Dogsfevr Posted December 31, 2015 Share Posted December 31, 2015 This is an area that suddenly everyone wants to be involved with so i would be asking Why would someone trust you with there dog . What skills do you have? Why does this career appeal to you ? What sort of dogs do you have experience with ?? Do you want to do at home sitting or in peoples own homes?? And yes insurance is a must . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sheena Posted January 1, 2016 Share Posted January 1, 2016 You might be interested in having a read of some info about joining Airbnb For Pets. From what I can gather hosts are covered by the insurance from the organisation. See a thread I just started :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tessie1 Posted January 1, 2016 Author Share Posted January 1, 2016 (edited) This is an area that suddenly everyone wants to be involved with so i would be asking Why would someone trust you with there dog . What skills do you have? Why does this career appeal to you ? What sort of dogs do you have experience with ?? Do you want to do at home sitting or in peoples own homes?? And yes insurance is a must . Thank you for a realistic perspective Showdog, Why would someone trust me? Because i`m great with dogs. What skills do I have? I`ve had my own dogs for at least the past 20 years, 2 of which I`ve personally trained from puppies. Regarding people, i have an extensive customer service background. Why does this career appeal to me? Because i`ve wanted to start my owm buisiness for a while, i love dogs, ultimately i want to become a professional trainer, but i don`t have professional experience or a lot of funds. What sort of dogs do i have experience with? Predominantly Rottweilers. Plus Rotty Cross.. eg. Rotty Sherpheard x, Rotty Staffy x, Staffy`s, Labrador Shepheard x, and a Chihuahua. I`d like to do it at other people`s homes because i can`t have a dog at my current residence. Thank you again.
