Prices are shown as clients pay them. Sales tax on pet services depends on your state.
- Start from your costs: insurance, fuel, equipment, software and the time you spend traveling, not just walking.
- Check what others charge locally. Prices in big cities can be well above these ranges.
- Charge for extras: weekends and public holidays, key holding, extra dogs and last-minute bookings.
- Review your prices once a year and give clients a month's notice of any change.
These ranges are indicative, based on published marketplace and directory prices checked in October 2026. They're a starting point, not advice: your prices depend on your costs, your area and your experience.
