Job description

Dog walking on “the apps” isn’t all that it’s cracked up to be.

Are you tired of an inconsistent schedule?

Do you want to actually make a living walking dogs and be able to create a livable budget for yourself?

How about having the protections of being an employee?

Or maybe you just want to work with a team and have the support of local on-call managers when you find yourself in a jam?

You don’t have to do this alone.

There is a better way to be a dog walker!

About Us :

  • We’re a three-time Best of Philly winning, family-owned company.
  • Our 20+ employees make up the best dog walking team in Philadelphia.
  • Our team has done over 800,000 walks since 2005 and we visit hundreds of homes each weekday.

Job Summary :

  • We're looking for an employee who would be expected to complete 8-10 dog walks per weekday in the South Philly and Passyunk Square neighborhoods of Philadelphia.
  • Our employees are compassionate, consistent and honest and we’re looking for a new team member that embodies these qualities.  Job Requirements :

  • Be able to work Monday-Friday 10AM – 4 : 30PM.
  • Employees must be able to handle the physical requirements of the job.
  • This includes 6-7 hours of active walking and commuting to various client's homes.
  • Must be able to handle dogs of different sizes, breeds and temperaments.
  • Willingness to work various weather situations :

  • sleet, snow, heat waves, and 40-degree rain. (Every day can’t be 70 degrees and sunny.) Access to reliable transportation. (Bike, motorcycle, scooter or car.) We have a concise service area, but Minders can expect a 2-5 minute commute between each home / walk via some form of transportation.  Be able to follow instructions and provide care accordingly.
  • Willingness to participate in ongoing paid training, and paid staff meetings. (We also have optional social events for our employees too.) Great Candidates Must Have :

  • Urban dog handling experience.
  • If you do not have a dog of your own, having dog handling experience is absolutely required.
  • Great writing and verbal skills for communication with our clients.
  • Show us your writing skills on your application questions.
  • We are looking for folks who take the time to write thoughtful answers on our job application about why they want to join our crew.
  • The ability to work independently and maintain a field-based schedule.
  • Benefits :

  • Generous starting pay and Direct Deposit.
  • Paid time off is included for all of our employees.
  • All of our walkers are hired as employees, not Independent Contractors.
  • We offer job stability and support.
  • Consistent weekday scheduling.
  • The “gig” economy gets a bad reputation, and a lot of it is deserved.
  • Let us show you that there is another way to walk dogs (and make a living doing so.) Working for a small business is vastly different than working for a tech corporation.
  • We’re looking for candidates who want a career as a caregiver, supported by a local small business that has been around for over 20 years.     Powered by JazzHR
