- Willingness to care for pets at our space in Bushwick (if not possible in your home) and at clients’ homes, including overnight stays for multi-day bookings.
- Previous experience caring for animals (personal or professional).
- Responsible, empathetic, and passionate about animals.
- Strong communication and customer service skills.
- Flexible availability, especially on weekends and holidays.
