Description
Sometimes a job can be more than a jobβ¦
It can be journey, freedom, and love.
At NYC Doggies we are always looking for people to join our adventures; in this job dogs are your colleagues, the forest is your office, and the trails are your gym.
Are you a good fit for the job?
Writers, artists, and those working from home find that this job gives them a much-needed opportunity to connect with nature, escape from the city, and earn some supplemental income.
Are you qualified?
β Most importantly, you must love dogs and ideally have had some experience working with or caring for them.
β You must be active - three hours on the trail in any weather on rugged terrain should be your idea of fun.
β You will be driving throughout the city, so we will expect a clean driving record and lots of experience behind the wheel.
βWe will also be checking your references - youβll have furry family members in your care, and you must have prior employers who can attest to your responsibility and trustworthiness.
What, exactly, does a dog hiker do?
Our hikers earn $170/hike for a 6-7 hour day, from around 8:30 AM until around 2:30 PM. It consists of picking up 4 friendly dogs, driving to a reservation outside of the city, hiking for 3 hours, and then bringing them back home. We provide the car, GPS tracking collars, orientation to the hiking location, and any other gear or supplies needed.
