• Join Our Pack: Waggin' & Waddlin' Application

  • Hi there, and thank you for your interest in joining Waggin' & Waddlin'!

    We care for our clients' pets the way we'd want someone to care for our own: one-on-one, never pack style, with positive, fear-free handling. Clients trust our team members with their pets and their homes, so we take hiring seriously and read every application personally.

    We currently have two different roles: a part-time Dog Walker role focused on midday weekdays, and a contractor-based Overnight Sitter role where you choose your own assignments. Tell us which one interests you and we'll show you the questions for that role. It takes about 10 minutes.
