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.


Dog Walker Interview Questions

Ask the following questions when interviewing dog walker candidates to narrow down your list.

Experience & Background

  • How long have you been walking dogs professionally?
  • Do you have experience with my dog’s breed, size, or temperament?
  • Are you trained in pet first aid and CPR?
  • Are you insured and bonded?

Services & Routines

  • Do you walk dogs individually or in groups?
  • How long are your standard walks?
  • Will you stick to my dog’s usual feeding, medication, or potty schedule?
  • Do you offer additional services (feeding, playtime, grooming visits)?

Safety & Emergencies

  • What would you do if my dog gets injured or sick during a walk?
  • How do you handle aggressive dogs or unexpected encounters?
  • Do you carry water, treats, or a first aid kit?
  • What’s your policy if bad weather occurs?

Reliability & Communication

  • What happens if you’re unavailable—do you have a backup plan?
  • How will you access my home securely?
  • Do you provide updates (texts, photos, walk reports)?
  • What’s your cancellation and refund policy?

Trial & Fit

  • Can we schedule a trial walk to see how my dog responds?
  • Are you comfortable with my dog’s specific quirks or needs?
  • Can I speak to a couple of your current or recent clients?
