Walkie business for dogs ???

lisajane · 2009-03-09 18:00:16

Is there anything complicated about setting up a service for dogs. Like walkies, or petsitting? I mean its just walkies/petsitting, and your charging money so its a business or service. But a business sounds like a complicated thing to set up.

I'd say insurance would be the trickiest part - personal accident, public liability, car insurance if you're carrying dogs etc. There's also the tax end of things to think of. You're not going to need a huge capital investment so finance may not be an issue. Garda clearance is relatively straightforward too, can't think of anything else
