Pet Sitter (Overnight & Live-in Care)

Join the Pet Care for You Oxford Team!

At Pet Care for You Oxford, we believe pets are happiest when they can stay in the comfort of their own home while their owners are away. We’re looking for a reliable, compassionate and professional Pet Sitter to join our growing team and provide exceptional overnight care for our clients’ beloved pets.

If you have a genuine passion for animal welfare and are looking for flexible, rewarding work with an established and supportive business, we’d love to hear from you.

About the Role

As a Pet Sitter, you’ll stay overnight in clients’ homes, providing attentive, loving care while maintaining each pet’s normal daily routine. Our goal is to make every pet feel safe, relaxed and cared for in their own familiar environment.

Assignments range from one-night stays through to two-week bookings, depending on the client’s needs.

You’ll care for a variety of animals including:

Dogs
Cats
Rabbits
Guinea pigs
Birds
Other small household pets

Your responsibilities may include:

Feeding and fresh water
Dog walking (where required)
Administering medication (if appropriate)
Playtime and enrichment
Providing companionship throughout the day
Keeping the home clean and tidy
Sending daily photo and message updates to owners
Following detailed care instructions and maintaining each pet’s routine

Many of our dogs are used to having company throughout the day, so this role is ideally suited to someone who works remotely, studies from home, or has a flexible part-time schedule that allows them to spend the majority of the day with the pets.

What We’re Looking For

We’re looking for someone who is:

Passionate about animal care and welfare
Experienced caring for both dogs and cats
Calm, patient and compassionate
Honest, reliable and highly trustworthy
Comfortable staying overnight in clients’ homes
Able to work independently and use good judgement
Organised with excellent attention to detail
A confident communicator with both clients and the office team
Happy to follow detailed care plans exactly
Physically fit enough for dog walking in all weather
Holds a full UK driving licence and has access to their own vehicle
Willing to undergo a DBS check

Previous professional pet care experience is an advantage but is not essential for the right candidate with excellent animal handling skills and a genuine love of pets.

What We Offer

Flexible work that fits around your existing commitments
Competitive pay per completed booking
The opportunity to accept as many or as few bookings as you’d like
Full induction and Pet Sitting training
Pet First Aid training
Ongoing mentoring and support
The chance to join a friendly, experienced and growing team
Opportunities to expand into dog walking, puppy visits, cat visits and other pet care services as the business grows
