Job Description

You’ve spent years putting everyone else first. Now your kids are more independent, and you're looking for something for you —something fun, flexible, and fulfilling that fits into your life (not the other way around).

This Job is Built for You If:
✅ You want a flexible schedule that still lets you be there for your family
✅ You’re ready for something that brings joy, movement, and meaning to your day
✅ You love dogs, sunshine, and feeling like part of a supportive team
✅ You want the option to grow and take on more down the line—but no pressure

Why Barks & Recreation?
We’re more than just a pet care company—we’re a community of animal lovers, working moms, outdoor adventurers, and kind humans who value communication, support, and flexibility. We’ve built a business where your life comes first—and your work can grow as you do.

  • Dog walks, trail adventures, and pet sitting visits in Southeastern CT

  • You’ll work independently, but with tons of team support

  • Must have at least 3 days of availability (including 2 weekdays), between 9 AM–4 PM

  • Must have 4 consecutive hours available on each working day

The Perks:
💰 $16.95/hr + tips (average $3–9/hr)
🌿 Flexible schedule designed around your real life
🚗 Paid mileage + employee pet care discounts
💬 A positive, understanding team that has your back
🌟 Retirement plan + career development opportunities
📈 Room to grow: If you're interested, there’s opportunity in HR, social media, client communication, marketing, community events, and more

Requirements:
📅 3+ days of availability (2 weekdays minimum)
📱 A smartphone with GPS, internet, and camera
🚗 A reliable, insured, dog-friendly vehicle
🎓 No pet care experience required—we’ll train you up with confidence!
