We Love Making Pets Smile

Totally Tails Pet Care Services regularly searches for responsible, detail-oriented and professional individuals who are compassionate toward animals. We want people who share our pet care philosophy and honestly have a genuine love for all pets. It’s a paw-some job and you’ll often pinch yourself thinking, “I can’t believe I’m getting paid to do this!”

***This job is perfect for Retirees, College Students, 2nd job, Stay Home Moms, etc.

Our Basics:

Arrive: Show up on time. Attention to the Details: Follow the client’s instructions to a tee. Stay: No short changing a client’s time. You must stay the full length of your visit. Scribble: Leave a detailed note of your visit. Send: Take cute pictures to send to your client.


Our Necessities:

Flexibility: Our schedules are different from day to day and come with last minute requests and cancellations. Some days will be busier than others. Meticulous: When caring for client pets it requires you to pay close attention to detail. Clients give us lots of instructions to follow and there is no room for error. Strong Stomach: We see it all and clean up after everything. If you have an aversion to dealing with waste, vomit or removal of half eaten rodents then this isn’t a job for you. Fitness: Our furry friends need lots of exercise and play time. We get down on the floor to play, walk up and down lots of stairs and hills and we do it in every type of weather. Dog walkers should also be able to handle two large dogs on a walk. Patience: We care for a lot of senior pets and pets with special needs. We may need to assist an elderly pet in getting off a couch or down the stairs, administer medication or just sit and read or snuggle with them.


Our Minimum Requirements:

Experience: Working with animals, either professionally or as a rescue volunteer is a plus. Maturity: You must be 19+ years of age. Equipment: You must own a reliable, insured vehicle,  a smart phone (and versed in how to use), and a computer (internet), Schedule: You must be Flexible, and available for times that you indicate you can work. Providing overnight stays is a plus!!! We do pet sitting 24/7=365, working times can include nights, weekends, holidays, & early mornings…
