Dog Insurance For Dog Walkers

It’s fair to be expected to give at least 24 hours notice of cancellation. Make sure no charge applies if booking is cancelled within this time frame. When notice is given on the day of booking the owner should expect be charged up to 50% of the usual booking fee.

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.

Transporting Your Dog

Transporting Your Dog

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 prices 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 the local dog walkers prices and 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.
