Dog Walker

Love Dogs? Join Our Fun and Flexible Team!

Are you a passionate animal lover seeking a job that brings you joy and fulfillment? Look no further! Join the dedicated and fun team at Barks & Recreation, a growing dog walking and pet sitting company serving New London County.

If you're the type of person who greets the dog before the human and friends ask you to watch their pets, we want you on our team

As a valued member of the Barks & Rec team, you'd be working outdoors, spending your days hanging out with dogs and cats, working on those daily step goals, and even listening to your favorite podcast during your traveling time between clients! Plus you've got a supportive and fun-loving group of fellow animal enthusiasts ready to help you as needed!

So, what is the job?
You'll drive to client homes, walking their dogs in the neighborhood, driving the pup to a local trail, picking up another dog for a fun Doggy PlayDate. And, from time to time, you'll have the privilege of caring for other beloved pets, like cats, chickens, hamsters, and more! Check out our instagram @barksandrecct highlight "Our Team" to see what's a days like for a team member!
