What you'll be part of:

At OnePet, we’re obsessed with pets (seriously… it’s in our name). We run a family of brands — Honest Paws, CertaPet, and TotalVet — that help pet parents find the best products, services, and advice online. Think of us as the cool big sibling of the pet world: we’re here to guide, share, and have some fun while doing it.

We’re on the hunt for a Social Media Intern who lives and breathes content. If your camera roll is 90% pets or memes, if you know the latest TikTok trend before it hits the “For You” page, and if you’ve got a knack for making people stop scrolling — this gig’s for you.

Here’s what your day-to-day might look like:

• Post and schedule content across Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, LinkedIn, and X/Twitter.
• Come up with fun, scroll-stopping ideas that feel on-trend and on-brand.
• Help create photos, videos, and graphics (don’t worry, you’ll have support from our creative team).
• Jump into comments and DMs to keep the conversation going.
• Keep an eye on what’s trending — from pet memes to viral sounds — and bring those ideas to the table.
• Track what’s working (and what’s not) so we can grow smarter.
• Join in on campaigns, giveaways, and maybe even influencer collabs.

What we’re looking for:

• A strong social media presence — doesn’t have to be professional, even your personal accounts count (drop us your handles when you apply).
• A love for pets (bonus points if your dog or cat is a natural influencer).
• Creative ideas and the confidence to share them.
• Good vibes: you’re organized, reliable, and up for learning.
• Familiarity with platforms + tools like Canva, Adobe Suite, or TikTok editing is a plus, but not required.

What’s in it for you:

• Real experience running social for multiple brands.
• Mentorship from marketers who’ve been around the block (and the algorithm).
• A chance to flex your creativity and grow your portfolio.
• Work that’s actually fun — because, well… pets.
