Well I've been watching kids for as long as I can remember I'm very good at keep company and calming crying babies. And i guess I have one skill although I'm not certified I do know how to administer CPR to a toddle infant and young child but I don't know all for a pet. If I'm hired I would like to know of any allergies what are tv shows they enjoy or would want to watch , what are favorite snacks or foods,outside activities or how long they should estimate sleep for if I'm hired earlier in the day during nap time. I'm very chirpy attentive I like to listen to music and laugh and teach new things.

I am currently employed in the fast food industry before working at my current position I previously worked at 2 child amusement play places that focused on entertaining children of all ages and help them to enjoy their youth as much as possible and try and uplift them in this cruel world so they can have the best of a childhood as they can get and I hope to do the same for your children.

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.
