Job Description

Ready to swap spreadsheets for slobbery kisses?

If you're fresh out of college, living the stay-at-home parent life, or in between jobs and craving something fun, active, and meaningful—this might be your perfect transitional role. At Barks & Recreation , we don’t just walk dogs—we build trust, create joy, and give pets their best lives (and help their humans breathe easier while we do it).

Whether you’re figuring out your next big move or testing the waters of the workforce, this part-time job offers flexibility, skill-building, and plenty of fresh air—and yes, lots of tail wags.

Join Our Pet-Loving Crew

We’re a growing, local pet care company rooted in compassion, connection, and community. We’re looking for someone who’s:

  • Naturally obsessed with animals

  • ‍♀️ Ready to juggle a flexible schedule while staying active

  • Communicative, organized, and a good team player

What You’ll Do:

  • Walk and care for dogs (and some cats!) 

  • Visit pets at home or head out for trail adventures

  • Provide love, attention, and professional care

  • Document visits and updates via our app

  • Grow into new roles and areas if interested—admin, marketing, training, social media, and more!

What You’ll Need:

  • Availability at least 3 days/week (including 2 weekdays), with a 4+ hour block between 9AM–4PM

  • A reliable, insured, pet-friendly car

  • Smartphone with camera, GPS, and internet access

  • A 6–12+ month commitment (we invest in you and want you to grow with us!)

Pay & Perks:

  • $16.95/hr + tips (average $3–9/hr)

  • Paid mileage, flexible schedule, retirement savings

  • Employee pet care discounts + real on-the-job learning

  • Growth potential in ALL areas of small biz—HR, admin, marketing, training, and beyond

No experience in pet care? No problem—we’ll train you up! If you’re dependable, animal-obsessed, and a good communicator, we can teach you the rest.

Come grow your resume (and your heart) at Barks & Recreation. Apply today.
