Dog Walker Islington

I got talking to dog walker Islington business owner the other day we met while we were both walking dogs in the park, being an average Brit I launched straight into how much do dog walkers make, how much do dog walkers charge etc. Well not straight in we did exchange pleasantries first.

Anyway I think we have stuck up what could be a long term friendship we get along really well he didn’t mind answering all my questions in fact he was positively encouraging me to ask more questions as he thinks anyone brave enough to consider starting a dog walk Islington business or any type of business should be encouraged as much as possible.

So although I didn’t really need encouragement I took him at his word and this is the list of questions I asked about starting a dog walking business naturally first up was:-

Is dog walking a good business.
How much to charge for dog walking.
Do you need dog walking insurance and if so what insurance do I need for dog walking business and can you recommend the best dog walking insurance.

I thought at that point best not to push my luck so just threw in a last one did he know of a dog walking business for sale. To which he answered no, and then said to be really successful you need to offer as well as dog walking Islington, dog sitting, dog grooming and dog boarding kennels.

Give Adam (we had formally introduced ourselves by this time) his due he went into trying to answer my questions without skipping a beat and came back with, in his opinion dog walking for the right people and he said by this I mean dog lovers is an excellent way to make a living.

As far as rates charges for dog walking goes he said it’s like everything in business how longs a piece of string, area by area dog walking prices will vary though he said as a national average he remembered reading somewhere £6-£10 on hour.

On Dog insurance he said anyone who tried to run a dog walker Islington business or anywhere else without proper comprehensive dog business insurance must be mad.
