I have been a TA for over 4 years working with kids attending elementary not in high school. I have experience with kids with special needs and have a good understanding of ASL. I’m currently in school so my availability is more limited but my work shows I am capable of being able to help out. My prices are low because I understand the need for looking after kids I have help raise my smaller cousins and siblings so I have a nurturing background. I’m also apart of my schools band regiment which is a big deal as it shows leadership skills. I am flexible with how much you pay as I’m working for experience and extra money but I would love to be part of your family as occasional help or even a weekend at home helper with just chores or cleaning.

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.
