need to add dog walker as a job

@nadifb Oh my gosh... Me too, me too, me too!!! I absolutely agree! A dog sitter and a dog walker would be great teen jobs or part time jobs, and it would be such a relief for pet owners! I would also love if it was an option to have your butler walk the dog.

All my dogs do is dream of having a walk, and since I sometimes have two or three dogs, usually have fencing with the dogs and locked gates, and have large & busy households, dog walking can be a bit of a nightmare.

For instance... sometimes in the middle of the walk the sim decides the walk is done and lets the dog off the leash while I am at the home tending other sims. I end up having to hunt the dog down, confirm things are awry, unlock the gate, call them home, make sure they get there and go inside (without letting another dog escape), and hope that by the time all of this is accomplished the pet is not too exhausted and I have to wait through a nap or they are super hungry or some other such nonsense. And since we cannot see their needs, who knows? Plus through all of this I've had to ignore the rest of the household, and maybe track down the sim who was walking the dog, etc. And to make it all more fun, sometimes I have sent one sim out with each dog. So.... multiply all of the previous potential chaos by 2 or 3.

Note: In case you don't have dogs, the reason I mention the sim letting them off the leash is if the gate is locked to dogs, the dog can go in and out on a leash with a sim, but not on their own. So if the dog is let off the leash on the walk, they are now locked out of the house/gate.  So... they will sit outside the lot or wonder. ☹️

Honestly, I rarely take the dogs for a walk now because of all of this. I add a fence, toys, a doggie door, and a pool so they can swim, play, and run around the yard and go potty on their own, and everyone is more happy in the end... or at least it doesn't drive me to drink. 😉
