This is juts one thign I'm thinking of taking up. For example walking peoples dogs during the day whilst they are at work. Deos anyone doe this kind of thing?

If so what sort of rates can you charge and can you recommend any liability insurance for this?
 
Hi

I do this and horse sitting for people almost full time. Its good but is not always very regular, however the best thing to do is to make some adverts and stick them up on vets/pet shops etc. I charge £10 per hour plus travel at 40p per mile, unless its really close and i always take my do with me so she gets really fit!!
 
I was inquiring about this yesterday and one person charged £10 for 45mins plus £5 per extra dog and the other lady charged £7 for 45mins but she did say she was cheap!

Ive recently got a new puppy and cant ebleive how much I hate leaving him so will be sitting down to night to see if i can make dogs and horses stack up in the old wages department so i can be with him all the time!
