How much does a dog walker cost?
Updated October 2026
What affects the price
- Walk length: 30 minutes vs an hour
- Solo or group: group walks are usually cheaper per dog
- Location: prices are higher in cities and the South East
- Extra dogs: often a reduced rate for a second dog from the same home
What to ask
- Are you insured, and what does it cover?
- How many dogs do you walk at once?
- Where do you walk, and are dogs let off lead?
- What happens if you're ill or on holiday?
- How do you keep my keys secure?
Before the first walk
Arrange a meet-and-greet, agree recall and lead rules, and share your vet's details and any health issues.
