Get paid in the app
Families pay by card or bank right in the app. You link your bank once, and the money goes straight to you, every day. We never hold your money. Card: 3.5% + 30¢ per payment. Bank: 1%, never more than $5.
Families get one bill a week.
Find a walker near you
A local directory where families find walkers by area. Each walker owns their listing, and every review comes from a family with a finished walk. A walker's own app and website never show this list, so no client gets sent to someone else.
Featured spots cost $10 a month. Each area has 3 at most, and they're always labeled. Everyone else is ranked by reviews and distance. Sample listings.

Questions
Do I really get my own app in the App Store?
Yes. Your app is published under your business name, with your icon and colors. Apple asks that it come from your own Apple developer account ($99 a year, paid to Apple). We help you set that up, and the setup fee covers the rest.
Can I start before my own app is approved?
Yes. You and your families can use the DGWLKR app and website right away, with your business name and colors. Your own App Store app follows.
I already use other software. Can I switch?
Yes. Add your clients and dogs, or send us your client list through the support form and we'll help bring it over. Set up your schedule once and the walks repeat on their own.
How do payments work?
Families pay by card or bank in the app. Payments are handled by Stripe, and the money goes straight to your own bank account, paid out daily. We never hold your money. Cash and check are free: just tap "Mark paid".
What about GPS and privacy?
You choose: GPS off, route only (families see it in the report card), or live. Location is only used during a walk. Door codes are stored encrypted. We don't sell data, show ads, or track anyone.
Can I cancel any time?
Yes. There's no contract. Your data stays yours, and you can delete your account in the app.
Where does DGWLKR work?
Anywhere in the US. We're a Maryland company and started with walkers around Annapolis.
