hello everyone welcome to my profile!

Hi parents and families!

I'm Natalia, 17 years old and currently on a gap year before heading into a career in forensic psychology. I’m using this time to work, gain experience, and do more of what I love—caring for children and pets!

I’ve been around kids most of my life, starting with helping family and friends by watching their little ones (even when I was still a kid myself!). As I got older, I took on more responsibility, including long-term babysitting. I’m attentive, quick-thinking in crucial moments, and always focused on making sure children feel safe, supported, and happy.

As for pets—I’ve grown up surrounded by them! Dogs, cats, rabbits—you name it. I’ve developed a deep love for animals and know how to care for them with patience and understanding.

If you're looking for someone trustworthy, responsible, and genuinely caring for your kids or pets, I’d love to help out!

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.
