What are the responsibilities and job description for the Professional Pet Sitter – Flexible Schedule | Dog Walking & In-Home Pet Care position at VIPET SITTER SERVICE, LLC?
Love Animals? Looking for Flexible Work That Fits Your Life?
For over 25 years, VIPet Sitter Service has helped pets stay safe, happy, and comfortable in their own homes while their families travel. We are looking for dependable, compassionate animal lovers to provide professional in-home pet care as independent contractors.
If you've ever wished you could spend part of your day caring for pets instead of sitting behind a desk, this may be the perfect opportunity.
A Flexible Opportunity
This is not a traditional 9-to-5 position. Our clients need care before work, after work, on weekends, holidays, and during school breaks. Because of that, you'll enjoy the flexibility to build your availability around your own life.
You set your availability, and you accept assignments that fit your schedule.
Whether you're looking to supplement your income, work around another job, or simply earn money doing something you enjoy, this opportunity offers meaningful work with flexible scheduling.
What You'll Do
As an independent contractor providing professional pet care services, you'll visit clients' homes to provide loving care while they're away. Visits may include:
- Feeding pets and providing fresh water
- Walking dogs
- Cleaning litter boxes and picking up waste
- Administering medications when requested
- Bringing in mail or packages
- Watering plants
- Sending visit updates and photos through our mobile app
- Giving pets the love, attention, and companionship they deserve
Every visit helps pets remain relaxed and comfortable in the place they know best—their own home.
We're Looking for Professionals Who...
- Truly love animals and enjoy spending time with them.
- Are dependable, honest, and professional.
- Have excellent communication skills.
- Have reliable transportation and a valid driver's license.
- Are comfortable using a smartphone for scheduling and visit reports.
- Enjoy working independently and managing their own schedule.
- Can commit to the availability they provide.
- Understand that pet care often takes place early mornings, evenings, weekends, holidays, and school breaks—the times when clients travel most.
Assignments vary based on client travel schedules, so this opportunity is ideal for someone who appreciates flexibility and enjoys supplementing their income while doing meaningful work.
