This app is a dream come true, and I can’t imagine a better value. I had been a single person operation for years, but once the Covid vaccines came out and people started traveling after being cooped up for two years, I had more bookings than I could cover on my own. I’ve hired 6 different contractors this year, and I don’t know what I would do without Walkies. I can schedule appointments, assign them to different team members, see their work in real time, and see their notes and photos for the client. It has been awesome to have this reassurance that they are providing the same level of care as I do.And just like some of the other reviewers said, the customer support is amazing. I’m not sure when the developer actually sleeps! He’s across the ocean and still gets back to most of my questions within a few hours, no matter what time I send them. There are no cut-and-paste answers - it’s a real conversation. If it’s an issue with my account, he will find the booking and manually fix it. If there’s a bug in the app, he is literally releasing updates the next day. He’s even created a Discord channel where users can chat with each other and with him, so it’s like a whole community of support not just for using the app but for running our actual businesses. I can’t imagine ever using anything else.
Developer Response
Hello! Thank you so much for giving Walkies such a long and in depth review. That means the world to me! So incredible to hear how useful Walkies is for you too. Thank you!
THE BEST APP FOR PET CAREGIVERS!

If you’re looking to start a pet caregiving business, then look no further. This app will elevate your company and take it to the next level. When I am at a meet & greets with potential new clients, I like them to get a glimpse of how they will receive pet updates for their visits and my clients love it!!! The app is so clear, neat and adorable. It adds value and professionalism to your business. It makes running day-to-day operations seamless and keeps me organized. If I ever run into any troubles, Rob, the founder of Walkies, is always working hard to troubleshoot and solve my issues as quickly as possible. I truly have never seen customer support like this. Rob cares about your experience and is always listening for ways to make improvements. I constantly get updates and patch notes on how he is making Walkies better. This is honestly a MUST-HAVE platform! I promise you will not regret making Walkies your partner in crime 💕 In summary, I love the Walkies app and you will too.
I love Walkies

Update 2: After Walkies newest beta release I am very happy with Walkies. It is just about everything I could want in a dog walking software. Rob did a great job listening to all of our wants and needs when creating the updated version of the app. He has also included an AI response system for questions which helps a lot. The new data tracking was the most exciting thing for me. I love to see all the numbers. Rob has also been so attentive during the beta testing stage making sure to help anytime someone catches a bug. Thank you, Rob.Updated review: I enjoy Walkies until there is a problem and then I really struggle. Rob is not always responsive to questions or problems. This app would be so much better if he had a small support team. It’s really difficult to navigate problems when getting a response back is hit or miss. Currently I would love to get info on adding an employee and the support is just not there. I have also noticed a discrepancy in payment received tracking and would love a solution as I am having to do lots of extra work to get proper numbers. I want to see Walkies succeed. Please get additional support Rob!!! I started with Walkies just 2 months ago. The first month was a little clunky getting the hang of everything but now I absolutely love Walkies. Rob has been so helpful I can’t thank him enough. I was struggling to close the deal with private clients prior to Walkies and since implementing the app almost every lead has turned into a client. I can’t wait to see the growth yet to come. 🫶🏼
The Best Pet-Sitting Software, hands down.
A Girl & Her Golden
We will (and have!) shout it from the rooftops - Walkies is a phenomenal app for pet sitters and dog-walkers. We have tried many different apps geared towards pet-services and none of them compare to Walkies! Walkies is adorably designed - the colors, icons and overall graphic design are eye-catching and kitschy. The interface is intuitive, clean and cohesive. Our clients say the same of the client app - intuitive, clean and cute! Walkies is powerful in its capabilities - think mileage tracking built in, invoice management, CRM - but what makes it come out above TTP and any other pet-sitting app is the developer. Rob, who is the developer, designer and founder is constantly working to improve the app and fix any issues that arise quickly. We’ve found him open to feedback and suggestions and seen a few of our feature suggestions come to life! We appreciate him and his software for making the management of our small business 10x easier.
FIXED: Custom updates without services selected didn't show up at all, that is now fixed, they will show up for all services as they are supposed to do.
