JOB TITLE: Pet PAL

SUMMARY: Pet PALs provide a wide range of services for owners of a variety of animals, but are primarily dogs and cats. Positions can be either part time or full time. It's the perfect permanent part time position with potential for growth and also great for someone looking to supplement their current income. The best candidates are those with open availability. Our busiest time of day is between 11am-2pm. We also have several visits in the early morning and evening.

Pet PALs may be required to feed, medicate, and give water to animals under their care while keeping their living space and bowls clean. They are expected to pick up after any animal they care for (litter box cleaning and pooper scooping). They are required to watch the animals closely to ensure they are in good health and are required to exercise animals, which may include high-energy dog walks of up to one hour per visit. They are required to keep records on the animal's health, feedings, behaviors and medications and must be able to articulate in a pet care journal that will be sent to client immediately following each visit. They must be detail oriented, problem solving individuals who can easily follow written instructions and who can express themselves in a clear and concise manner both verbally and in their writing.

You should be highly motivated and able to self manage, be cheerful, positive, enthusiastic, and have a genuine passion for the care of animals. You must have a very high level of customer service and act responsibly while being patient and tolerant when administering care. Since our sitters work in private homes, discretion and respect for the privacy of others is required. Sitters must conduct themselves in a professional manner, possess the ability to write engaging pet care journals using proper grammar and good spelling and, most of all, you must be flexible. You also be able to take constructive criticism in a positive and professional way.

All Employees are required to pass a reference and background check, a drug screen, and must be over the age of 20 and have a valid driver's license as well as a Smartphone or Tablet with data plan.

Pet PALs must have a working knowledge of the Internet, be comfortable learning new web-based programs, have a Smartphone or Tablet with data plan, be able to access and respond to emails at least twice a day (once in the morning and again in the evening), and be generally responsive.
