Why UrPetPals over Rover or Wag?
We're built for the UK. We pay walkers better — which means better walkers on your dog.
Why does walker pay matter to you? When walkers earn 82% instead of 60%, they earn a living wage from fewer bookings — so they take fewer dogs, give more attention, and stay in the job longer. Better for them. Better for your dog.
What dog owners say
“Found an amazing walker through UrPetPals within an hour. The live GPS is brilliant — I can check in from work and actually see where Buddy is. He comes back shattered and happy every time.”
Sarah M.
Manchester · Labrador, 3 yrs
“Rocky needs a LOT of exercise. Found a dedicated solo walker who does 90-minute routes through the park every weekday. He's like a different dog — calm in the evenings for the first time ever.”
James R.
Liverpool · Border Collie, 2 yrs
“Biscuit is anxious around other dogs so we needed a solo walker. UrPetPals made it easy to filter and find someone perfect. The photo updates every walk are so reassuring.”

How much does a dog walker cost in the UK?
Dog walking in the UK typically costs £8–16 for a 30-minute group walk, £12–25 for a 60-minute solo walk, and £18–35 for a 90-minute walk. Prices vary by city — London is typically higher than northern cities. Post your job on UrPetPals to see live, no-obligation prices from verified walkers near you.
Are UrPetPals dog walkers insured and verified?
Every UrPetPals walker is identity-verified before their first booking. You can read verified reviews from real owners, message walkers directly before booking, and see their full profile. We recommend confirming your walker's public liability insurance — most professional walkers carry it as standard.
Is there live GPS tracking on every walk?
Yes. Every walk through UrPetPals includes live GPS tracking. You can watch the walk in real-time on your phone, and receive an automatic GPS route map and walk summary emailed to you after every walk.
How many dogs will be walked with mine?
Each walker sets their own group size, clearly shown on their profile. Solo walks mean only your dog. Group walks typically include 2–4 dogs. UK industry guidance recommends a maximum of 4 dogs per walker at any time.
Can I book the same walker every week?
Yes — and we recommend it. Once you find a walker you love, lock them in for regular weekly or daily slots. Your dog builds a real bond with one trusted person, and their routine stays consistent. Most regular clients settle into a weekly schedule within their first two bookings.
What if my dog is reactive or anxious around other dogs?
Book a solo walk. Solo walks mean only your dog and the walker — no group situations, no shared attention, no unpredictable encounters with other dogs. Many UrPetPals walkers have specific experience with reactive and anxious dogs. You can filter by solo-only walkers and read their reviews before booking.
