Urban Tailz is looking for an animal lover with availability on some days Mon-Fri 10:30am to 3:30pm. We are looking for a fill-in dog walker who can take over our regular walkers' route a day or two a week when a walker needs the day off. There may be some travel to get to the specific dog walking route, but once you're there the route is spaced close together. We can also keep you in certain areas of the city if you don't want to travel too far.
Requirements:
- Must be an animal nut! We love people who are crazy for animals. The type who stop every stranger on the street just to say hi to their dogs.
- Must be available some days Mon-Fri 10:30am to 3:30pm.
- Must have a bike or car to get around. The dogs are spaced close together, but we don’t want you wasting time walking from one dog to the next.
- Must be a good communicator. Clients want to know you love and care for their dog, and the best way to show that is with good communication.
About Us:
Urban Tailz has been providing dog walks to most neighborhoods in Chicago since 2000. We think our walkers are the face of the company so we believe happy walkers make for a great company! There is also room for growth and raises are given after 6 months with Urban Tailz (earlier if we think you're doing a great job!). All of UT's managers were once just regular dog walkers.
We run background checks on all of our new walkers. Our walkers start at 45% of what we charge our clients with room for growth.
Our walkers make $14-$17 per hour which translates to around $45-$60 per day, but we also like to cater to our walkers so we can make you super busy if you'd like to make more money, or we can give you a smaller route with just a few dogs a day if you're just looking to break up your day by playing with some dogs.
