UK Average Local Dog Walking Charges
 
As a dog owner in the UK today, you can expect to pay around the averages £6 to £10 or more in some affluent areas for each dog for a walk that of 30 minutes to an hour. You can usually say six pound roughly for half hour dog walking and nine to ten ponds for one hour dog walking.
 
It’s fair to say that some local dog walkers charges are the same rate for an additional dog from the same household, others may just offer reduced rates of up to 50%. Professional dog walking services often maximise income safely by walking several dogs at the same time.

The danger of doing this is these dogs may develop a pack mentality and or become a little uncontrollable dog walkers lack proper training or handling experience, so be sure to check before booking your dog walkers services also make sure they are able to clean up after all the dogs during a walk. As this poses a health hazard, as well as being illegal.
 
The best guidelines recommend 6 dogs that trained dog walkers should be able to cope with at once, some local councils may have different limits. At the end of the day the number of dogs walked will depend on your dog walker’s experience, as well as the obedience level, size of dogs. Another determining factor would be the area the walk is taking place ie a deserted beech can be easy compared to a park walk with lots of people.

Things To Ask Before Deciding On A Local Dog Walkers Or Dog Sitting Service

Dog Insurance For Dog Walkers

Picture
Insurance

Nervous Dogs

Nervous Dogs
Ask if they offer home visits or solo walks if you feel your dog would need to have one-on-one attention. You and the company or individual can re-evaluate the dog walkers routine as progress is made.
 
Short Notice
Ask how much notice is required to book your dog in.

Transporting Your Dog

Transporting Your Dog
Check suitable vehicles are used for transportation, comfort and temperature control is important.
 Injuries and Illness
Local dog walkers should have attended Basic Pet First Aid training and we carry a first aid kit on vehicles and during walks, make sure a veterinary clinic is used or better still once you have chosen a dog walking service give your insurance and vets details to them.
 
Payment
Check and satisfy yourself you are happy with the local dog walking charges and payment methods used.

Pet-loving, Highly Skilled Vets Should Always Be Used

We know you love dogs so do check the local dog walkers, or dog sitters in charge of your pet love dogs.
 
They should be dedicated to the animals you entrust in to their care. It can be reassuring if they are dog owners themselves and know how important those little things can be to a dog's day, whether it be putting the radio or television on, or just making sure they are comfortable and giving them a little fussing.
 
 
A personal touch can be very important
 
While not essential we have found that a family business or a small franchise can offer that bit of special care, however a lot of large businesses are good as well if they have the right staff and support in place.
 
 
Is your dog going to be in safe hands
 
We recommend using companies that only walk a maximum of four dogs per dog walker at any time, this is to ensure the best possible care and attention to each of the dogs. In addition it’s useful if all dog sitters and walkers are trained in basic pet first aid.
 
Feedback
 
After each walk you should receive a text telling you about your dog’s walk, including location of walking, arrival home time and any other information you should be aware of.
 
 
Do They Offer Free Registration
 
Free registration where they come to you to meet you and your dog and discus your local dog walkers requirements should be standard. Once the registration is complete you should have access to the full range of services offered to our clients. These services would normally include Dog Day Care and Dog Home Boarding.
