You need to file one tax return. You will enter the W-2 you receive from your full time employment. You will also need to enter the income you earned as a pet sitter as self-employment income (reported on Form 1040 Schedule C). You can deduct any expenses that you incurred that relate to pet sitting on the Schedule C.
You will need either the TurboTax Self-Employed (online) or Home & Business (CD/download) version to enter self-employment income.
