Everything you need to run your dog walker business

Packed with powerful tools to grow your revenue, streamline your bookings, and boost client retention.

Round-Friendly Slot Booking

Offer pick-up windows for solo and group walks, plus fixed-time puppy visits. Clients book what you actually deliver, so you’re not squeezing a 60-minute walk into a 30-minute gap and ruining the rest of the route.

Dog Profile, Routine & Handling Notes

Keep lead rules, recall reliability, treat permissions, medication notes, and “no other dogs” flags attached to the booking. You’re not scrolling through old chats when you’re at the gate with a muddy dog and a schedule to keep.

Key & Access Details Stored Properly

Record key safe locations, alarm instructions, parking notes, and who to contact if access fails. When a client changes the code, it’s updated once and visible to you (and your team) for every future visit.

Up-Front Payments for Walks and Visits

Take payment at booking for ad-hoc walks, puppy checks, and pet sitting. For regulars, set up repeat bookings so you’re not sending “can you pay when you get a minute?” messages every Friday evening.

Automated Reminders That Cut No-Shows

Send confirmations and reminders with the time window, access notes, and what you need (towel by the door, harness ready, etc.). It reduces “we forgot you were coming” and stops you arriving to a house with no key access.

Multi-Walker Cover and Handover Notes

If you’ve got another walker covering, bookings can be assigned with clear instructions. No more frantic calls like “is he okay with Labradors?” when someone’s already on the way to the next pick-up.

The challenges every dog walker faces

Running a round, not a diary

Dog walking is about routes, pick-up windows, and keeping groups sensible. One late key handover or a client adding “just 10 minutes” can knock the whole morning out. Without a system, you end up manually reshuffling walks and sending multiple updates to different owners.

Last-minute changes and welfare constraints

Dogs get upset stomachs, come into season, or suddenly can’t be mixed with others. Clients also change work shifts with little notice. If you’re relying on WhatsApp threads, you miss important details and risk putting the wrong dogs together or turning up when nobody’s home.

Keys, alarm codes, and access notes everywhere

Key safes, spare keys, concierge pick-ups, alarms, muddy-gate side entrances — the access details are endless. When that info sits in old messages, it’s easy to arrive at the wrong door or forget the updated code, wasting time and looking unprofessional.

Payments that don’t match the work

Walking is often recurring, but clients cancel, add extras, or ask for holiday cover. If you invoice at the end of the week, you spend evenings chasing bank transfers. If you take cash, you’re counting it and reconciling it later, while still covering your fuel and time.

Built for real dog walker workflows

A typical weekday starts early. You check the morning round: who’s on a group walk, who needs a solo, and which puppy visits are fixed-time. Then the messages begin — a client’s train is cancelled so they want an extra walk, another needs to skip today, someone’s changed the key safe code, and a new enquiry asks “can you start tomorrow?”. Without a proper system, you’re cross-checking a diary, a...

FAQ

Everything you need to know about our dog walker booking system.

Try it free
How do I handle urgent, same-day walk requests without wrecking my round?

Set up specific “same-day” slots or a limited lunch-time window that clients can book if it’s available. That way you’re not agreeing to an extra walk by message and then realising you can’t physically fit the pick-up in. If you’re full, the system simply won’t offer that time.

Can I offer different job types like group walks, solo walks, puppy visits and pet sitting?

Yes — you can create separate services with their own durations, prices and booking rules. Puppy visits can be fixed-time, while group walks can use a pick-up window. Pet sitting and pop-ins can be set as longer blocks or repeat visits.

When should I take payment for dog walking — upfront or after the walk?

For ad-hoc walks and one-off puppy visits, upfront payment stops late payers and makes cancellations easier to manage. For regular weekly clients, you can use recurring bookings and set clear payment timing so you’re not chasing transfers every week. The key is matching payment to your cancellation policy.

Does it cope with seasonal demand like school holidays, winter weather and summer holiday cover?

You can adjust availability week by week, add temporary services (like holiday pop-ins), and block out days when you’re fully booked. In winter, you can reduce late slots if daylight is an issue, or add longer time windows when weather slows the round down.

What if I’ve got more than one walker or I use cover when I’m off?

You can assign bookings to different walkers and keep the same dog notes and access details attached. That makes handovers safer because the person covering can see routines, handling instructions and any “do not mix” warnings. It also avoids clients having to repeat themselves.

How does this help turn enquiries into confirmed bookings?

Most owners message a few walkers and book the first clear option. With a booking link, they can see services and availability straight away instead of waiting for you to reply between walks. You can also request the key details up front so you’re not doing a long back-and-forth before anything is confirmed.

Can I keep clients updated without sending dozens of messages?

Automated confirmations and reminders cover the basics: date, time window, address and any access notes. You can also include what you need ready at the door, which reduces delays on pick-up. It keeps communication consistent even on busy days.

Can I vary pricing for different dogs, areas, or longer walks?

Yes — set different services for solo vs group, 30/60/90-minute options, and add-ons where appropriate. If you charge more for travel outside your usual patch or for weekend cover, you can reflect that in your service setup. It keeps pricing transparent so you’re not negotiating in messages.

Why iBookFast for your dog walker business?

Dog walking in the UK has its own rhythm. Term-time can be steady, school holidays can be all over the place, and winter brings earlier darkness and more last-minute changes when the weather turns. Then you’ve got the January “new routine” rush, and the summer holiday spike where regular clients need extra cover, pet sitting, or more frequent visits. A booking system has to cope with that reality...
