Job Description

Are you the kind of person who can’t walk past a dog without saying hello? Do you find joy in getting outside, staying active, and making someone’s day a little brighter—especially if that someone has four legs and a wagging tail?

If you’re ready for a part-time gig that’s fulfilling, flexible, and fun—we want to meet you.

Join Our Incredible Team at Barks & Recreation
We’re a local pet care company with a heart-centered team culture. We look out for each other, we love what we do, and we’re looking for someone who shares our values: kindness, dependability, a sense of humor, and a deep love for animals.

Why It’s a Great Fit for You (Yes, YOU):
✅ You enjoy staying active and love being outside
✅ You miss having a daily routine, but don’t want the grind of a full-time job
✅ You thrive in a role where you're appreciated, trusted, and part of a community
✅ You want to spend your time doing something meaningful and joyful

What the Job Looks Like:

  • Visiting pets in their homes or taking them for adventures on local trails

  • Walking and caring for dogs and other pets between the hours of 9 AM–4 PM

  • Building sweet relationships with pets and their owners

  • Working independently while being part of a supportive team

The Nitty Gritty:
📅 Must have at least 3 days of availability (2 weekdays minimum) with 4+ consecutive hours between 9–4.  
🚗 Must have a reliable, insured, dog-friendly vehicle
📱 Must have a smartphone with internet, camera, and GPS

No professional pet care experience? No problem.
We provide thorough training so you’ll feel confident, capable, and ready to go.

Compensation & Perks:
💰 $16.35/hour + tips (average $3–7/hour)
🌟 Paid mileage, retirement plan, flexible schedule, and team support
🐶 Employee discounts for your own pets
🏆 Skill-building and opportunities to grow in our small business

Background check, reference check, and driving record review required.

Ready to bring more wagging tails and fresh air into your life?
Apply now and join a team where people and pets are happy to see you. 💛🐾
