Weekend Pet Sitter & Dog Walker – Hands N Paws

Hands N Paws is looking for dependable, animal-loving pros to join our weekend pet care team ! If spending your Saturdays and Sundays with wagging tails, happy purrs, and being trusted to care for pets in their homes sounds like your perfect weekend, we’d love to meet you. This is year-round work — not seasonal or short-term.

ONLY APPLY IF YOU CAN:

✓ Work most Saturdays & Sundays year-round (generally 8 AM–10 PM)
✓ Service all areas within I-270 (no city restrictions): Bexley, Central, UA, Dublin, etc.
✓ Maintain reliable transportation plus a backup plan
✓ Pass a background check
✓ Commit to professional standards of care for every pet

Core Responsibilities:

Follow Custom Care Plans – Provide feeding, meds, and activities exactly as instructed.
Arrive On Time – Keep pets on schedule for meals, walks, and potty breaks.
Ensure Safety – Secure leashes, gates, and monitor each pet’s health.
Provide Updates – Send real-time photos and notes through our app after each visit.
Earn Trust – Treat pets and homes respectfully, reporting concerns promptly.

Must-Have Qualifications:

Valid License & Insured Vehicle (plus backup transport)
Clean Background Check (pass screening/references)
Smartphone Skills (comfortable with scheduling & documenting visits)
Physical Readiness (walk dogs, lift pets, handle energetic animals)

Compensation:

Weekend team members are paid 50% base commission on all pet services completed. Rates include:
💲 $12 (20-min visit) | $13.50 (30-min visit) | $20 (45-min visit) | $26 (60-min visit)

Earning Boosts:
✓ $3–5 for multi-pet households
✓ $10 for same-day requests
✓ $15 for holidays
✓ 100% of tips (often $5–$20+)

Biweekly payroll via direct deposit.

Important Note:

Weekend pet care is active, fast-paced, and hands-on. You’ll often handle 4–6+ visits per day, follow precise care routines, manage active dogs, and document every detail of a pet’s wellbeing — rain or shine . Reliability, stamina, and attention to detail are key to keeping pets safe, happy, and healthy while their humans are away.

Ready to Apply?
If you have consistent weekend availability and meet all our criteria above, we’d love to have you join the Hands N Paws team!
