SalaryIf you love dogs and cats & spending time outdoors, then this is the perfect job for you. Working at Pet Nanny is a great fit for people who love spending time with animals, have time and flexibility, are active and happy, and want a rewarding day-to-day experience at work. At Pet Nanny, we treat pets like family. We are a premier pet care company that is expanding and excited to offer more dog walking and Pet sitting services on The Main Line of Philadelphia.
We are in the “peace of mind” business. We provide peace of mind to the pet parents who are either traveling or working. We visit our clients’ homes to care for their pets and & also their homes, taking dogs for walks around the neighborhood or trails, letting them out to play in the backyard, scooping litter boxes, occasionally providing medications, and a lot of TLC & belly rubs. We ask that you drive to these appointments and use our mobile app to provide photos and updates to the clients to let them know how the pets are doing. For traveling clients, you may be asked to water plants and collect the mail as well.
We are looking for part-time staff who have trustworthy & hands-on experience caring for pets, who are willing to travel within our service area, commit to a minimum of 6 months of employment, pass a background check, complete training, & are available to work during shifts based on our clients’ needs and your schedule.
Our busy times are weekends and holidays. Of course, you must be willing to treat furry clients like they are like your own. Some of the many advantages of working for us include lots of room to increase your hours, flexible schedules, streamlined communication from your phone: and a relaxed work environment (e.g., shorts, jeans, etc.). Education is important to us, and we offer continuing education opportunities to help you succeed with your clients. With us, you are an employee, not a contractor, so you are fully protected by our liability insurance, our bonding, and worker’s compensation insurance. We want you to be protected and secure when out in the field working for us.
We have the following requirements:
-You need to live in The Main Line area and be able to drive to clients daily. You will not need to be driving around the greater Philadelphia area.

-You will need to be able to walk dogs in all kinds of weather conditions (within reason): rain, heat, & cold. We do have restrictions and safety measures for extreme weather for both the safety of you and the pets.
