What could be better than being paid for leisure walks? Not only do you get fresh air and a bit of exercise but also get paid for doing so. If you like going for leisure walks, you will really love this business. If you are not enthusiastic about leisure walks, you will start loving it when you see the green bucks flowing in.
A dog walking service is what we are talking about here. If you love dogs, you will really enjoy running this service. If you do not, you might actually start loving them when you find the huge business potential that this business (dog walking service) has.
You don't need much skill for starting a dog walking service. However, you do need some equipment (i.e. multi-lead dog walking collars and leashes) which can easily be bought for less than $100. Such equipment will allow you to walk 3-5 dogs at a time without any problem of leads being entangled. This would make dog walking even more convenient and profitable enterprise.
You can offer a morning 'dog walking service' and/or an evening 'dog walking service'. You can keep flexible timings initially; and as your business grows, you can fix the time slots if you want. You can keep the length of each walking session at one hour and cover 0.5-1 mile (back and forth) during that time.
