Your postcode. Your dogs.
No competition.
We list one dog walker per postcode district. Not a directory of twenty rivals, not an app taking a cut of every walk. When someone on your streets searches for a dog walker, they find one name — and while you hold the district, that name is yours. £15 a week, billed £65 a month, VAT included, locked for life.
Free until your page sends you your first enquiry · then £15/wk (billed £65/month), locked for life · No contract, no joining fee
One five-day dog pays for the district. Several times over. Every year.
Price it the way the trade actually works: a dog walked five days a week at £10–£15 a walk is £2,600–£3,900 a year — and walking clients stay for years, because the dog isn't going anywhere. Your district costs £15 a week. Win one full-time dog off the page and the fee is buried; everything after that is pure round. And until the page sends you your first enquiry, you pay nothing at all.
The app-and-lead-site racket
- ✕Takes 15–20% of every walk you ever do for a client it "found" you — forever
- ✕Sells the same enquiry to three, four, five walkers at once — then charges every one of you for it
- ✕Ranks you against anyone with a lead and a free afternoon — the race to the bottom is the product
- ✕Stop paying and you vanish the same afternoon

This is for the real walkers.
Sole traders, one van with crates in the back, and a belt full of other people's house keys — the most trusted person on the street, six households deep. The ones who walked ten years of weather for a round built gate by gate, name by name. If that's you, this platform was built around your working week.
The solo walks before the world wakes up. The reactive collie at half six, before the park fills. The pre-work drop-ins, the gate codes, the exact order the round runs so no dog is left crossed. Nobody claps for it — but six families get to work on time because you don't sleep in. Graft like that deserves a patch of the map with your name on it.
Rain cancels nothing. The dogs still need out, so it's mud to the elbow, a towel per dog, and a van that smells of wet dog and honest work. The round runs anyway — it always has. A platform for this trade should be as reliable as you are on a wet Tuesday.
The most dangerous word at the gate. Just a garden let-out. Just ten minutes. Just while we're away — for a fortnight. You've learned to price the word "just" — and when to walk away from it. You've earned a platform that doesn't play games either.

Your page goes up
Your district page carries your name, your services and your round — built to rank for "dog walker in your district" on Google and to be the answer when someone asks an AI the same thing.
Enquiries come direct
Owners contact you straight off the page. No middleman, no commission, no cut of your walks — and every dog you take on goes on your round for years, not onto an app's books.
2,837 districts. Every one still open. That's the point.
Other sites would show you a counter ticking down and hope you don't ask questions. We'd rather show you an empty board and tell you the truth: founding claims just opened. This board fills up as walkers claim their streets — and it never empties, because a claimed district only comes back if its holder lets the standards slip.

Your office, Monday, 6:45am.
No desk, no meetings, no commute worth complaining about. Six dogs, four miles, first light over the hills — a working week worth protecting. One name per district is how it stays yours.
Everything a one-van round needs. Nothing it doesn't.
Your district page, exclusively yours
The only dog walker we list in your postcode district — built to rank, answered for AI assistants, pointing every enquiry at your phone.
Owners contact you directly
Name, number, direct line. No forms routed through us, no middleman, no commission. What you charge and earn is your business.
A proper backlink to your own site
An authoritative link from the platform to your website — the kind that quietly lifts everything else you rank for.
Waiting enquiries handed over
Anyone who asks for a dog walker while your district stands empty is queued — and introduced to you the day you claim. Real demand, not recycled leads.
Members helping members
A round doesn't stop for a holiday or a broken ankle. One walker per district means the member two districts over is a colleague, not a rival — cover arranged walker to walker, overflow passed on instead of turned away.
A dashboard that tells the truth
Every enquiry delivered on the record, a won-client counter that shows what the page paid you back, and a monthly report of what the platform did for you. No vanity numbers.

Is one client really worth a year of membership?
Several times over. A dog walked five days a week at £10–£15 a walk is worth £2,600–£3,900 a year, and walking clients routinely stay for years — while a district costs £780 a year. One full-time dog pays for the district three to five times over, every year it stays on your round.
