Thanks!

Whoever thought that this type of business, a professional dog walking service, would take off across this country?

Not along the same line really but I find dog walking services just as amazing as the Roomba. Those vacuums that can be set to do the vacuuming for you.

I've been a local dog walker/pet sitter since 1988, in case anyone's interested. I speak Dog and Cat pretty well.

Since you're currently unemployed (per your thread on dating), maybe you should apply for this job.

Just a thought.

You are right, and I did apply for it this morning, either right before or after I posted in Dating. Here's hoping!

Every time I see the title of this thread I think of Al Pacino.

Dog walking is timeless, silly.

Got your email - unfortunately we aren't hiring right now! I will keep you in my 'pending' file, we may need someone come fall.

FYI (for others) dog day care is not dog walking, although both have fantastic benefits for your dog. Any dog can have a walker, but only social dogs that pass an assessment process can stay in day care, for the safety of all the other dogs and my staff.

Ironically, I'm planning to get a dog walker for one of my dogs, who is not very good in day care. He's also not the best with all people, so it will have to be someone very special who can deal with is issues.

That makes sense. They're a lot different than sticking 15 toddlers in a room together.

**SnowballIII** · 07-13-2009, 05:46 AM

Yeah, toddlers don't usually play with teeth and nails...

Yeah I've heard most chinchillas don't like Hunan. Try Szechuan.

I only joined philadelphiaspeaks a couple of weeks ago, so I hadn't noticed, but thanks for the heads up.

I'm registered with every temp agency and job bank you could name, but I'm not familiar with focus groups. Can you suggest any? Thanks for your suggestion, I'm open to almost anything at this point!
