Office Support Substitute

TAILored Pet Services LLC • Everett, WA

21d • $1,000 - $2,200 • Onsite

About The Position

Four-Legged Fun Zone is building a small pool of Office Support Substitutes for self-employed professionals who want a flexible, paid change of scenery a few days a month. Substitutes bring their laptop and perform their usual income-producing work at the facility while remaining available to pause that work and assist the team when needed. Candidates choose at least one weekday as their designated substitute day. Shifts are not guaranteed; when backup is needed, the facility typically contacts substitutes the evening before about working from 9:00 AM to 2:00 PM. Substitutes are expected to accept shifts when coverage is needed on their designated day to remain active in the pool.

This is not a traditional part-time job and is not intended to develop into a regular part-time or full-time schedule. Hours are not guaranteed. Work may involve direct interaction with clients and dogs, and substitutes may need to put away their laptop while providing coverage. The substitute's own work must be flexible enough to pause immediately and remain paused if coverage takes longer than expected.

Requirements

• Have an established business, freelance or contract work, online business, or other self-employed income-producing work normally performed from home.
• Have at least one position, business, or ongoing professional commitment held for 12 or more consecutive months since 2023.
• Have at least one year of experience in a fast-paced, customer-facing role.
• Live within a 15-minute drive of 6628 Evergreen Way.
• Be comfortable around dogs of every size, including dogs weighing more than 150 pounds, and with barking, slobber, dog hair, muddy paws, and an active pet facility.
• Be able to stand, walk, bend, crouch, move x-pens, and safely assist with dogs, including very large dogs.
• Have strong communication and follow-through, and be reliable after accepting a shift.
• Be able to pass a federal background check.
• Wear comfortable, durable clothing and closed-toe shoes.
• Be able to pause personal work immediately when a client, dog, groomer, or daycare team member needs assistance, and keep it paused as needed.
• Be available to accept shifts when coverage is needed on the designated substitute day in order to remain active in the substitute pool.

Responsibilities

• Welcome clients, assist with basic check-ins and checkouts, and provide front-desk coverage.
• Provide coverage for daycare staff breaks, actively supervise dogs, and help safely move dogs between rooms and play areas.
• Supervise grooming dogs waiting for pickup, bring dogs to their owners at checkout, and assist groomers by holding or steadying dogs.
• Set up or take down x-pens, help with Dream Den transitions, and assist with light cleaning and other basic facility tasks.
• Pause personal work and assist the team when coverage is needed.

Benefits

• Pay of $18 per hour, or $90 for a full 9:00 AM–2:00 PM substitute shift.
• Opportunity to work on one's own business at the facility during shifts when coverage is not needed.
