We're looking for awesome pet people!
Boston Fetch is a growing dog walking/pet sitting company in Boston, and we are on the lookout for some new Jamaica Plain/Roslindale/West Roxbury Dog Walkers/Pet Sitters. It's an awesome job with a lot of cool perks, but it's a lot of physical work with animals, plus it's mostly outside, so isn't for everyone. See below for the kind of person we're looking for.
You:
- Have experience in animal care (required)
- Are dependable, reliable and flexible
- Are willing and able to complete the National Association of Professional Pet Sitters Certificate Course (https://petsitters.org/page/NAPPSUniversity)
- Have excellent time management
- Are positive and patient (especially with animals!)
- Are highly communicative and respond to requests/questions promptly
- Have great attention to detail
- Are available during the middle of the day (i.e. 10:30 - 4:00, when most of our walks take place) during the week
- Live in (or very near) Jamaica Plain or Roslindale
- Can pass a background check
- Have professional references that can be contacted
- Have a smart phone (we use a mobile app for services)
- Are personable with customers and happy to represent Boston Fetch well at all times
- Are interested in developing professionally in the pet services industry (preferred)
Some of the good stuff:
- Earn up to $500 a week
- Paid sick leave
- If hired, you will NOT be a 1099 contractor, but will be an employee (part-time)
- Be a part of our employee pathway (still in development)
- You'll have the opportunity to earn bonuses for customer and staff referrals
- You can increase your income substantially by doing weekend walks and pet sitting
- Work for a fast growing company with lots of potential for development
- Lots of schedule flexibility
