  • Provide love, attention, and professional care

  • Document visits and updates via our app

  • Grow into new roles and areas if interested—admin, marketing, training, social media, and more!

What You’ll Need:

  • Availability at least 3 days/week (including 2 weekdays), with a 4+ hour block between 9AM–4PM

  • A reliable, insured, pet-friendly car

  • Smartphone with camera, GPS, and internet access

  • Paid mileage, flexible schedule, retirement savings

  • Employee pet care discounts + real on-the-job learning

  • Growth potential in ALL areas of small biz—HR, admin, marketing, training, and beyond
