BorrowMyDoggie - any good?

We are thinking of getting a small dog as a new member of our family. I came across a site called BorrowMyDoggie.com where you sign up and you can take other people's dogs for walks, etc. I havent had a dog for a good few years and thought that perhaps this would be a great way to get back into the habits of walking a dog and seeing if it is definitely something that we can commit to and at the same time, helping others by walking their dog. Has anyone in Poet's Corner used this site - is it highly recommended? Would love to get some feedback before registering.

There's always puppy walking for Guide Dogs for the Blind, where you get a Labrador puppy and socialise it for a year or so till it's ready to go to guide-dog school.http://www.guidedogs.org.uk/supportus/volunteering/what-can-i-do/puppy-walkers/#.VCwkRRYZlIY

Thanks Susan but I can't get a dog on a full time basis just yet as we want to have some work done to our house first over the next few months which is why I would like to take this time to maybe help someone else out a few times a week after work or on weekends.
