“One link on my flyers and the neighborhood app books my whole route.” — Tony G., Chicago, IL

Dog walking is a recurring business from the first day, which makes it unusual among service trades — most have to work hard to convert one-off customers into regulars, whereas a dog needs walking every weekday indefinitely. The constraint is different: capacity. There are only so many dogs you can walk in a day, and growth means either raising prices, adding group walks, or adding staff. The administrative burden is the other defining feature. A book of twenty clients on varying schedules, some three days a week and some five, billed by hand, is a bookkeeping job that grows faster than the walking does.

How Dog Walkers & Pet Sitters Price Their Work.

The billing structures this trade actually uses — and what each one means for getting paid. Every one of them can sit on a single rate card.

Per-walk price, billed weekly or monthly

The core service.

Recurring billing is essential here — per-walk manual invoicing across twenty clients is unmanageable.

Package of walks at a discount

Clients booking four or five days a week.

Rewards commitment and stabilises your schedule.

Solo versus group walk

Reactive dogs, puppies, or owners who want individual attention.

Solo walks should carry a clear premium — they consume a slot that could hold three dogs.

Add-on visits

Drop-ins, feeding, medication, key holding.

High margin on a trip you are already making.

Where Dog Walkers & Pet Sitters
Lose Money.

The payment problems specific to this trade, and what actually fixes each one.

hand-billing every schedule

Billing twenty clients on different schedules by hand, every week, forever.

Recurring billing per client schedule removes the entire task.

last-minute cancellations

Last-minute cancellations leave a paid slot empty and a difficult conversation about whether it is still chargeable.

Billing the schedule rather than the individual walk makes the answer clear before it comes up.

uninvoiced holiday cover

Holiday cover and ad-hoc extra visits get agreed by text and never invoiced.

Add-ons booked as their own service are recorded and charged at the point of agreement.

Common Questions.

RateCards is a booking and payment link for Dog Walkers & Pet Sitters: list your services and prices on one page, take bookings and deposits, and get paid by card through Stripe — no website, no app, no code. Free to start, and most providers are set up in minutes. See how RateCards works or explore every feature.

QHow Do I Bill Clients Who Book Different Numbers Of Walks Each Week?

Set each client’s regular schedule as a recurring charge at their frequency, and book any additional walks as separate one-off services on top. The regular pattern bills itself and only the extras need handling.

QShould Solo Walks Cost More Than Group Walks?

Generally yes. A solo walk occupies a slot that could otherwise carry several dogs, so pricing it at the same rate means the client paying for individual attention is effectively subsidised by your group clients.

QHow Do I Charge For Holiday Cover Or Extra Drop-In Visits?

List them as separate bookable services. Because they are recorded when the client books rather than agreed by text, they actually make it onto the bill.

QWhat About Cancellations?

Billing the schedule rather than the individual walk sets the expectation up front, which is considerably easier than negotiating each cancellation as it happens.

QHow Do Dog walkers and sitters Get Paid Faster?

With RateCards.app, clients pay directly through your link — no invoices, no chasing. Payment is processed through Stripe and typically arrives in your account fast.1

QDo Clients Need An App To Pay Me?

No. They open your link in any browser on any device and pay in seconds — no download required.

Yes. Daily walks, drop-in visits, overnights, and boarding — add every service you offer, all on one profile.

QWhat Does RateCards Cost?

Starter is free for your first 6 months — no credit card required. After that it’s $5/mo billed annually ($60 a year) or $7/mo billed monthly.

QWhat Fees Come Out Of What I Earn?

Two, and both are flat percentages of the listed price. A 5.5% service fee is deducted from your payout — that rate is all-inclusive, so Stripe’s processing costs are absorbed within it rather than charged to you separately.7 A 5.5% client booking fee is added to your client’s total at checkout.7 Solo cuts your service fee by 20% and Business by 30%; the client booking fee stays 5.5%. Every rate is listed on the pricing page.
