The answer to this depends on the eleven year old and the dogs he or she will be walking. It might be okay if the 11 year old is responsible and if he can actually control the dogs he will be walking. The dogs should be trained, therefore, not aggressive towards other people or animals because an 11 year old may not be capable of restraining the dog, especially if the dog is of a larger breed. Should he walk an aggressive dog, another person or animal can be injured. In addition to this, make sure the dogs the 11 year old will be walking have had all of their vaccinations and make sure you know of any health problems the dogs may have.
This answers if it would be okay, but not if it is legal. There are certain age restrictions for these kinds of things in different cities. It would be wise to check up on this. If this is to become a sort of professional business, then it would not be okay for an 11 year old to become a dog walker.
One of the biggest points as to why an 11 year old should not walk dogs is because he or she is not experienced enough to handle some of the dogs that will be walked and if the dog should injure someone, the 11 year old will be held accountable.
Really, the answer depends on the legality, most of all, also and on the parent's opinion of this. If it is legal, and the parent agrees with their 11 year old walking other people's dogs, then make sure that the parent gets to know the dog owner a little bit before the 11 year old walks their dog.
