Meet the wedding dog chaperone who makes £2.5k-a-month by being a pooch plus one on couples' big day.

Olivia Thompson, 24, walked dogs for extra cash during her lunch break before going travelling in November last year.

When she came back she was figuring out what she wanted to do and discovered being around dogs made her happiest and she had an obsession with weddings.

00:00 So today's venue was in Airdrie in Scotland, it was called Eden Leisure Village and this
00:09 was Neil who we were looking after today. So before the ceremony we headed on a nice
00:15 hours long walk, luckily the venue had a really nice walk on site so we didn't have to travel
00:20 too far, this was him trying to give me a nice big cuddle. But yeah, luckily the walks
00:25 were really nice and then we actually had to walk down the aisle together and then he
00:29 sat until the bride came down the aisle and then I took him outside. This was the couple
00:33 getting married which was really nice and this was a little snippet of the venue. It
00:38 was a really nice venue, it was quite relaxed, quite chilled out. After the ceremony we then
00:42 headed to get some photographs so I helped assist with the photographs with the photographer
00:47 so that they don't have to stress about getting a good photo and then we took him back to
00:51 get some lunch and chill out. This was him with his little goodie bag that he got because
00:55 he booked my gold package and then it was time to chill out so he had a little sleep
01:00 because he'd had quite an intense afternoon and I just sat and watched a little movie
01:03 on my iPad. Once he woke up he was ready to have his snuggles, he was a typical Labrador,
01:09 he loved a cuddle and to be honest I was pretty happy with that, he was a nice big cuddler.
01:14 But I took this video and I thought it was really funny because he's like "umm, who is
01:19 this?" Luckily I also got fed, they had a really nice barbecue on site and then we headed
01:23 for some more photographs after we've had some chill time and by that point it was time
01:28 for me to go so I took him another little walk beforehand and then handed him over to
01:32 the guests.
