JOIN THE PACK, MAKE A DIFFERENCE, HAVE FUN.
Walk Your Dog With Love is a small yet rapidly growing Lanesboro MA manufacturer, marketing and philanthropic company. We make The World's Best Dog Harnesses & Dog Gear. Our dog harness makes walking any dog a pleasure.
We are a Mission Based Manufacturer. In this country we put down between 5-8 million strays a year. Most dogs are abandoned because they are "hard to handle". Our harness can change that; it makes dogs easier to handle.
The environment and dress code is casual. It's the quality of the work that is important.
Covid note: Every employee has their own completely separate work environment, and the facility is big enough to have more than any recommendations for social distancing during training. We maintain ‘restaurant level’ cleaning, i.e., wiping down of all surfaces and masking in the off chance two people are in the same room. Who wants to even catch a cold – that sucks too.
We are presently looking for help in these following departments:
- Shipping/Packing/Inventory
- Production/Sewing Machine Operator
- Independent Show Sales, any location
- Freelance project work

FREELANCE PROJECT WORK (Open. Your location)
We have so many project going on, you might fit one of them! And many projects turn into full time jobs. Some employees started with us as ‘generalists’ , doing this and that, and then suddenly they created a job. Others came on to do specific projects, and then they ended up staying and working on another project, and another, and another… We are open to the possibilities with the right person.
Most projects are communication and organization driven, so tell us your skill set and we will see where you might fit in. Are you a good Writer? Illustrator? Handy with Photoshop? Know video editing? Great at PowerPoint? Great on the phone? A good organizer? Have some experience with Google ad words? Know your way around Facebook advertising? Love dogs and just want to help?
Sure, it would be great to be pretty good at most of these thing, as many projects require a Jack or Jill of All Trades who can create something out of almost nothing, and then help it grow. Yet Heart and Smart Thinking are the most important 'skills' we need. For sure, most of these projects require independent work so you must be self-motivated and willing to work with minimal supervision.
What kind of projects do we have? Starting up and running our Affiliate Marketing program. Helping our Rescue/Shelter outreach. Developing a Publicity program. Running our consumer and wholesale email marketing outreach. Developing our wholesale channel marketing communications. Overseeing our international online marketing strategy. Running our online Google ad words and other Google opportunities, Running our Social Media campaigns. And on and on.

We are looking for independent people who can sell our great products at fairs, festivals, pet expos, crafts shows, home shows, beer festivals, flower shows, RV shows, holiday marts, corporate fairs, etc.
Most every weekend there is a fair of some sort happening someplace, and that is a great place to set up a tent and sell The World’s Best Dog Harness. There are also tons of longer fairs that last from 7-21 days that this is perfect for. This is how we started our business and it is an exciting opportunity to become part of Walk Your Dog With Love, creating your own schedule and earning your own income. The opportunities are endless.
This is a perfect ‘gig’ for a person with no experience who is willing to learn (we will teach you) or an old hand at “the fair circuit’ who wants a great product that nearly sells itself.
This is an outside sales job, where you will be your own boss; you will essentially setting up your own business – with help and guidance from us. So you must be highly motivated, love dogs, have your own car and be willing to travel and work weekends and meet and greet new people (and often their dogs) all day long.
