Frequently Asked Questions

How do I track where my dog walkers are during active walks?

Walkers clock in via the app and their GPS location is visible to dispatch in real time. You can see which walker is at which address and when each walk ends.

Can I assign multiple pet visits to one walker's daily route?

Yes. Build a walker's daily route by assigning multiple jobs in sequence. They see the full list ordered by time on their phone and check off each visit as completed.

How do I verify a walker actually visited a client's home?

GPS clock-in is recorded at the client's address. If the location doesn't match, you're alerted. Walkers can also snap a photo at arrival for added client transparency.

Can clients see real-time updates on their pet's walk?

Share a job summary link with pet owners after the visit, including clock-in time, duration, and any walker notes. Builds trust and reduces 'did they actually show up?' calls.

How do I handle emergency vet situations during a walk?

Walkers can add urgent notes and photos to a job from the field instantly. You're notified immediately so you can contact the owner and coordinate care without delay.

Can I track overtime for walkers who cover extra routes?

Yes. The system totals hours per pay period and flags overtime thresholds automatically. You see who's approaching overtime before it becomes a payroll surprise.

What does it cost for a small pet care operation?

Free for teams of 2 or fewer. Larger teams pay $5 per employee per month. Every account starts with a 55-day free trial so you can test it fully before committing.
