Active Paws is hiring!

Active Paws Inc. has 2 openings to join our team of professional dog walkers. We are unable to take on new clients without new staff! Pet sitting and work in our holistic pet supply store can serve as extra income. One position is open immediately, the other will be for April 2014

We have been in business for over 10 years and have been featured in the Boston Herald, Daily News Tribune, Bolton Common and won the highest industry award of Pet Sitter of the Year. We are an ever-expanding company providing multiple pet care services to Watertown, Belmont, and Waltham. We are looking for people that are fun, motivated, professional, durable (able to weather the elements), able to manage your time well, love animals and people. This is a fun job where you get paid to care and love other people's pets.

If the adjectives above describe you and you have;
