Answer #1

I believe you should ask neighbors if they have any dogs that they would be willing to pay you to let you walk them. this applies especially with senior citizens who have a hard time walking. you might want to try making signs to put up in a few local business’ break room for the workers to see.you can also put up signs at pet hospitals or kennels on a bulletin board in the waiting room or near the front desk. you should make sure that you have your rates on the size of the dog and how long you walk the dog or care for it.people commonly want to pay with a check so you should put on your sign that you except cash and check, or cash only. you should always have a few spare leashes in case the owner forgets their leash or dont own one. Lastly, check local pet laws for tips on whether it is legal or not legal to leave pet droppings. if not you should get a pooper scooper or make sure you keep bags to pick up the waste.

Well do you like dogs? Do you have experience with dogs?

If you really think you could handle the responsibility of looking after someone else’s dog - to some people their most precious thing - it’s easy?

Do some research - decide how much you’re going to charge for each size of dog as bigger ones will need longer walks. Make sure it’s worth your while but not too expensive or you won’t get any customers.

Then get advertising. Drop leaflets through doors and tell friends to tell friends to tell friends etc. easy - I like business so for anymore advice funmail me or post a comment on my page . . . . .

updated: heres some more advice:

Get some dog toys for them to play with and some dog treats - this will make it more worth while for the owner - don’t spend too much or you won’t make much profit.

ummm start going to neighbor’s who have dog’s and tell them that you’d be glad to take their dog/s on a walk for a bit of cash. Thats what I use to do I got up to 20.00 a week if not more. depends on the hours you walk the dog/s
