Important Note

Evening work is an important part of our client service — ensuring pets are fed, walked, and comforted before bedtime. You’ll often be the last friendly face they see before their humans return or before an overnight sitter takes over. This role requires punctuality, a calm demeanor, and attention to detail to ensure every pet ends their day feeling safe and cared for.

If you have consistent weekday evening availability and meet all our criteria above, we’d love to have you join our Hands N Paws team!
