For everyone who lets dogs stay the night

Whether it's a family home with three guests or a kennel with a full team: boarding in Dog Walkers is built for the everyday rhythm of dogs arriving, staying and going home again.

Dog boarding and dog hotels

Occupancy, compatibility, check-in and billing for every stay. With booking numbers, so nothing gets mixed up.

Pet boarding with a dog area

Profiles, vaccinations and allergies for your canine guests are always at hand. To be honest: Dog Walkers is built for dogs. It won't manage cats or small pets.

Questions from the kennel

What boarding owners ask us most often. Missing yours? Write to us.

Which plan includes boarding?

Pro and up. It includes the booking assistant, occupancy calendar, check-in, check-out, daily updates and the invoice from the booking. Staff accounts as well as inquiries and the waitlist come with Business.

Can families book a stay online themselves?

No, you create boarding bookings in the app yourself, for example after a call or an inquiry through your contact form. You send the confirmation with all the details right afterwards. Your clients do handle the intake form, care contract and package booking themselves in the client portal.

How does the app price a stay?

You enter the base price for lodging per day. Then you pick services like three walks a day, medication, puppy care or one-to-one care, each with a daily surcharge. The app multiplies everything by the days of care and shows you the breakdown before you book.

Does the app notice when it gets too full?

Yes. While booking you see every stay that overlaps with the chosen dates and how many spots would be taken with the new booking. When the limit is reached, the app warns you. It also flags guests who don't get along.

Does it work for cats or small pets?

Honestly, not well. Dog Walkers is built for dogs: profiles with breed, vaccinations, compatibility, heat cycles and walking services. If your pet boarding also takes dogs, the app is a great fit for that part.

Can I run walks and boarding in one app?

Yes, that's exactly what it's made for. A family has one client file, whether their dog walks with you during the week or stays with you over the holidays. Appointments, boarding bookings and invoices all hang off it.

What happens if a vacation is cancelled?

You cancel the booking in a few taps and decide whether the family gets a ready-made message. If an invoice already went out, you create a credit note for it.

Running a boarding business? Tell us about it.

We'd love to hear what your days look like and what's still missing in the app. Dog Walkers is made by a small team of dog lovers. A real person answers every message, usually on the same day.
