WHAT A DOG WALKER DOES:
You'll travel to client homes around Norfolk and Virginia Beach to provide dog walking, exercise, and love to dogs. We spend our days outside walking energetic dogs (both big and small), so you need to be ok getting a little sweaty, dirty and hairy, and not be opposed to dog kisses.
After every visit, we send a visit note and photos to the pet parents so they can see how much fun their pet had with us.
We take professional dog walking and pet care seriously and always work to be the best professional pet care team in the area. It's a serious job, but is also the perfect way to get paid to exercise and play with dogs and cats! Many of our staff say it's the best job they've ever had!
