What are PT Dogs?

PT Dogs, or Physical Therapy Dogs, are specially trained canines that assist physical therapists in helping patients recover from injuries, surgeries, or disabilities. They provide motivation, increase patient engagement, and can help with mobility exercises or emotional support during rehabilitation sessions. These dogs are usually certified therapy animals and work alongside licensed physical therapists in clinics, hospitals, or rehabilitation centers.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a Physical Therapist (PT) for dogs, and why are they important?

To thrive as a canine Physical Therapist, you need expertise in animal anatomy, rehabilitation techniques, and a relevant degree or certification in veterinary physical therapy. Familiarity with tools such as therapeutic ultrasound, laser therapy devices, and hydrotherapy systems is typically required. Patience, strong observational skills, and effective communication with pet owners and veterinary teams are valuable soft skills. These skills ensure the safe, effective rehabilitation of canine patients and foster collaboration for optimal recovery outcomes.

How to make money if you love dogs?

As a pet dog handler or dog walker, you can earn money by caring for dogs, offering walking, training, or grooming services. Building a client base, obtaining relevant certifications, and working in a flexible environment can help increase income in this field.

203 Pet Service is one of Fairfield County's best-reviewed dog-walking and pet-sitting companies in business since 2004.
  • Employees of 203 Pet Service are compensated $12 per visit plus fuel compensation and tips when applicable, per standard visit which is 20 to 30 minutes long-more for extended visits. Earning potential is based on your availability and willingness to take on appointments. Some employees make over $500 per week.
  • Get paid to walk and be outside while lovin' on furry friends.
  • Paid employee training includes a Pet CPR & First Aid Certification Course.
  • Flexible hours to fit your schedule, with most dog walking appointments being between 10 am to 3 pm
  • We are a small family business, and we treat employees like family.
  • We are looking for self-motivated people who can complete appointments independently. We don't micromanage.
  • And best of all, daily doses of doggie joy!

We need dog walkers and pet sitters in:
  • Stratford
  • Fairfield
  • Westport
  • Weston
  • Easton
  • Southport
  • Black Rock
  • Bridgeport

Some of our most successful team members have included:
Experienced Dog Walkers - Stay at Home Parents - Vet Techs - Vet Tech Students - Active Retirees - Freelancers - Artists - Professional Musicians - Book authors/writers - Dog Trainers - FORMER Wag and Rover walkers looking to become employees, not independent contractors.
This job appeals to people from ALL walks of life. As long as you have a pet-loving heart.
Here is what we ask you to do:
Between the hours of 10 am to 4 pm, you will walk up to 1- 3 dogs at once, privately. We don't "pack walk" with multiple families. You could be responsible for checking on dogs, cats, and sometimes other small 'pocket/ caged pets' in their homes, feeding them, loving them, scooping cat litter, and ensuring their health and wellness are in 'purrfect' shape while they are in your care! We require regular updates to the office and our pet parents via our app, so communication skills are critical! All employees must have a valid driver's license and a reliable, insured vehicle.
You will be entered into our onboarding process upon completing your job application. You will be sent an email outlining further instructions in the hiring process. If you don't reply to that email within 48 hours, we will not be able to move forward with your application.
This job requires you to play with puppies and kittens, too! Most of our staff would say it's the best job they've ever had!
How Much Can I Make?
Some of our walkers are happy making $50-$100 weekly. Others make well over $500 a week. We do payroll weekly by direct deposit. Ultimately it's up to your availability and willingness to take on assignments.
We also get a lot of pet-sitting requests from clients who are away and don't want to kennel their pets. Typically, dog pet sit visits are 3-4 visits a day, and cat sits are 1, sometimes 2 visits daily. Pet sits occur on weekdays, weekends, and holidays. Generally, pet sit visits are performed during the following time windows:
Mornings 7 am - 9:30 am
Afternoons 1 pm - 4 pm
Dinner Time 3 pm - 6 pm
Bedtime 8:30 pm - 11:30 pm
Pet sits are a great way to boost your income.
Some basic job requirements
US citizens or legally authorized to work in the US for at least the next 12 months. Over 18 years of age. Able to pass a background check and drug test. A local full-time resident of Stratford, Fairfield, Westport, Weston, Easton, Southport, Black Rock, or Bridgeport. Able to receive payment "on the books" (sorry, we do not pay "under the table"). Able to commit to this position for 12 months from date of hire. Available FT or PT. Dog walking between 10 am and 3 pm, weekdays. Pet-sitting as described above. All employees will be expected to work some nights, weekends, and holidays.
Apply today! Most of our staff have been with us for 5 or more years and report that this is the "best job ever".
