Money Moral Dilemma: Should we keep paying our dog walker in lockdown?
Comments

End the contract explaining the new times don't work for you, ask them to contact you when they start providing services at the time that suits you so you can have 1st refusal. If you want to help them out you could offer a 'retainer' to keep your time slot. If they tell you they can do the original time before you are ready to use them then you could offer to pay for not walking until you are ready to resume using their services. All based on the assumption you have no money worries of your own and you value their service so want them to stay in business until things settle down.

That rule went a few weeks ago.Smodlet said:Why pay a dog walker when you can walk your dog yourself, now one is supposed to leave one's home only once a day for exercise? Why not combine it with exercising the dog and minimising others' potential contact with you/it?1
