Do I have to pay taxes on dog sitting?

No, you don’t. If you think you are not being taxed, check with your local government tax office. Taxable income is the income from self-employed jobs that fall within the income tax bracket, so it could also be the income that comes from paying for your household services like housekeeping, laundry, dishwashing, or cleaning.

He told The Sun: ‘I think it was left out in the sun because the last shopkeeper wasn’t looking for it.

Pritchard, who is said to have been ‘very angry’ after the theft, has also revealed that he has had numerous previous brushes with the law. He was fined £200 in 2000 for failing to stop at a stop sign.


His most recent brush with the law was in 2007 when he was fined £3,500 for riding his bike without a licence.
