Why Pet Sitting Is An Awesome Part Time Job

We are currently looking to hire and thought we’d take a moment to share the good, the bad and the ugly when it comes to pet sitting as a part time job.
The great things about being a pet sitter are:

• The schedule changes daily so it’s rarely boring.
• You can do your grocery shopping at 10am on a Tuesday when no one else is in the store.
• You can schedule a doctor’s appointment without having to worry about scheduling time off from work.
• You can take a nap during the day.
• You are almost always greeted by wiggly, happy pets.
• Pets don’t care if you’re wearing makeup or not.
• You can do morning visits in your pajamas.
• Walking dogs is like being paid to exercise.
• You get paid to play with pets!
• The job is very independent. No one is looking over your shoulder at every moment (unless the client has a camera).
• You’re not stuck in a cubicle or behind a desk all day.
• You get lots of kisses that won’t get you in trouble with your significant other.
• It’s great for self employed or retired people since the hours are so different than a regular job.

Of course there is always a flip side to everything. Pet sitting isn’t all rainbows and unicorns. It’s hard work.

What are the negatives of being a pet sitter?

• The early morning/late night schedule can be a drag sometimes.
• There is a LOT of driving involved (back & forth to clients homes)
• Saying goodbye to pets that pass away is hard because you get attached.
• Walking in the middle of a blizzard or rainstorm is no fun.
• Driving in a blizzard or rainstorm is no fun either.
• Cleaning up diarrhea or vomit. (Need I say more?)
• Depending on how long a client is gone you may have to work more than seven days in a row.
• You’ll probably get peed on at some point.
• Walking in extreme heat can be challenging.
• You have to work holidays (but you get extra pay per visit and sometimes clients leave you really nice gifts).
• There is no paid time off.
• Cannot bring your kids, friends, relatives or animals to the job with you - NO EXCEPTIONS!!!

Now that you know the ins and outs of what a pet sitting job really entails, do you know someone that would make a great pet sitter? Send them our way, we are hiring.
