Job description

Love animals? Prefer paws over people? Want to get paid to make tails wag? WE NEED YOU!

Imagine starting your morning with puppy kisses, kitty cuddles, happy tail wags, and the kind of coworkers who never schedule unnecessary meetings. Welcome to pet sitting with Preferred Pet Sitter LLC, where your office has four legs, your clients are ridiculously cute, and your workday actually makes a difference!

We're looking for animal lovers to join our team and bring a little extra joy to the lives of dogs, cats, and pocket pets while their humans are away. You'll visit pets in the comfort of their own homes, give them the love and care they deserve, and head home knowing you made somebody's very important day a whole lot better.

THE PERKS (YES, IT REALLY IS THIS CUTE!)

• The early bird gets the puppy kisses! Our primary shift is weekday mornings from 7–9 AM. Get your pet fix in before the rest of the world has even finished its coffee!
• YOU'RE THE BOSS OF YOUR SCHEDULE! Enjoy flexibility and the freedom to work around your life, not the other way around. Hours vary by season, so this is a great opportunity for supplemental income.
• Your coworkers are the BEST. Expect enthusiastic greetings, happy purrs, wiggly butts, and absolutely zero office drama. (Well, except the occasional cat who thinks you're beneath them.)
• Get paid to spread the love! Earn supplemental income while making a real difference, plus enjoy tips from our wonderful clientele.
• Stay close to home! We serve the Southwest Twin Cities metro, including Savage, Prior Lake, West Burnsville, and East Shakopee. Less time driving, more time loving on pets!
• Introverts, WE SEE YOU! Prefer furry friends to small talk? This job offers minimal human interaction and maximum animal appreciation. Finally, a job where 'meeting new people' means meeting new dogs.
• Feel GOOD about your work. You're not just filling a shift. You're helping pets feel safe, loved, and cared for while their favorite humans are away.

WHO WOULD LOVE THIS JOB?

Honestly? Anyone who has ever stopped mid-conversation to point out a dog.

You might be a perfect fit if you're a stay-at-home parent looking for flexible income, a college student squeezing work between classes, a retiree who wants to stay active, a seasonal worker looking for something extra, or simply an animal-obsessed human who wants a little more joy in their everyday life.

If your camera roll is 90% pet photos, we should probably talk.
