What’s an example of a day working at Swifto?
On a typical day of working here, you’ll do 5-6 walks a day depending on your availability. You’ll start by going over your schedule on the app the previous night so you’re prepared for the next day. You’ll make sure you have the keys needed and plan out which route you will take to get to all of your walks on time. Once it is time to do your first walk, you’ll travel to your first walk and greet your furry friend! You’ll make sure Fido is fastened in comfortably and securely to his harness or leash, then it’s time for an adventure! Throughout the walk, you’ll need to pay close attention to how the dog’s feeling, if he’s made any new friends, what he’s interested in, etc and when he does his business. You’ll have the pup you’re walking pose for some cute photos to send to the client, then once you’re finished you'll travel to your next regular client, and, once you’re finished for the day, you’ll head back home knowing you made some Swifto dogs happy as can be!
What will my route look like?

Your consistent route will all be in the same neighborhood but won't necessarily be close to your home, typically a dog walker will travel up to 30 minutes to their route, then their walks will be within walking distance throughout your scheduled time slot.
