True . Choosing a dog walker can be a minefield, they promise all kinds of things - like an earlier post where they were told only one other dog yet it turns out to be a pack of 8 - who can control a pack of 8 relativley unkown dogs?! And that's also very unfair on other park users, imagine how intimidating that would be to come across

My biggest bug bear of all though, is when the dogs are put loose into a van together, a recipe for disaster if ever there was one

See, we really agree

The worst thing is that some dog walkers put the quantity over quality. Not once seen a pack of dogs locked in a van,no matter the weather. Cruel! Obviously have met many caring walkers!

Our live in sitters only walk early am and later pm when its cooler. We have stopped taking on daily dog walks as our live in pet sitting service has really overtaken us, demanding more office time.

That said however, we do have two walks one of which is 14 years old, and just pops into the garden for a wee and back for cuddles. Same with the other dog. Its crazy to consider walking a dog in hot sun.
