Dog Sitter Jobs & Vacancies
As a dog sitter, you’ll need to provide daily care for pets while owners are away. These pets will typically stay in the home of the owner, so that they are in familiar surroundings. You’ll need to look after them at their home, and you may also need to provide basic services as part of your job, such as collecting mail or vacuuming pet hair.
Many pet sitters also offer dog walking services, as needed by clients. Some sitters may hire additional staff members to help out with the work load, especially as customers increase. However, you may also be hired in your personal capacity on a permanent basis.

Pet sitters are responsible for notifying owners and taking pets to the vet if they should become sick or suffer an injury while under their care.
