Job Description
Now Hiring Pet Sitters & Dog Walkers in Houston!
Join the Adelle’s Pet Services Pack
Part Time or Full Time
Independent Contractor Position
Do you love animals and want a job that brings you joy every single day? At Adelle’s Pet Services, we believe pets are family—and we’re looking for reliable, caring, and energetic animal lovers to join our growing team!
While full-time opportunities are possible, please note that it takes time to build the necessary client base. Many of our team members will begin part-time and grow into full-time as demand increases.
As a bonded and insured company, we provide trusted care to Houston’s pets and peace of mind to their owners. Now we want YOU to be part of our mission!
Why You’ll Love Working With Us
✔️ Flexible schedule – work around life’s commitments or dive in full-time and see the rewards grow with every happy client and pet
✔️ Competitive pay per job – higher than typical hourly rates, plus tips are 100% yours
✔️ Active, rewarding work – spend your day walking dogs, caring for pets, and getting exercise
✔️ Growth opportunities – very high potential to expand to full-time as demand increase
✔️ Make a difference – every wagging tail and purring cat will thank you
What You’ll Be Doing
Walking dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments (rain or shine!)
Providing in-home pet sitting (feeding, water, playtime, litter cleaning, cuddles, meds if needed) – yes, you literally get paid to cuddle pets, even while you sleep!
Light household tasks like bringing in mail, watering plants, or rotating lights
Sending fun “pup-dates” with photos to keep pet parents in the loop
Respecting client property and ensuring pets are safe and happy
What We’re Looking For
- Must be 18+ with a reliable car and valid driver’s license
- Comfortable with dogs, cats, and pets of all sizes
- Dependable, trustworthy, and able to work independently (this is an Independent Contractor role)
- A smartphone for visit updates and client communication
- Physically fit for walking in Houston’s heat and weather
- Prior pet care experience is a plus and highly recommended
- A 1-year commitment is preferred — we’re looking for dedicated animal lovers who want to grow with us
- Highly preferable to live in the Houston area (close enough to respond quickly when a fur-friend needs you!)
Compensation
Paid per visit/walk at higher than competitive rates (starting at $14 per visit or $31 per hour, plus all tips go directly to you!)
Fun, active work you’ll actually enjoy doing
Flexible part-time with the opportunity to expand
We especially need coverage for midday, morning/evening, weekends, and holidays — a great way to fill your schedule (and maybe sneak a few extra holiday cookies too)
Depending on demand, you can expect to start with 2–8 visits per day, with occasional pet sitting opportunities — and we’re growing fast, which means more chances for you to shine!
