    • Languages I can speak: English and German

I am a responsible, dependable high school student with a strong academic foundation and a passion for helping others. I have completed honors and Advanced Placement coursework, including AP English Language, AP United States History, AP Psychology, Precalculus Honors, Biomedical Science, and Jewish Studies.

I have experience caring for both children and animals. I previously had a dog, so I understand the importance of providing pets with patience, attention, exercise, and routine care.

I know CPR, how to use an EpiPen, how to give medications when needed, and how to do the Heimlich maneuver. I always prioritize safety and stay calm in unexpected situations.

I regularly volunteer with elderly adults and individuals with special needs, where I have developed patience, compassion, responsibility, and strong communication skills. Through my volunteer work, I have also received recognition from two U.S. senators for my commitment to serving my community.

I take pride in being kind, reliable, and attentive, and I strive to create a safe, caring, and positive environment for every child, pet, or family I work with.

My skills and interests:

  • Music
  • Singing
  • Animals
  • Foreign languages

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.
