Freelance grooming ?

[madmare22]

Just a bit of market research really

Do these people exist ?

How much per hour ?

Insurance, I assume if they are freelance/Self employed you wouldnt need employers liability insurance ?

What insurance shold a freelance groom need ?

Where would you look for one to do holiday cover ?

Where would you advertise if you were one ?

My neighbour is a freelance groom, she looks after my boys when I am on holiday. She charges £10 per hour (I get mates rate of £8) and she takes 2 hours to turnout, bring in, rugs both ways, quick groom, mucking out, haylage, and feet!!! She has her own grooms insurance. She gets new clinets my word of mouth and doesn't need to advertise. Although everyone wants her in the winter and no one wants her in the summer, except for holiday cover!!
