My husband is self employed, so basically picks the jobs/days he wants to work. He aims for 2/3 per week.
His other "job" was to walk our dog, he loves to be outside, walking.
Due to the nature of his job, these first couple of months are quiet, and we lost our own dog. I was thinking about him offering a free dog walking service to anyone in our village. Obviously he has no "qualifications" or insurance or anything like that. He wouldn't be able to offer a guaranteed day/time, just a case of "ring and see if he is free"
So basically would you use a service like this if a neighbour who you didn't really "KNOW" but recognised offered such a thing, or would you rather pay for a professional, knowing that if an accident happened your vet fees etc., would be covered by their insurance?
Or is it a totally bad idea?
