picked up a new customer this week and while I was cleaning house she asked if I would pick dog muck up if she gave me £10 I said I would then she asked could I do it every month for £10 I said I will so long as the gardens not full of it. What would you do

I'd tell her to F*** Off! and that I was never going back out of principle.

Next they'll be asking you to clear up dog sick. Then you'll be doing the backs AND the fronts.
Let's hope they don't ask you to do the insides!  ;D

Seriously though...NO!

I wonder if there are any companies that offer a dog poo collecting service?
Could be a nice little start-up business.
Definitely a niche market.
10 quid a week, posh houses, disposal and sanitising. You could build up a nice little round. I reckon you could do 5 or 6 custies an hour, nice and compact (the round that is!).
And you could work on very rainy days; might be a more slippery job though!

You’ll be babysitting and doing her ironing next.

(This has got to be a wind up!)
Why don't you have a quick google before making stupid comments?

You could then sell it to window cleaners who have had customers rip them off win win  ;D

Google it, I think you will be very surprised at the results. Some guy makes £56,000 a year doing it

im thinking of charging 50p per piece for small dogs and £1 per piece for large dogs. If I get enough work I might be selling my window round

No way would we do that I wouldn’t take on a customer with that kind of attitude I expect to be able to work in a reasonably clean and safe environment , instantly dumped

Don't forget to make them aware of your turds and conditions.

Had someone tell me they could never keep a window cleaner and asked if I would clean them. Let them know the night before that I would be around the following day, turned up and the garden was riddled in dog poop the size of tennis balls, you couldn't move more then four inches without hitting dog poop. Left her a note to say I wasn't  going to try working around the dog poop and to find some other mug to clean it. Some people are having a laugh. I have a dog myself and I wouldn't expect anyone to have to  work around dog poop. The odd occasional one missed you can understand but not a weeks worth, that just laziness and unhygenic, disgusting.

I think it's disgusting, people shouldn't have dogs if they can't look after them properly,I'd be highly offended and tell them exactly where to go,that's scraping the barrell .

It would depend on the circumstances, there are some elderly people who love and need their dogs but really aren't fit enough to look after them properly, if it helped them keep their dog and the dog was ok I would consider it.
If its just a lazy sod who shouldnt have a dog then I would tell them to get lost.
