Pet Sitter

Company Description Kelaviv is Israel's dedicated pet care marketplace, connecting pet owners with verified, trusted local sitters for services such as dog boarding, daycare, walking, and drop-in visits. The platform focuses on secure booking, transparent pricing, and real-time updates, helping owners feel confident while their pets are cared for. Every sitter is thoroughly vetted and reviewed, ensuring pets receive safe, loving, and reliable care. Kelaviv supports both Hebrew and English users and gives sitters the opportunity to turn their love for animals into flexible, self-directed income as independent contractors — not employees. The company is growing a community where every pet can find a "second family" when their owners are away.

Role Description This is an independent contractor opportunity on the Kelaviv platform — not an employee position. Pet Sitters are self-employed (registered as osek patur) and choose which bookings to accept, set their own rates, and build their own client base through Kelaviv. Sitters provide care such as feeding, walking, playtime, basic grooming, and monitoring pets' overall well-being, and may offer services like in-home pet sitting, overnight stays, or house sitting duties such as bringing in mail, watering plants, and keeping the home tidy. Sitters communicate directly with pet owners through messages, photos, and updates on the Kelaviv platform, following each pet's specific care instructions and safety protocols, and manage their own bookings, schedule, and service details through the online system — on their own time, at their own pace.
