    When you book an ASAP walk, we will match you with a trusted Paws Walker instantly and your Paws Walker will be at your door ready to walk your dog within an hour!
  • I booked an ASAP walk, when will my walker come?"
    We aim to start your ASAP walk within an hour, however, we cannot guarantee an exact time for your walk to start as this will depend on your walker. You will have a chance to contact your walker after they are on their way to your address if you want to ask for an exact time of arrival.

    Our “Scheduled” walk type allows you to book a Paws Walker for a future date and time of your choosing.

    Our “Monthly Walk” option allows you to book recurring, regular walks for your dog for a month on the days you choose.
  • What is Friendly Furball and Picky Pooch?
    If you are booking a Monthly Walk, you will choose between two options: Friendly Furball and Picky Pooch. When you choose Friendly Furball, the same walker will not be guaranteed for all your walks throughout the month. This is best for dogs who love to meet and spend time with many different Paws Walkers. When you choose Picky Pooch, only one walker will be assigned to all of your walks throughout the month. This is best for dogs who prefer to have the same Paws Walker for each walk.
