The Pet Sitter position is for am/pm and can be afternoon visits for dogs. The hours are typically between 7-10 am, 1-3 pm and 6-9 pm. Cat visits are typically one time a day and may be flexible on times.

The visit time duration is either 30 or 60 minutes. These are vacation visits so most jobs last anywhere from 3 days to 3 weeks. All Staff are flexible part time.

Visits for cats include scooping litter daily and changing the litter entirely after a week, feeding and loving the kitties, giving fresh water daily, bringing in the mail and newspaper, and watering a small number of plants.
