Great job to fit around other commitments; gives you a sense of accomplishment to see the dogs happy and exercised. Every dog has different personality, and this gives variety. Walking routs can be varied daily to make the job more interesting; you never know who you\u2019ll meet or what you\u2019ll see. Good job for someone who loves animals, nature, and walking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Pet carer in Bath: \u2018Best Job Ever! If you like spending your time outdoors and with animals, this is the perfect job for you! My manager is excellent and always there to help, since starting I\u2019ve looked after a wide range of animals ranging from cats and dogs to rodents and farm animals! This is a great flexible job that keeps you on your toes and is great physical strength. Couldn\u2019t recommend enough.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.friendsforpets.co.uk\/dog-walking-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Charlie-1-Bristol.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.friendsforpets.co.uk\/dog-walking-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Charlie-1-Bristol.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-652\" width=\"93\" height=\"132\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.friendsforpets.co.uk\/dog-walking-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Charlie-1-Bristol.jpg 595w, https:\/\/www.friendsforpets.co.uk\/dog-walking-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Charlie-1-Bristol-212x300.jpg 212w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 93px) 100vw, 93px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns are-vertically-aligned-bottom is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-1 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-bottom is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:100%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.friendsforpets.co.uk\/dog-walking-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Julie-1-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.friendsforpets.co.uk\/dog-walking-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Julie-1-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-654\" width=\"87\" height=\"99\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.friendsforpets.co.uk\/dog-walking-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Julie-1-1.jpg 897w, https:\/\/www.friendsforpets.co.uk\/dog-walking-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Julie-1-1-263x300.jpg 263w, https:\/\/www.friendsforpets.co.uk\/dog-walking-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Julie-1-1-768x877.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.friendsforpets.co.uk\/dog-walking-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Julie-1-1-600x685.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 87px) 100vw, 87px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.friendsforpets.co.uk\/dog-walking-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Euan.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.friendsforpets.co.uk\/dog-walking-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Euan-732x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-655\" width=\"77\" height=\"108\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.friendsforpets.co.uk\/dog-walking-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Euan-732x1024.jpg 732w, https:\/\/www.friendsforpets.co.uk\/dog-walking-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Euan-214x300.jpg 214w, https:\/\/www.friendsforpets.co.uk\/dog-walking-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Euan-768x1075.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.friendsforpets.co.uk\/dog-walking-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Euan-600x840.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.friendsforpets.co.uk\/dog-walking-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Euan-945x1323.jpg 945w, https:\/\/www.friendsforpets.co.uk\/dog-walking-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Euan.jpg 988w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 77px) 100vw, 77px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Updates for some of our friends for pets areas:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Brecon<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Brecon are recruiting now for people who are enthusiastic, reliable and have a love for animals!
