Huddersfield dog sitter (self-employed): Edgerton, Lindley, Almondbury and the Colne Valley
Hilly Huddersfield has an unusual number of homes with a dog and a long commute.
We would like three self-employed sitters who can step in while owners are away, working in the owner's house with the dog's own bed and bowl.
Woof Walk is the UK app that connects them: owners find, book and pay local pet carers there.
Expect bookings like a lunchtime visit in Lindley, nightly check-ins in Edgerton, or a long weekend of overnights at Almondbury.
Honley, Marsden, Longwood and villages up the Colne Valley might also fit your route.
The job is feeding, garden breaks, medicines if needed, company and a message home.
Nobody is promising you a living.
There is no wage, and no guaranteed bookings; what you have instead is control of your own prices for visits and nights.
The owner pays through the app and your bank receives it.
If you would prefer to have dogs stay at your home, that is boarding. A council licence is needed before you begin, and the app keeps it as a separate service from sitting.
Terms: free to join.
Commission is nil for the first 14 days, then 15% of each booking until five of your own clients have joined, when it settles at 10%.
Clients who come to the app through you pay the 10% rate from their first booking.
Keeping tidy tax records, paying National Insurance and holding insurance is your side of the arrangement. You need to be over 18 and meet owner and pet before booking.
Reliable and trustworthy, as owners hand you their keys and their pets. Calm and caring with dogs and cats. Good communication with owners. A smartphone to use the app.
