Full job description

Pet Sitter & Dog Walker – South Cambridge & Saffron Walden Area

Location: South Cambridge & Surrounding Towns

Job Type: Self-Employed, Part-Time, Flexible

About Us

The Cambridge Catsitter is a premium pet sitting and dog walking service covering Cambridge and nearby towns. As the sister company to The Stamford Catsitter (which has grown to serve over 2,000 clients in just six years), we’re expanding fast.

Our team is passionate, friendly, and reliable - providing high-quality care for pets while their owners are away. If you’re an animal lover who enjoys the company of cats, dogs, and other small pets, this could be the perfect role. Expect unlimited cuddles, head boops, and wagging tails - but also a professional, rewarding responsibility.

We manage all bookings and communication via an easy-to-use app, and stay connected through our team WhatsApp group for support and quick updates.

The Role

As a Pet Sitter & Dog Walker, you will:

Visit clients’ homes to care for cats, dogs, and small pets
Feed, clean, play, and keep them company
Walk dogs (solo walks only - no pack walks)
Follow each pet’s care routine and home instructions carefully
Send detailed photo updates after every visit
Manage your own schedule via our portal
Handle client keys securely and professionally

Visits can be morning, afternoon, evening, and weekends - flexibility is key.

Workload increases over school holidays and Christmas, so availability during these periods is essential.

Pay & Perks

From £11 for a 30-minute visit, £15 for a 1-hour visit, and up to £130 for 24-hour live-in care
Double pay on key holiday dates (Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, Boxing Day, New Year’s Eve, New Year’s Day, Easter Monday)
Flexible hours – you choose your bookings
Mileage contribution for visits outside your service area
Team WhatsApp chat and to be a part of a pet loving community
Team insurance via PetPlan Petsitters
A Cambridge Catsitter T-shirt to wear on visits

What We’re Looking For

Over 18 and based near South Cambridge or the villages south of Cambridge
Holds a full driving licence and access to a car
Happy to register as self-employed
Able to pass (or already has) a DBS check
Reliable, trustworthy, and good at communication
Confident using a smartphone app and taking good pet photos
Comfortable managing your own time and commitments

Experience with animals is ideal (personal or professional), but most important is genuine love for pets and a responsible attitude.

Join Our Team

This role is best suited to those not relying on it as a sole income stream at first; to fit around other work or study, with visits before/after work or at weekends. You’ll be part of a warm, supportive team — and get to spend your days with Cambridgeshire’s most adorable residents.

If you’re dependable, caring, and available to help through the busy summer season and beyond, we’d love to hear from you!

Job Types: Full-time, Part-time, Freelance

Pay: From £15.00 per hour

Application question(s):

Do you understand that this is a self-employed role and that there is no guarantee of weekly work at first, bookings will be ad-hoc and provided to you as they come in (increasing as your client base builds)?
Due to the areas we are currently looking to strengthen, applicants must live in SOUTH Cambridge/Cambridgeshire, Saffron Walden or Royston area to be considered for this role. This includes areas such as Trumpington, Grantchester, Great Shelford, Little Shelford, Sawston, Whittlesford, Stapleford, Duxford, Harston, Shepreth etc. Please tell us whereabouts you live, including your town, village or postcode where possible?
