Description
Overnight Pet Sitter Service Area:
Mars, Cranberry Township, Wexford, Warrendale, Marshall Township, Seven Fields, and nearby North Hills communities North Hills Pet Care is a young and growing local company providing professional dog walking and pet sitting services in clients' homes throughout Pittsburgh's North Hills. We are hiring a dependable Overnight Pet Sitter who can reliably accept multiple nights in a row, including reservations that span both weekdays and weekends. Longer trips may be divided between sitters when needed, but applicants who are generally available for only occasional single nights are unlikely to be a good fit. We are actively building our local client base, so this is a flexible, part time opportunity best suited for someone looking for supplemental income rather than guaranteed full time hours. Overnight assignments generally run from approximately 8 PM to 7 AM, although exact arrival and departure times depend on each client's care plan. Position Details

Completing reasonable household care tasks included in the client's instructions Scheduling Expectations Before accepting an assignment, sitters may review the dates, location, pets, and general care requirements. Once a sitter accepts specific nights, those nights become firm work commitments. Reliability is especially important because clients are traveling and depend on their assigned sitter to arrive and provide care as scheduled.
