For the Love of Dogs.
Dog Walking Terms & Conditions.
(2022)
Listed below are the terms and conditions of our company in order for us to walk your dog.
Please read through them carefully before signing at the end. Thank You.
● All dogs must have a securely fitted harness. On the harness an ID tag must be present. (This is now Law)
● All dogs must have their own pet insurance and we will need to have a photocopy of this.
● Keys for properties will be kept in a safe place, no address details are ever kept on the key fobs.
● All male dogs over the age of 12/18 months must be neutered. If we think there are issues arising before this we will then have a conversation with you about future walks.
● It is beneficial to have all bitches spade as we can not walk any from when they are due in season to around 3 weeks after the last spotting. This is due to them still giving off pheromones & we do not want them to be pestered by other dogs.
● No muzzled dogs/ aggressive dogs will be allowed on our field. This is to stop any issues arising.
● All dogs must be well socialised away from our field as well as when they are with us.
● All dogs are transported in crates and are kept in them for as little time as possible.
● If veterinary procedures are required the owner and their pet insurance will be liable for any costs inured.
● All walks are on a trial basis, if we think it is not suitable for your dog we will be honest & let you know, then we may reserve the right to suspend all further walks.
● There will be fresh drinking water available at all times for your dog whilst they are out with us. Fresh water will also be left when we return them home.
● If your dog needs feeding once we return them home please make us aware of this.
● Please give us as much notice as possible to book your dog walks in. We ask if you can let us know on a Friday night for the following week. This is so we can guarantee spaces & make sure we have availability.
● We will pick up your dog, take them to our field where they can play, socialise and have a great time then return them back
home.
● If there are places we should/should not park when picking up your dog please make us aware of this. (we dont want to upset your neighbours!)
Payment:
Payments can be cash or bank transfer whichever suits you best. Payments are due at the end of a walk, weekly or monthly whichever you prefer. If you could let us know what you prefer, that would be great.
Cancellation:
We expect to be given 24 hours notice if you need to cancel a walk. If less than 24 hours you will still be charged fully for that hour's walk.
