Position Overview & Specifications
We are looking for loyal and passionate people to join the team.
Must have full clean UK drivers license and own vehicle. That vehicle will be used to transport dogs to and from walks, and I am willing to subsidise crates and equipment in order to make your vehicle safe for the dogs to travel.
The hours are currently in flux, but there are plenty of options. There are potential openings for small group and solo dog walkers, as well as larger group walkers. We have work for every day of the week available, including occasional weekends. We are keen to hire people who have the flexibility to provide overnight house sitting availability over holidays, summer and throughout the year.
Please provide your availability when applying, Eg hours between 9-3, Monday-Weds only, all days and hours but no overnights, etc
Any experience is a plus, but training will be provided. We are passionate about our work and so any external training we can get you to complete will be subsidised, and we welcome people who are looking to improve themselves, advance and become an integral and vital part of the team.
As mentioned there are potential subsidies and bonuses available. Fuel subsidies are currently being considered, so please enquire at telephone interview stage for a more ready answer. At the present wages are at £11 per hour walk, plus additional fee for every extra dog walked during that time. For example a 5 Dog walk would earn £11, plus an additional £6 per additional dog, making a fee of £35 for an hour walk.
