Talk to me about Dog Walkers (please! 😊)

Hey Fanny, good to see yiu. You have a dig 🐶🐕

Dog walking and day care a growing, unregulated industry. My local park is dominated by ‘professional’ dog walkers. Our council missed a trick and doesn’t limit the numbers any one handler can walk. So, some have 7 or 8 dogs with them. One couple arrive in a van and take out 7 over excited yappy dogs - off lead together

So - if you’re looking for one, find out what their qualifications, experience and insurance cover is. How many dogs they walk together. Will they let your dog off lead, other than in a safe enclosed field
Best of luck x

Hallo again FannyCornforth - I wondered what had happened to you. Hope you’re well. Sorry, I know nothing about dog walkers, but it’s good to hear from you!

Good to hear from you FannyCornforth sorry I cannot help with your dog walker questions.

Please don’t go away again.

Oh hello there Fanny, sorry haven't used a dog walker but around here I believe they are charging £10 for 30mins or £15 for an hours walk. The two I meet most often when I am out and about with my little feller are both very responsible young women who have done their doggie first aid courses, mostly seem to walk one or two at a time and don't just stand about and chat! So so nice to see you back! Did that pretty little puppy come to live with you?
