🐾 PART TIME VACANCY 🐾
We are looking for a part time person to support Eve and myself, caring for our customers' cats to a high standard.
It would be on an ad hoc basis depending on how busy we are. We are extremely busy when the kids are off school, and it slows down when they go back, but then our customers without children go away; there are rarely any days without some bookings. Weekends are always busier than during the week.
Eve and I rarely have time off so it would be nice to try to create a work/life balance; after 19 years running Katz at Home I'm not getting any younger! and I'd like to be able to step back a bit at times.
We are looking for someone extremely trustworthy and reliable, who is committed to providing the best possible care for the cats they visit. It is quite a physical job, but there is more to it than just filling a bowl and cleaning out a litter tray; a strong level of common sense is required and the ability to handle any unexpected situations if they crop up. Our customers' homes are under our care whilst they are away and must remain secure at all times, so confidence dealing with various alarm systems and security cameras is needed. Teamwork is essential as Eve and I hand over to each other constantly so we are always up to date with each individual job.
A love for, and general knowledge of, cats is obviously needed, but full training will be given regarding cat behaviour and how to notice that something may be wrong. Not all cats are soppy lapcats and being able to work with our more feisty customers is a necessity, though you would always have backup at all times, either in person or on the phone.
This job is best suited to someone who has an income already that they are looking to boost, as the level of income earned will change each week. The hours would mostly be in the afternoons from 4pm onwards, but flexibility to occasionally do some morning visits when needed would be appreciated.
In return you get to spend time with some beautiful cats of all different colours and sizes; I think we have practically every breed on our books. 🐈⬛🐈
