What to check before hiring a pet walking

Review the provider after each period of collaboration — you help other pet owners make good decisions.
Arrange a meet-and-greet session between your dog and the walker before the first walk — this reduces the animal's stress.
Prepare a walking kit: spare leash, waste bags, treats, vet's phone number.
Inform the provider about your dog's habits: preferred walking spots, whether it pulls on the leash, whether it's scared of cars or other dogs.
Check that the walker recognizes stress signals in dogs so they can intervene before a situation escalates.
If your dog has breed-specific needs (brachycephalic, elderly dogs), mention this and adjust the duration and intensity of walks accordingly.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the provider also care for cats or other pets?

Many providers also accept cats, rabbits, hamsters, or birds. Visits for cats are usually once or twice a day and include feeding, water change, and some playtime.

My dog is aggressive towards other dogs — can I still use the service?

Yes, but it's important to inform the provider about the animal's behavior. Many dog walkers are trained to handle dogs with difficult behaviors, but they'll use a short leash and avoid crowded areas.

Does the animal need to be vaccinated?

Yes, absolutely. Any responsible provider will ask for proof of up-to-date vaccinations and deworming. This protects both your dog and other animals it may encounter.

My dog needs medication — can the walker administer it?

Some providers agree to administer medication according to the vet's instructions, especially during pet sitting. Discuss this in advance and provide clear written instructions.

Can I request photo or video updates during the walk?

Yes, many dog walkers send photos or messages during walks on request. This is a common and appreciated practice among pet owners.

What happens in a veterinary emergency?

Establish an emergency protocol upfront: your vet's number, authorization for the provider to seek emergency veterinary care, and who covers the costs. It's best to set these out in writing.
