Subject: Pet Sitting Position

Hello Good day. My name is Caroline and I was advised by a Dean to use this medium to pass a job opening for the position of a Dog sitter for my Uncle. My Uncle is moving in to town with his family and needs the services of a Pet Sitter to help take care of their dogs. He is willing to pay $350 weekly. If you know any staff or student who might be interested in this position, kindly have them email Peter via REDACTED

Best regards,
Caroline
