What Affects the Cost?

Pricing depends on walk duration (20–90 minutes), number of dogs, and frequency of service. Specialised needs—such as walking elderly, anxious, or high-energy dogs—may increase cost. Weekly packages and standing orders typically offer 10–15% discounts. Location within Totnes affects travel time. Dog walkers with advanced training (behavioural support, recall work) or insurance often charge slightly more. Seasonal demand in summer can influence rates.

Money-Saving Tips

Book regular weekly walks rather than one-offs to unlock 10–15% discounts. Consider shared group walks if your dog enjoys socialising—often 20–30% cheaper per dog than private walks. Combine dog walking with pet sitting during holidays for package discounts. Negotiate monthly standing orders with local walkers.
