Pet Sitter

Join Our Pet-Loving Team!

At Happy Tails, we've been spreading joy to pet owners in Columbus for a decade. We are always looking for pet lover to join our team to provide some TLC to our furry friends!

Why You'll Love Working with Us:

• Flexibility: Are you someone who values a schedule that suits your lifestyle? Look no further! At Happy Tails, you're in control of your hours. Work when you want and choose your own schedule from our online job board.
• Variety: Job locations and schedules are diverse, so you'll get to experience different homes and pets, keeping things interesting.

Services & Role Needs:

Around-The-Clock Care: Imagine providing a loving, homely environment for pets, just like their owners would. As a Happy Tails team member, you'll stay in the client's home, following their daily routine and ensuring their pets receive the best care. This role is perfect for those who want to provide a hands-on experience, especially for anxious dogs, senior dogs, or clients who prefer a sitter staycation. Plus, there's the opportunity to earn extra for homes with more than 2 pets. The sitter can expect to be in the clients home during the day and spending the night. Of course, you can leave for personal obligations, following our policy to not be away from the home longer than 3 hours/outing, and 6 hours maximum/day.

$60/day +additional pet fees, tips and holiday pay

Overnight Care: If you're not into around-the-clock care but still want to make a difference, our overnight pet sitting is the answer. You'll stay in the client's home from 8 pm to 8 am, ensuring their pets are safe and sound. You can even add daytime drop-by visits if scheduling is available.

$30/night +optional drop in visits ($12/30min), tips, holiday pay

Drop-By Dog & Cat Visits: We currently have openings exclusively for our Around The Clock care team, but if hired, you'll have the opportunity to handle all services offered by Happy Tails, including Overnight Care and drop-by visits. We're on the lookout for dedicated individuals to provide exceptional care for dogs and cats in the New Albany, Westerville, Worthington, Dublin, and Hilliard areas. Our comprehensive services encompass dog walking, cat visits, feeding, medication administration, and home care tasks like mail collection and plant watering. Visits can vary from brief 5-minute check-ins to hour-long sessions. If you're passionate about pets and are open to traveling to these locations, we'd love to have you join our team. Don't hesitate – apply today and become part of a team committed to ensuring pets are content and homes are well-maintained!
