Professional Dog Sitter – A Purrfectly Flexible Opportunity!

Do you love dogs? Are you great at customer service and have a flexible schedule? Do you dream of turning your passion for canines into a rewarding job? If so, The Comforted Canine is looking to contract immediately with a self-employed Dog Sitter in the Phoenix metro area.

The position is very flexible : you set your own hours, service area, and when you want to work . Get paid to take care of adorable dogs—a dream for anyone who loves tails, barks, and paws!

The Perks

Here's what's in it for you :

  • Make money doing what you love!
  • Receive bonus pay for working on holidays, accepting short notice requests, client referrals, positive feedback by your clients, and more.
  • Many clients give generous gratuities which are 100% paid to the sitter.

Flexibility

  • Depending on your location and availability, you can work as much as you'd like, with peak demand during holidays and summer.
  • Community

  • It\'s not just about the work. Access to a group chat network of self-employed pet care providers across the country for questions or advice about dog care, health and behavior, and community resources for fostering or adopting dogs (and cats) in need of homes.
  • A Day in the Life of a Dog Sitter

    Dog Sitters visit dogs in client's homes for drop-in visits (30, 45, or 60 minutes, once or twice daily or for 10-hour overnight stays) or dog walks (30, 60, or 90 minutes for private walks or 60 minutes for group walks). Before your first sitting visit, you'll meet each client and their dog in person for a meet-and-greet, review the care routine, and discuss contingency plans for emergencies. At the sittings, you'll follow client instructions, socialize with the dog, leave the home spotless, and send a daily visit update through our pet-sitting app.

    Here's what to expect :

  • Meet & Greet : Meet canine clients (and their humans) at home to learn about needs and routines.
  • Dog Care Done Right : Follow detailed instructions for feeding, water, bowls, litter, and medications if needed.
  • Happy Hours : Spend time with each dog based on their personality.
  • Walking : Walk dogs privately or in a group, based on client arrangement.
  • Light Housekeeping : Small tasks like watering plants, collecting mail, and taking out trash.
  • Daily Updates : Provide updates and photos through the app.
  • What We're Looking For

  • At least 18 years old
  • Experience caring for dogs (professional experience is a plus but not required)
  • Ability to walk, run, pull, push, bend or reach for extended periods
  • Capable of handling all sizes of canines from small to large
  • Smartphone with internet access, texting, and camera capabilities
  • Ability to pass a criminal background check and provide references
  • Compassion, patience, and reliability
  • Organized and able to keep track of client schedules and keys
  • Able to handle unexpected and emergency situations
  • Able to perform work that can be physically and mentally demanding
  • Certification in pet first aid / CPR or experience administering meds, injections, or fluids
  • Calm, reliable, and organized personality
  • Availability during peak times, especially winter holidays
  • Why This Job is the Dog's Best Friend

    This is a flexible, self-employed role (not a W2 employee) that's perfect for part-timers, those with unconventional schedules, or anyone looking for a fulfilling side hustle.

  • Dog Sitting / Walking : 30, 45, or 60 minute visits / walks; 1x, 2x, or 3x daily
  • Overnight Visits (10-hour stays in the client's home)
  • Morning or afternoon pack walk (up to 6 dogs)
  • We'll match you with clients based on your availability. While we need reliability, the schedule is flexible within the timeframes chosen by your clients.

    About Us

    The Dog Care Equation = Reliability + Responsibility + Responsiveness.

    Every dog owner we've met considers their dog an essential part of their family. When they go away, knowing what to do can be challenging, especially with many options available. We're a trusted provider of in-home dog care and dog walks, offering individualized care with a focus on professionalism and love.

    "Finding a reliable, responsive, and professional dog sitter these days is hard. Your trust and respect must not be violated by anyone you hire to care for your beloved dog and home."

    Dan McPartlan (Owner / Founder)
