We recently went through an ownership/management change in 2025. We strive to be the most professional and knowledgeable pet care team in the PNW. That team is crafted from wonderful and dedicated people who have a passion for animals that exceeds the norm. We are deeply loving, ultra-communicative, supportive, forward-thinking, detail-oriented, open-minded, and safety driven individuals who have banded together to build a terrific team to care for clients' fur-children. 
Frolic Pet Services is currently hiring Part-Time Dog Walkers &amp; Pet Sitters in various neighborhoods from North Seattle, Downtown, West Seattle, South Seattle, Des Moines, Kent, Auburn to NE Tacoma.
Frolic Pet Services is a locally-owned professional pet care company providing various services to clients in the Puget Sound region since 2008. Our team is composed of life-long animal lovers who are deeply dedicated to the well-being of the pets entrusted to their care. Most of our staff have been working with us for 5+ years! We are seeking dedicated do-good-humans to join our team to provide high quality pet sitting and dog walking services to our long list of beloved pets.
Our company structure is different from the others - we believe in having W2 employees, not 1099 independent contractors, so that we can offer our staff support, provide expert education, and have stable schedules, among many other benefits. This allows us to focus on our core values to provide clients reliability, consistency, and a professional level of care and safety. If you have a passion for pets, a keen eye for detail, and enjoy a physically active work-life balanced with puppy bellies - Apply now!
