Growing Small Business Needs Backup Dog Walkers in SE Calgary!
Message From The Owner
- We're a small, growing pet sitting operation here in Calgary, and we are completely overwhelmed with the volume of requests we've gotten since Christmas.
- We really need professional, experienced help to handle some recurring walks and drop-in visits for our clients in the Auburn Bay/Cranston areas.
- We're primarily looking for people available during the core working hours of 10 AM to 3 PM on weekdays, which is when we get the biggest rush; you must be comfortable handling large-breed dogs, as we have a lot of labs and shepherds in our roster.
- We pride ourselves on structured walks and sending detailed reports to our clients.
- You'd be covering various tasks like 30-minute individual dog walks, 15-minute cat check-ins, and sometimes administering minor oral medications to dogs with anxiety.
- Quality expectations are very high – we require you to wipe the dogs' paws thoroughly after every walk, especially in the cold Calgary winter when there is salt on the sidewalks.
- We provide all the necessary waste bags and leashes, and training on our specific app for logging walk routes and photos will be provided.
- Price is negotiable, but we typically pay an hourly rate for coverage.
- We have specific standard operating procedures, which includes:
-
- Checking that all gates are double-locked after entering and leaving the yard.
- Ensuring water bowls are refreshed and food is pre-measured and set out.
- Wiping down any muddy paws or bellies before leaving the home.
- We appreciate your interest and look forward to hearing from dedicated people!
