What are the responsibilities and job description for the After Hours Supervisor/Pet Sitter & Dog Walker – Rotating Weekends position at Floofins & Co.?
Floofins & Co. is a professional pet sitting and dog walking company headquartered in Elmhurst IL and servicing the surrounding Western Suburbs. We're growing and we're looking for an experienced pet care professional to join our team in a supervisory capacity, covering after-hours client care and field operations.
This isn't an entry-level role. We're looking for someone who already knows what professional pet care looks like and is ready to help lead a team of sitters and walkers from behind the scenes.
About The Role
The After Hours Supervisor is responsible for client care and field management during non-business hours. You'll work mostly from home (or anywhere within our service area), handling client communications, monitoring staff in the field, and stepping in to help when situations require it. Think of it as a mix of remote coordination and occasional field work with the autonomy to manage your own time between check-ins. Shift rotations are Friday night through Sunday night with opportunities for additional shifts as well as field work.
What You'll Be Doing
We're a values-driven company that takes care of our team. You'll be stepping into a role with real responsibility, flexible remote work, and a team that genuinely loves what they do.
