Job description

Doggie Joggie is looking for reliable dog walkers, runners and pet sitters to join our growing team. We are currently looking for someone who lives in one of the following areas:

-UTC
-La Jolla
-Carmel Valley
-Clairemont

If you live in a different neighborhood, feel free to apply and you will be considered.

Our company offers two main services, and we are seeking candidates able to provide both:

1) Weekly Dog Walking:Work hours are usually between 10am-4pm, Monday-Friday. Availability during the majority of this time through the summer is required at this time. Most of the clients we assign to you will be within 5 miles from your house and if a they need a last minute visit or emergency, it is helpful that you live nearby. This position is ideal for someone with a flexible work schedule (like a freelancer), or a student with morning or night classes.

2) Vacation Pet Sitting with Overnights and Check-ins:Overnight visits usually start between 6:30pm and 8pm, depending on your schedule and the client's needs, and last no less than 12 hours. You are always welcome to "move in", and stay longer than 12 hours if your schedule allows, however it is not required, to accommodate if you have another job during daytime business hours or if we schedule you for other pet sitting check-in visits throughout the day. Most of our clients have comfortable home environments, and they always appreciate any extra time spent with their pets as possible. Check-in visits last between 30 to 60 minutes and occur throughout the day (usually from 7am to 8pm), which could include dog walks, cat care, feedings, etc.

Job requirements:

• Available 9am-3pm Monday through Friday.
• Willing to sleep away from home for an extended period of time, especially during the holidays.
• Genuinely passionate and intuitive about animals.
• A prompt communicator, able to respond in a timely fashion via text, phone call, or email.
• Reliable, trustworthy, and punctual.
• Detail oriented, as each of your clients will have different requests regarding their pets and their homes.
• Fit.
• Able to work with dogs of all sizes and (non-human aggressive) temperaments, and not allergic to cats.
• Independent.
• Must live in one of the neighborhoods listed above.
• Able to pass a criminal background check.
• Able to email updates and photos to clients from a smart phone
• Owns reliable transportation with clean driving record and proof of liability auto insurance.

Compensation:

• Check-in visits/Walks: start at $15.00 for a 30-minute route, or $19 for a 60 minute route.
• Overnight visits: start at $54.00 per 12-hour overnight, (including sleep time).
• EXTRA HOLIDAY PAY: Extra pay is earned for any check-in or overnight that starts on the major holidays. Holiday pay is 50% higher than regular pay.

***PLEASE NOTE*** The hours and pay of this position are not "steady". We are at the whim of our client's plans. Sometimes clients cancel a trip at the last minute, sometimes pets pass away the day before the job begins (yes, this has happened), and sometimes a friend of the client agrees to pitch in at the last minute. But in general, once you're booked for a job, you can count on it. The more availability you have, the more money you can earn. This position could become close to full-time if you don't have other schedule conflicts.***TO APPLY:
-Respond to this ad with a message telling us a little bit about yourself and expressing why you think you'd be a good fit for this position.
-Provide your Name and address (or nearest cross streets)
-Provide a resume if you have one (though no professional pet experience is required)

Thank you!
