Join our Award-Winning Crew
We are looking for energetic and trustworthy dog lovers to join our team. We're an award winning team, so we only ask the best of the best to join us. Many of the walkers in Philly are hired as “independent contractors” by national technology corporations trying to cash in on the "gig economy." When joining our crew you become a valued employee (with consistent weekday scheduling, job security, Paid Time Off, workers comp coverage, etc) for a family owned business, based in South Philly.
We're looking for folks who want to enter (or continue on in) the professional pet care field. Looking for stability while doing something you love? You're in the right place. We have both full and part time weekday positions available.
