Job Description

To be considered, apply on our website. Search "DFW Pet Sitting" and go to the Jobs page. Applications sent through this site are not reviewed. DFW Pet Sitting Services is hiring sitters who live in or right next to the
Park Cities:
Highland Park, University Park, and the Turtle Creek area. We've served North Texas since 2003 with about 200 W-2 sitters and 8,000 client families, and our clients here want a sitter who lives nearby and shows up at the same time every day. What the visits are 25 minutes in the client's home. Feed, refresh water, litter or potty break, meds if the pet takes them, a walk when it's part of the routine, and the rest of the time with the animals. Dogs and cats. Some of these homes are houses with yards, some are condos and apartments along Turtle Creek. How it works You get offered each client individually by text: address, dates, times, pets. Yes or no. If you say yes, you meet them in person first (paid), and from then on they're your client. Every future booking from that household comes to you. Need time off? Tell us. We find the backup and the client stays yours. What we need from you Availability mornings, middays, and evenings, without working all three every day. Midday is where we're thinnest and where consistency matters most to these clients. A car, a phone that can text and send photos, and a fairly settled life, because the sitter who keeps showing up is the one clients ask for. Pay $12.50 per 25-minute visit, which is $25 an hour of visit time. That's the floor for one or two pets within 5 miles. Most households have more pets than that, so a typical visit runs $12.50 to about $16, and medication, extra miles, holidays, and same-day requests are added on top. W-2, taxes withheld, company liability insurance, no upfront costs. How to apply To be considered, apply on our website. Search "DFW Pet Sitting" and go to the Jobs page.
