This chapter explores the challenges and rewards of dog-walking, detailing how experience can transform feelings of overwhelm into confidence. It highlights the balance between the responsibilities of caring for multiple dogs and the joy that comes from this demanding job.
We explore professional dog-walking around the world. We hear from walkers from the United States, Argentina and Europe about how they operate, the growing market, and the challenges of making a career from taking other people's pets on daily walks - sometimes several at a time.
And we join a dog walker in Paris, Caroline, to find out why the relationship between walker and dog is the most important when securing clients.
Expect plenty of barks.
