Job description

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 Salt Lake City 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 :

  • Competitive Pay 💰 Make money doing what you love!  Bonuses & Holiday Pay 🎉 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.
  • Have access to a groupchat network of dozens of other self-employed pet care providers across the country who you can ask question or advice about dog care, health and behavior as well as 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 minute private walks or 60 minute group walks).
  • Before your first sitting visit, you’ll meet each client and their dog in person for a meet and greet in their home, winning them over with your warm smile, demeanor and professional approach.
  • You’ll go over the whole care routine, finding out where things are in the home, and discuss contingency plans for emergencies.
  • At the sittings, you’ll precisely follow the directions the client has given for the dog and home care, socialize with the dog, leave the home spotless, and delight the client by sending a daily visit update to them through our pet sitting phone app.

    • Here’s what to expect :

  • Meet & Greet : Meet your canine clients (and their humans) at home to learn about their needs and routines.

    • Dog Care Done Right :

  • Follow detailed instructions to a tee – feeding, refreshing water, cleaning bowls, scooping litter, and administering medications if needed.

    • Happy Hours :

  • Spend quality time with each dog, offering love, cuddles, or playtime based on their unique personality.

    • Walking :

  • For dog walking services, walk dogs in a group and privately, either in the neighborhood or location that you work out with the client.

    • Light Housekeeping :

  • Complete small tasks like watering plants, collecting mail, and taking out trash.

    • Daily Updates :

  • Keep owners in the loop with charming updates and photos that showcase their furry friend’s antics.

    • We have a market-leading app to help you stay connected.   What We’re Looking For   🐾 Essential Traits :

  • At least 18 years old Experience caring for dogs (professional experience is a plus but NOT required) The ability to walk, run, pull, push, bend or reach for extended periods of time Capable of handling all sizes of canines from small to large A smartphone with internet access, texting, and camera capabilities Ability to pass a criminal background check and provide references Compassion, patience, and reliability Organized, systematic, and able to keep track of client schedules and keys Able to handle unexpected and emergency situations Able to perform work that can be very physically and mentally demanding at times   🐾 Desirable Extras : Certification in pet first aid / CPR or experience administering oral meds, injections or fluids Calm, reliable, and organized personality (dogs love consistency, and so do we!) Availability during peak times, especially winter holidays   Why This Job is the Dog’s Best Friend This is a flexible, self-employed role (not an employee W2 position) that’s perfect for part-timers, workers with unconventional schedules, or anyone looking for a fulfilling side hustle.   📆 Choose Your Shifts : Dog Sitting / Walking : 30, 45, or 60 minute visits / walks; 1x, 2x, or 3x daily Morning (6 am – 12 pm) Afternoon (12 pm – 5 pm) Evening (5 pm – 10 pm) Anytime (6 am – 10 pm) 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 single dog owner we’ve met considers their dog an essential part of their family.
  • But, when they go away, knowing what to do and where to turn can be a hard road to navigate.
  • Especially when there are so many seemingly “easy” options out there.
  • In our modern society, it can be challenging finding a dog sitter who is reliable, responsible, and responsive.
  • We’ve seen all too often pet sitters who don’t recognize the profound importance of this.
  • A negligent, inattentive, unknowledgeable dog sitter is not a lesson to be learned, it can be a travesty for both you and your dog.
  • We’re a trusted provider of professional in-home dog care and dog walks.
  • Whether it’s a shy senior dog or a rambunctious puppy, we provide individualized care with a focus on professionalism and love. “Finding a reliable, responsive, and professional dog sitter these days is hard.
  • Providing the highest quality service to our clients is of utmost importance to our company.
  • Your trust and respect must not be violated by anyone you hire to care for your beloved dog and home.” Dan McPartlan (Owner / Founder) Read all about us right here .   Ready to Join the Team?
  • Don’t let this perfect opportunity pass you by!
  • Fill out our quick 3-minute, mobile-friendly application today.
  • We’re excited to hear more about you.

    • P.S. – Candidates must be able to pass a background and reference check

  • Please only apply to one position only, even if you are interested in working for multiple locations.
  • No phone calls please.
  • We receive a very high volume of applications and will respond to persons we feel might be a good fit.
