Thanks I never thought about M&S! I'll try it now....but..


Here's what I'm thinking about putting on a leaflet for what Mishflynn said I should set up:

"Do you work long hours?
Have young kids?
Feel tired and exhausted when you get home?
Do you have a dog?

If you answered yes to the all the above, then I can help!
I have 8 years’ experience with dogs, walking and pet sitting.

If you work long hours, I can look after them during the day or just take them out for an hours walk.

If you have young children or feel too tired to walk your dog after a long day’s work and cannot take your dog out for its daily exercise, I can.

I have experience with powerful breeds such as Rottweilers and German Shepherds, I have experience with dogs with issues (aggression towards children, people and other dogs) and I also have experience with little dogs such as Yorkshire Terriers and Jack Russells.

Think it’s expensive – Think again!

Just give me a call, explain your situation and I will see to it that you get the help you need/want.
(Please note I am not a trainer, but can train basics – if need be)"

What you think, do I need to add things, take bits out?
Help is greatly aprieciated

Sounds good! I think you need to get insurance though if you are walking other peoples dogs..?

I would also ask those people you have walked for to provide references so people can check you out....

Good idea, but I would say def need some sort of public liability insurance!

Yeaah I just dont know where to apply for it and I forgot to mention references were available

Thanks guys, I didnt know how good it would've sounded - maybe I should add in "I have been bitten a lot so my jabs are up to date " lol

Have you tried all the major supermarkets? staff come and go in them all the time.

I found some with Fortis - £68.50 but if supermarkets do it cheaper I'll go there, I cant really afford it at the moment but if I'm going to get a business up and going I need it :/ Thanks guys
