Buckhead Pet Pals has been caring for Atlanta's pets since 1998. We're looking for reliable people who love dogs and cats, live in or near Buckhead, and want to join our team of sitters. This is a great fit for retirees, students, parents with school-day hours, and anyone who would rather spend the day outside with dogs than at a desk. 🐾

• Plus tips (you keep 100%) and time-and-a-half on major holidays!

Example: Once your schedule builds, 6 midday walks a day, Monday–Friday, is about $330 a week before tips.

What the job looks like

• Visit clients' homes to walk, feed, play with, and care for their dogs and cats
• Follow each client's care notes. Some pets need medication, litter scooping for cats, or extra attention.
• Send a quick/fun update and photo/video through our app after every visit
• Walk in all kinds of weather. On extreme-heat days we shorten walks and spend the extra time indoors with the pets.

Why our sitters stay

• You set your availability. Our office handles scheduling, billing, and client questions, so you can focus on the pets.
• Visits stay close to home. We match you with clients near where you live.
• Steady work from a trusted local company with 28 years in Atlanta
• Get paid to stay active. You won't need a gym membership.

What you'll need

• A reliable car and a valid driver's license
• A smartphone with a data plan
• Comfort handling dogs of all sizes, cats, or both
• Willingness to complete a background check
• Pet experience is a plus. Professional pet-care experience is not required.

Applying takes about 3 minutes, and no resume is needed.
