    So what security measures do you have in place to protect the dog owners? Or infact the dog walkers – ie to stop some nutter contacting them…………..

    I would worry about something happening with my own dog, i.e magically gets loose, another dog attacks her, my own mother worries about taking my dog out incase something happens to her, how would you feel about someone else? The idea in principle makes sense, but who would be insured and liable if something was to happen. Would the walkers be checked, i’d be worried about her being stolen. but thats me, worry worry worry.
    But it would give a great new lease of life to those poor old souls stuck inside whilst their parents go out/work!

    Hi,

    I can see in principal how it would work but the insurance for that must be extortionate. Or do they hope that should there be any claims (particularly if the dog causes an accident), it comes off the owner’s insurance (assuming they have their dog insured)?

    I can see how if someone really can’t get out and about, maybe because of mobility problems r the elderly, it would make sense. But wouldn’t those people who can’t give their dogs what they need either try to rehome them or ask friends or family to walk them first before allowing strangers to take their dog?

    Sounds like a good idea but also sounds very dodgy to me. There’s no way on earth anyone but me is allowed to walk my loonies. They are big strong dogs but walk well on a lead. If anything was to happen to them if I was silly enough to allow someone else to walk them, I’b be looking for blood!  >:D

    Great idea on face value.

    Just a shame that the security for both parties is missing.
