I can not take credit for writing this but it is so true 🥰

Secrets of a Dog Carer

It's not a job that will make millions; but for me, it's a job millions times better than many...

Dog Carers talk to each other more than you might think. About the best walking boots, what clothing we are wearing for today's weather, our financial ideas, the traffic, fallen trees, etc. It's a lonely job but we have each other's backs from a distance.

We don't physically have eyes in the backs of our heads but we know so well the sound of every jingle of every ID tag, and every dog's individual footfall on the ground behind us..

We can't physically see round corners either, but we know so well each leading dog's body language in reaction to an oncoming person and/or dog, that we may as well be able to.

We hear "Are they all yours?!" and "Wow you've got your hands full" at least twice a day, but we always smile and say "They keep me on my toes". Every. Single. Time.

It actually breaks our heart when a dog moves out of our area, and we thoroughly investigate our replacement for our own peace of mind, even if the client hasn't asked us to. Or when one of these borrowed babies gain their angel wings - that really sucks, we cry like they were our own (I'm filling up now just thinking about the ones who have passed 🥺)

If you peel back a few layers of clothing (depending on the season) you will find bruises, scratches and scrapes covering the whole of our bodies. Don't bother asking where they came from, we have no idea.

If you see a dog walker looking vaguely presentable on a weekday, you should send help, something is not right.... However, poo bags will still be in every pocket

We love our clients' dogs as we do our own and will sometimes lie awake at night worrying about their injuries, illnesses, and behaviour problems. We can't help it after spending so much time with them.

We have nick names for every dog, and yes they sometimes make no sense, but the dogs know that's your way of saying you'll always protect them like your own.

Despite the harsh winters (and rain in the summer!), the blood, sweat and tears, the dog slobber, the headbutts, and the smell of damp dog, it really is the best job in the world 🥰

PAYMENTS!
Please can I remind everyone that all payments for the week aheads walks are due before Monday 9am! It is now Wednesday and I am still waiting on payment for not only this week but also for last weeks walks. This isn’t fair as this is how I earn a living and pay my bills. I’m sure you wouldn’t be happy if your wages were late. I’m sorry to have to post this but it’s getting more frequent and I don’t have the time or the energy to keep chasing payments. Thank you.
