Job Description - Summer Job Pet Sitter - Southbury/Oxford Area


RCO Pet Care is growing (again!), and we are looking for a very particular type of human to join our team of dog walkers and pet sitters.

This is a great fit for someone who loves animals, is trustworthy, independent, and would genuinely enjoy spending part of their summer caring for pets.

The role is part-time (typically around 10–20 hours/week) and includes:
🐶 Dog walks + pet sitting visits
🚗 Mileage reimbursement
📚 Paid training
📱 Cute pet photo updates + client communication

 

Here’s the deal:

  • We're looking for someone so reliable their Google Calendar trusts them.
  • Someone who genuinely loves animals and appreciates that professional pet care is a real job with real responsibility.
  • Someone who can follow detailed instructions, send the world’s cutest pet photo updates, and doesn’t flinch when a client’s chihuahua wakes up and chooses chaos.

RCO is special. Our clients trust us with their furry family members, and our team takes that seriously while still having a blast together.

The criteria (non-negotiable):

  • MUST have reliable transportation and be able to consistently service clients in Oxford, Southbury, Woodbury and nearby towns
    (This role requires frequent travel between client homes during daytime hours.)
  • MUST have regular weekday daytime availability
    Midday (10am–3pm) is our busiest time.
  • MUST be available one weeknight AND Saturday or Sunday
  • MUST be trustworthy, communicative, and detail-oriented
    Our clients depend on accurate updates and consistent routines.
  • MUST be comfortable working independently while also being part of a supportive, drama-free team

Bonus points if you:

  • Love sending photo updates as much as clients love receiving them
  • Can handle both a 95-lb loveable goofball and a 6-lb chaos gremlin
  • Are the type of person who triple-checks they locked the door (we see you and we appreciate you)

We hope you're excited! Due to high volumes of phone calls, we ask that applicants do not call us asking about applying for the position. If it is posted here, we are accepting applications. We cannot process anything via phone call - it must be done through our listing.
