Join Our Team

We’re always looking for great dog walkers and pet sitters to join our team in Morris County and Somerset County, NJ.

WHY YOU’LL LOVE THIS JOB:

IT’S REWARDING WORK

You enjoy building meaningful connections with pets and their owners while making a positive impact in your community.

YOU HAVE FLEXIBLE HOURS

This is the perfect position for those seeking daytime work with availability from approximately 11:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m Monday - Friday and want supplemental income ($100 - $500 per week on average).

YOU ENJOY BEING PHYSICALLY ACTIVE

You enjoy spending time outdoors, staying physically active, and walking anywhere from 1 to 5 miles a day while caring for adorable pets.

YOU ENJOY ALL SIZES AND BREEDS

We work with many types of dog sizes and breeds, from Miniature Pinchers to Great Danes and Cane Corsos (and everything in between).

WE OFFER COMPETITIVE PAY AND BENEFITS

Competitive pay ($100 - $500 per week on average), workers’ compensation, mileage reimbursement, paid time off, paid training, and coverage under our business insurance.

WHY YOU MAY NOT LOVE THIS JOB:

THERE IS NO SET SCHEDULE

Your schedule will vary from week-to-week, there are no guaranteed hours, and clients may cancel or request changes on short notice.

YOU DON’T ENJOY WORKING OUTDOORS IN ALL CONDITIONS

New Jersey weather can be unpredictable, with cold winters and hot summers, and you’ll be working outdoors in all types of weather conditions (hot, cold, rain, snow).

YOU’RE NOT COMFORTABLE WORKING INDEPENDENTLY

This position requires a high level of responsibility and independence. You’ll need to be confident in making decisions on the go and following specific instructions.

YOU PREFER A MORE LOW-ENERGY AND RELAXED PACE

Dog walking is physically active and fast-paced, involving multiple visits, varied schedules, and handling dogs of all energy levels. Those who prefer a slower, more low-energy work environment may find it challenging.

YOU’LL NEED TO USE YOUR OWN CAR AND PHONE

You’ll need to have reliable transportation and insurance at all times and use your own vehicle to travel between dog walking and pet sitting visits. You’ll also need a modern smartphone to use during walks.

IF THIS ALIGNS WITH YOU, WE’D LOVE TO CONSIDER YOU.
