns

MUST have regular weekday daytime availability 
Midday (10am&ndash;3pm) is our busiest time.</li><li>
MUST be available one weeknight AND Saturday or Sunday</li><li>
MUST be trustworthy, communicative, and detail-oriented 
Our clients depend on accurate updates and consistent routines.</li><li>
MUST be comfortable working independently while also being part of a supportive, drama-free team</li></ul>
Bonus points if you:<ul><li>
Love sending photo updates as much as clients love receiving them</li><li>
Can handle both a 95-lb loveable goofball and a 6-lb chaos gremlin</li><li>
Are the type of person who triple-checks they locked the door (we see you and we appreciate you)</li></ul><h2 class="jobSectionHeader">
The details:</h2><ul><li>
Part-time, typically 10&ndash;20 hrs/week</li><li>
Weekday midday availability required; weekends/holidays optional but a huge plus</li><li>
