How do i start up a dog walking business?

My best friend and i are very responsible and would like to take up a dog walking business for a bit of extra pocket money. We are both 13 years old and we own two very reliable dogs. ~How should we advertise ~How much should we charge ~How long should we walk them for please answer as we would very much like to find out about this before we start. i was just wondering what peoples views were and how much they would be willing to pay if they were looking for a dog walker.
advertise in newsagents,post offices,hand out flyers,put up posters,tell people to spread the word etc etc etc I would charge 7 or 8 pounds for 1hour walk to begin with.(5 pounds for 10/15 minutes is ridiculous! keep the dogs on a lead unless you have a small enclosed area(park, maybe?) near you which you can let them off in. BUT YOU MUST HAVE OWNERS PERMISSION BEFORE YOU LET THEM LOOSE!!!!!! good luck!

    Put up flyers in your dog park and the pet shops in your town. You should charge a certain amount for how many dogs you're wakling and how long they want them walked for. Like a ten mnute wak costs 5 or 10. Walk them as long as the owner requests and be reasonable. Big dogs can walk farther distances but small dogs can't. Added If it was me I would pay $5 for every ten minutes per dog. And I would probably ask for a 30 minute walk with both of my dogs. So that's $30 because I have 2 dogs.
