Chalfie-
My partner and I really want a dog, but our working hours mean that we can’t get one as it would have to be left alone cooped up in the house for hours if not entire working days.
About 5 years ago I joined BorrowMyDoggy and met a couple who were after someone to sporadically walk their 2 Springer Spaniels.
5 years down the line and they only have the one Spaniel (the other was stolen by his parents) and we frequently not only take Daisy out whenever suits us but also take her for the day and occasionally away for the weekend or trip away. The owners also have 2 boys aged 2 and 4 and very hectic work lives so they’re often very happy for us to take Daisy.
If you can find a situation like this then you could be onto a winner.

Don't.
Sign up to the walk a dog app or something. Or adopt an old dog or a breed that doesn't need much or any walking.
