Overview:
Close to Home Pet Services is an LGBTQAI-owned and operated company. We connect customers with our animal-obsessed team to provide their pets with unique, individual care. We have been providing individual dog walks and cat visits in Seattle since 2008. We’re currently looking to hire a responsible animal lover to join our professional team!
Below are the basic qualities CTH Team members support and possess:
Reliability: We will be there when we say we will.

Dog Walking Route Details: We have immediate openings for WEST SEATTLE Weekday dog walkers. These positions work well for someone looking for part-time work, 2-5 hours a day. All Close to Home Dog clients are human-friendly and vetted for staff. All walks are private leashed walks in their neighborhood. Some dog walks are more than one dog if they live together.
We are hiring hourly starting at $19.97 per hour + average Mileage + Tips.
Job Summary:
This is a physical job designed for true dog lovers. You will be walking independently and tasked with keeping clients’ pets safe and following any instructions provided by the client. Ideal routes are normally within one neighborhood, but you will need to travel to multiple households during the day and provide your own transportation. We place great emphasis on safety, customer service, and self-reliance. Most walkers work an equivalent of 20-30 hours a week, but you can take on as many or as few service requests or clients as you choose. Our walkers find the flexibility that our company provides to be an ideal way to stay independent and balance other jobs, clients, or school with the freedom of self-employment.
Responsibilities and Duties:
• Perform safe neighborhood walks on leash as directed by the client
• Time management and communication to accept/deny service requests
• Communicate with the office and clients within our select software platforms (we will train you on this!)
• Provide excellent customer service
• Give all dogs attention, exercise, and care
Who You Are:
• You are honest, driven, self-motivated, and independent
• You have a smartphone with a data plan
• You are at least 18 years old
• You own a reliable source of transportation such as an insured car
• You enjoy spending the day outdoors in all types of weather
• You are legally authorized to work in the United States
• You are willing to submit to a background check
• You have another form of income to help supplement this position
Preferred Qualifications:
• Knowledge of dog breeds and behavior can be helpful but not required
• The ability to make quick decisions to keep dogs and yourself safe
• Capable of walking more than one dog at a time
• Comfortable walking dogs with special medical or behavior concerns
• Time management skills to ensure on-time arrivals for all dog walks
• Experience communicating with others via Slack
Benefits and Perks:
• Highly competitive industry pay
• Paid Onboarding and Training
• Casual dress code (dress for the weather instead of wearing a uniform)
• Work within a fun environment that encourages learning with positive/animal-loving co-workers
• Work at a company that respects you as an individual and creates healthy boundaries
What our team says about the company:
‘Close To Home has been an amazing place for me after leaving a high-stress job. Being outside, exercising, and connecting with animals is the perfect antidote for career burnout and has helped tremendously with my depression and anxiety. Plus, the miles I’m walking have conditioned me enough so I can do all the hikes that seemed out of reach previously.’
