Leti:
Working for Puget Sound Pets has been nothing short of amazing! As a busy college student, with a varying workload from quarter to quarter, it has been so awesome to have a job that gives me control of my schedule. The company has been very accommodating each time my class schedule shifts, and works hard to make sure that I still have walks and opportunities to make more money, such as taking an extra overnight for a pet! I have never worked somewhere before that makes such an effort to build me a schedule that works for ME, and not just them. Communication is encouraged and executed, and concerns are always met with a productive solution. Tory and Jason make the interests, safety, and needs of their staff a priority, and have made it clear through every interaction that they care about their walkers and sitters. This is a great company to be a part of, and offers a work experience unparalleled by others I’ve had; it’s a rewarding and fun job, both because of the lovely pets you’ll get to meet, as well as the excellent bosses you’ll work with.
Ky:
The owners have been incredible as well. Nothing makes or breaks a job more than who you work for. I've never had an issue asking for time off, they have always made sure my client list was full, and anytime there was an issue they were quick to help. They are both very kind people, and I always feel like they have my back. If you're thinking about working for Puget Sound Pets because you love animals, do it. Whether it is something short term while you're in school, or you're looking for more long term work, it is a wonderful experience you'll never forget.
Jenn:
I love love love my job at Puget Sound Pets. Not only, do I get to spend my days with amazing animals, I work for a company that actually does what they say and treats me with respect and dignity. Anytime there is a concern about a situation, client, or pet, the owner’s deal with the issue swiftly and fairly. I’ve never worked for a company that wants to hear about what’s not working and that will take the steps to fix the problem and make my life better. I’ve never had a time off request declined, my needs are treated like a priority and I’m constantly told my thoughts and opinions matter- every day I’m asked by the owners if there is anything THEY can do to support ME! It’s amazing how those simple acts make this such a wonderful place to work.
Eileen:
I appreciate working for Puget Sound Pets because it allows me to enjoy the company of dogs and to bond with the dogs on my route. I love walking and enjoy working at a job where I get plenty of exercise!
Rebecca:
I love providing personalized care for dogs and cats -- something I can do with Puget Sound Pets. Befriending and cultivating an individual relationship with an animal is a wholeheartedly rewarding experience.
Bob:
Walking for Puget Sound Pets refocused me. The business is one of the most trusted in the Pacific Northwest. It bonded me with many new dogs. Walks are very calming and relaxing. We are intent on having a good, safe time as we explore their neighborhoods. In all these years, I’ve never had a dog that wasn’t important. There are moments before, during and after a walk where you can talk with a dog. They know they can trust you and others.
Lowen:
I like working for Puget Pets because it allows a flexible schedule and I get to be paid to spend time with dogs.
