I’m a Psychology major with years of hands-on childcare experience and a true love for working with kids. I’ve worked as a summer camp supervisor (2019–2023) and as an after-school counselor at the YMCA, gaining valuable skills in creating safe, fun, and structured environments. As the oldest of four siblings and with 11 cousins on my mom’s side, I’ve always been the go-to caregiver in my family, which has given me lifelong experience and a natural comfort around children of all ages. I’m hardworking, patient, and understanding—I know kids will be kids, and I approach every situation with care and flexibility. I truly enjoy helping children learn, grow, and just be themselves.

Top 10 Tips For Hiring A Dog Walker

Follow these handy tips for hiring a dog walker so you know your pup is in safe, reliable hands.

1. Check experience

Look for walkers who have worked with dogs of similar size, breed, and temperament.

2. Verify credentials

Ask about pet first aid/CPR certification and whether they’re insured and bonded.

3. Request references

Speak to past or current clients for honest feedback.

4. Meet in person

Arrange a meet-and-greet to see how your dog responds to them.

5. Discuss routines

Ensure they can stick to your dog’s feeding, walking, and medication schedule.

6. Ask about group walks

Clarify whether they walk multiple dogs at once or provide solo walks.

7. Check reliability

Confirm their backup plan in case they’re sick or unavailable.

8. Look for communication

Choose someone who provides updates, photos, or reports after walks.

9. Test with a trial walk

Start with a short session to assess how your dog and the walker get along.

10. Clarify policies

Go over payment, cancellations, keys/access to your home, and emergency procedures.
