If you are just looking for a pay check, no need to apply
If you are expect this position to support you financially
While we do have many busy times during the year (holidays, prime vacation times, etc.) that allow for
a full schedule, working as a professional pet sitter isn't the type of job that can guarantee a minimum
number of hours per week. Our positions fit best for applicants who do not need to rely on the income
for living expenses, but do have enough flexibility to take on a full schedule when needed.
Because of the need for consistency in care for our clients and their pets, we seek applicants who are
looking for long term, part time employment.
If you think this job will be a breeze and you don't have to "work hard"
Think again! There are going to be days that pets get sick, have accidents, won't "play nice" and just
plain want to give you a run for your money! Some will bite, scratch and just won't listen when you call.
Some will want to play hide and seek and you have to find them! Some will try and escape the second
you open the door, some do and the chase is on! Some won't want their medication and some won't
eat when its time You will get slobbered on, step in poop from time to time, work in the coldest of
weather, you'll get rained on (might be the weather, might not be). But if you can get through all that
and leave with a smile on your face, you just might be a Pet Sitter! If you can't, don't apply.
If you are looking for "temporary" work
We do not offer temporary, summer or holiday only positions. We believe that best way to serve our
clients is to provide consistent care to their pets by providing a familiar caregiver for their service
request. So we seek only those who can commit long term.
If you don't have a very high standards of integrity or morals
If you make a mistake and blame others and/or don't own it, DO NOT APPLY!
If you take constructive criticism as an attacked/get your feelings hurt easily, DO NOT APPLY!
If you think a lie is OK, DO NOT APPLY!
If you think you don't have to keep your word, DO NOT APPLY!
If you do drugs, DO NOT APPLY!
These position are based on 100% trust. Our clients expect it, HPC Pet Sitters demands it!
A Little About HPC Pet Sitters LLC
|
We started up in the 2005 but took our time taking on a first client (almost a year or longer). We wanted to start out
slow and learn as much as we could about the industry. We read books on the subject, checked out websites,
joined several predominate Pet Sitting organizations (Professional United Pet Sitters, Pet Sitters International, aPaw),
joined discussion forums and picked the brains of some of the top Pet Sitters in the industry from not only across the
country but from around the world. Most of whom have been in business for over 10 years or better and are rated
top in their area. Once the foundation was laid so we customized their plans to fit our customers we serve.
We set the bar high, we didn't want to be considered a "hobby sitter". We wanted to get our name and reputation
out as a Professional Pet Sitter. Then in November of 2006 we registered with the State of Florida and became
Hooves, Paws & Claws Professional Pet Sitters, LLC, and we built the reputation for not only being a Professional
Pet Sitter but a company that has a serving heart and caring nature when it comes to the needs of our clients!
We are a faith based company and believe that we are successful because we have placed God as our foundation.
As part of His teachings we believe that the only way we can grow is by having high standards, morals and operate
with integrity. Those aren't words we just throw around, we mean them and act on them daily. We believe that trust is
the number one concern of our clients; after all they are letting us into their homes to care for their "family member",
their pets. We strive to provide nothing but the best service possible and we do that by following His word and the
Golden Rule. We remain transparent and honest with our clients, if we make a mistake we own it and do all we can
to correct it!
If this sounds like an environment you would like to work in, you have strong work ethics and you have a serving
heart, we look forward to hearing from you!
