Dog walking and pet sitting in Alford: the basics
What the job involves
Dog walkers take dogs out singly or in small groups on a regular schedule; pet sitters visit your home to feed and care for cats and small animals, or stay overnight. Doggy day care looks after dogs during the working day at licensed premises.
Safety and good to know
Dog walking does not need a licence, but day care and home boarding in England do (from the local council under the 2018 animal licensing regulations). Ask to see the licence for any day care. LincsDirectory doesn't vet or endorse businesses — always check credentials and get a written quote.
