Pros

I’ve been extremely happy since joining the Barkly Pets team. In particular, some of the many reasons that attribute to that happiness are: - Your teammates trust you. I’ve never had an issue with someone micro-managing me, or dismissing my ideas. - Everyone is open to collaboration. If you need help on something, or need an extra set of eyes - someone is always willing to jump in and do what they can to help. - You have so much room to grow. If you see an area that the company needs help in, you are totally welcome to tackle it. If you want to learn new skills or gain new experiences, everyone is very encouraging of this. All in all, the Barkly Pets team is extremely flexible, caring and genuine. It’s really been a pleasure to work with them so far.

Cons

I can't think of any downsides specific to working here.

Pros

-Walker support is always quick & helpful and they’re always supportive when I need help or have to cancel walks -Extreme flexibility in that I can create my own schedule completely: I’m able to choose the dogs I walk, the areas I walk in, and the times & days I’m available -Management/founders are constantly asking for feedback from walkers and rolling out surveys prior to making big changes.. they REALLY make me feel as though they are taking their walkers into consideration with every big change they make -They make constant efforts to try to really have an open line of communication between walkers and management -The dogs & kitties (obviously the best part) -I always get regular walks in no matter how busy my life is -CONSISTENTLY the best walker rates out of all the dog walking apps -Opportunities for walkers to move up in the company and/or become brand ambassadors

Cons

Hard to think of cons for Barkly but technically you are taking a risk anytime you meet someone new, dog or person, so in that respect you always have to take caution when taking on a new client. Of course, this situation applies to any meeting between an independent contractor and a new client and is NOT unique to Barkly in any way.
