Join Our Team as a Pet Care Provider!

Are you a dedicated animal caretaker in the Piedmont Triad of NC area looking to build a fulfilling career? Fur Babies Pet Sitting is seeking passionate individuals to join our team as independent contractors. Enjoy the opportunity to have your own personalized webpage, tailored service list, and full support to grow a pet sitting career!

This position begins as part-time (1-20 clients), with the potential for the Pet Care Provider to transition to full-time (20-35 clients).

At Fur Babies Pet Sitting by Mikayla, LLC; we value growth and comfort. You’ll have the freedom to create your own schedule, set your service offerings, and benefit from our support and marketing efforts. Independent contractors are empowered to grow their income, reputation, and client base while benefiting from the company’s support and resources. Success is built on the contractor’s entrepreneurial drive, combined with FBPS’s guidance, to establish themselves as trusted, skilled, and reliable pet care professionals in their community.

Our mission is to ensure ultimate comfort and peace of mind for pets and their owners. As an Independent Pet Sitting Contractor, you’re responsible for the mental and physical well-being of the pets in your care. You set your own schedule, prices, and services while benefiting from Fur Babies Pet Sitting’s reputation, client base, marketing, business development, and insurance coverage. Comprehensive pet care insurance protects both contractors and clients. FBPS enhances contractors’ visibility through a professional website and social media branding, but personal efforts to promote services amplify success. Tools like Precise Pet Care simplify scheduling, client communication, and reporting. We’re here to support local pet care professionals while creating a strong, personalized support system for pets and families in our community. FBPS provides leads to contractors, but true long-term success comes from harnessing those leads and completing the jobs.

• Offering exceptional service and fostering positive client relationships.

• Revenue Reporting: Submit monthly revenue reports by the 7th (if not using the provided software). If you are using the company software, it is done automatically.

• Schedule Management: Actively secure bookings to maintain a steady workflow.

FBPS offers a range of learning experiences to ensure contractors feel confident and prepared:

• Zoom Meetings: Covering essential topics like pet care best practices and client communication.
