Bellbird Park, Australia Happy Hounds Dog Walking and Pet Sitting Full time

Happy Hounds is growing our awesome team of Dog Walkers and Pet Sitters If you’re a go-getter who loves the outdoors, enjoys being active at work, likes exploring new neighbourhoods and of course, loves everything related to animals, we’d love to hear from you.

Before you apply, please note that although our furry clients are definitely adorable, this role is more than just playing with puppies all day. As Pet Minders, we must be resourceful, reliable, safety-minded and responsible with the pets and homes under our care. Every day is a new adventure with new challenges, but this is the kind of work where you see the positive difference you make in the lives of your clients on a daily basis, and get rewarded with big fluffy hugs We are ideally also looking for new team members who are capable of handling large breed dogs.

This is a sub-contractor position (super included). Please note that the job is not limited to this area. We service most areas of Brisbane and the Gold Coast, so you don't have to be situated in the suburb listed above.

DESCRIPTION
- Dog Walking: 30 to 60 minute dog walks in the dog’s neighbourhood, the beach or the park. Up to two dogs maximum.
- Pet Sitting: Daily 25 to 60 minute visits to the client’s homes to care for their dogs, cats or small animals.
- House Sitting - Overnight stays in client’s homes for one or multiple nights. This is a must and something you must be comfortable doing.

PERKS
- Flexible schedule - weekdays and weekends
- Well-suited to either casual, part-time or full-time hours (ideally minimum 7 hours per week)
- Exclusive company discounts on services and pet products
- Join a fun community of amazing pet lovers like you
- The best furry colleagues

**REQUIREMENTS**:
