Dog Walker​/Pet Sitter

We're looking for local animal lovers to join our team!

Glad Wags is a locally owned and operated professional pet care company in Lakewood Ranch, Florida.

If you're a morning person and enjoy walking, we have many four-legged clients who would love to join you! Cancel your gym membership and enjoy a new furry workout partner that will exercise with you with a smile on their face every day.

We care for dogs of all sizes and breeds with varying activity levels. Our sitters enjoy not only walks with the pups, but indoor playtime, yard play, and even pool time when requested by their pawrents. Along with outdoor time, our furry friends often enjoy additional one-on-one time with their sitter for extra cuddles and a nice brushing, as well. In turn, you'll receive loads of luv 'n licks!

Our employees enjoy a work culture that promotes mutual respect, compassion for all animals, and kindness and patience towards our clients and their pets. We enjoy a casual working environment and thoroughly enjoy the solitude of walking a dog or petting a cat. To be in their presence, soaking up their amazing energy makes this the best job ever!

Our sitters come from all walks of life, from scientists to social workers. This is an ideal position if you’re looking for supplemental income. We invite college students, stay-at-home moms, retirees, vet techs, kennel techs, or any active person with a genuine love for all animals to pursue this rewarding and fun pet care opportunity.
