    I see alot of people walking dogs in the evening that have been working during the day.

    Would people pay for a dog walking service? My doctor said that she would! I really like dogs as well of course and look after my housemates one all the time!

    I'm also 28 so I'd be fairly mature.

    Thanks.

    Ahh, if you're off sick, then I'd guess you're getting illness benefit.

    That's kinda incompatible with self-employment.

    That said - some rich people would pay for it, some wouldn't. Some probably need the exercise themselves as much as the dogs do.

    From what i know there is quite a few dog walking services in and around galway city so im guessing there is people wanting it done. So if you charged competitively enough im sure people would. I would definitely get a dog walker if i hadnt the time to do it myself!!!
