Sitter Hound is growing and looking to expand its team. We are looking for dog-loving people with varying levels of experience to be drop-off dog sitters in your own home and stay@home sitters in the dog's home.

 

Compensation

We offer a compensation with the sitters receiving a generous direct portion of each service fee. Depending on how often you choose to dog sit, you can earn a significant supplemental income. We provide you with as many bookings that you can accommodate, select dogs that match up with what you can provide, handle the initial set up and then you work directly with the dog's people to make the specific arrangements.

 

Careful Selection Process

Each Sitter Hound sitter is personally interviewed and carefully background-checked. We're eager to meet with you and share the exciting and fulfilling job of caring for dogs as part of our Sitter Hound pack. Please follow the link to fill out and form and we'll review your experience and schedule a time to meet.

 

Protection

Sitter Hound is insured and bonded with insurance especially created to protect our sitters and their families, as well as, our clients' pets and property.

 

Accessible Leadership

Sitter Hound owners, Jack and Ann Mayer Eisen, are available for questions and emergency backup if the need should arise. You are never alone in solving behavior, medical and other issues. Jack and Ann are just a phone call away if you need help.

 

Proudly St. Louis

To serve our community best, we are looking for people in many areas of St. Louis and St. Louis County. Having sitters in different areas is an important aspect of keeping Sitter Hound accessible and local. Clients love having a sitter who lives nearby, making it easier to drop off and pick up their dogs and easier for stay@home sitters to be near their homes.

 

Who can be a Sitter Hound Team Member?

Experienced dog lovers who are dedicated to making dogs comfortable and happy make great Sitter Hound team members. Dog sitting fits well into several different lifestyles.

 

Anyone with flexible schedules who wish to work part-time or want to supplement another part-time job or college classes make great dog sitters.

​

Drop-off sitting is ideal for people who work from home, retirees and stay-at-home parents of older kids because dogs love the companionship of someone just being home a lot and available to them as needed. Having a fenced yard is wonderful but not required if sitters are able to walk the dogs.

 

College and grad students as well as remote workers and gap-year students are a great fit for our stay@home sitters. You get a break from living with others to be alone in the sole company of dogs. Sitters need not be home all day but should have some daytime flexibility and are expected to sleep at the dog's home through the night.
