Benefits of being self-employed
As a dog walker for our clients, you are classed as self-employed. If you are not already registered as self-employed, you will need to do so. There are many benefits to registering for self-employment such as:
- As a self-employed person you may be able to claim benefits or tax credits, depending on your income and other circumstances.
- Despite being responsible for paying your own income tax, there are special tax reliefs and allowances, which self-employed people can claim.
- The standard Personal Allowance for income tax is £12,570 (2020/21) and that is the amount of income you can earn without having to pay tax.
- Once registered as self-employed, you can claim back certain expenses including travel costs / parking / repairs and servicing to your vehicle.
- Being self-employed means you are in control of your own working schedule.
As a self-employed person, you are responsible for your own tax and national insurance contributions. It could well be that you are not liable to make any contributions. This will depend on the number of hours that you work and the amount that you earn.
