    Hi folks.I am looking for some income and I am thinking to offer dog owners early morning dog walking service.I do like to wake up early and take some fit so it would be beneficial for both. What do you think about that? Thanks:)

    Sounds like a no brainer. There is no capital investment just a bit of advertising and I assume its all cash you will be paid.

    If nobody responds to you advertising then so be it.

    If you posted this over in the Animals and Pets section you would probably get much more feedback.

    Print out some flyers on your computer and go around dropping them into houses in your area with dog owners. If there's a demand you'll soon know, but yeah i'd assume there is a requirement for dog walkers all the time not just early mornings.

    Hi,
    Not a bad idea. As other posters say put a simple sheet together with details and phone number. Use a land line number, most people won't hand their valued pets to a stranger via a mobile number.

    Have you a dog yourself? If you have leave details with your vet. You could also offer to do routine vet visits for people, that's more flyer opportunities!
    Have a look at DoneDeal.ie there are a few walkers advertising.

    What part of the country are you in?

    Best of luck

    Well I don't have my own dog but my sister has and we live together at the moment. I think people sometimes feel lazy to take them dog at mornings.They rather take them time at bed :) So like I mentioned I am able to take dog let say between 6 and 8 am. :) I am in Dublin ANDYJB :)

    Dog Walking - yes, great idea.

    Early Morning Dog Walking - I'm not so convinced.

    If I've got to be up at 6am to greet the dogwalker with my dogs & their leads, then I may as well take them out for a walk myself.

    Might be handy, while you get the kids ready to let someone take the dog for a stroll...
