One of the most variable costs of bringing a dog to Australia is the cost of the various vet visits and tests required to complete the paperwork required to bring your dog to Australia. Finally, as the only post-entry quarantine facility in Australia is located in Melbourne, if you don’t live in Melbourne there is the cost to transport your dog to their final destination in Australia. Even without using a pet transport company it is very expensive to bring a dog to Australia, with more costs involved than many people realise, and pet transport companies often just list one daunting large number, rather than breaking down the component costs.

Starting up a dog walking business is a perfect, flexible job for someone who enjoys spending time with dogs and getting outdoors and exercising. This means there’s going to be a lot of demand for dog walkers to take dogs out during the day while their owners are back in work. And you need to ensure that you follow all rules and regulations about the number of dogs you can take out at once, keeping records, and cleaning up after the dogs. And once you’ve spent a little bit of money on your business set up you should be able to make a good profit, while also getting to spend your time working with dogs.
