Pay

The same pay, wherever you walk.

Walks pay £12 for 20 minutes, £16 for 30 and £24 for 60. Home visits pay by type and length, from £8.50 for a 20-minute cat check-in. Paid per walk, not per hour: per hour of walking that works out at £24 (one hour-long walk) to £36 (three 20-minute walks). Time travelling between walks is not paid. You see the pay before you accept. No bidding, no surge pricing, no deductions for using the app.

Questions

Before you apply.

How much do walkers earn?

Walks pay £12 for 20 minutes, £16 for 30 and £24 for 60. Home visits pay by type and length, from £8.50 for a 20-minute cat check-in. Paid every week, and you see the pay before you accept.

Do I need professional dog-walking experience?

No. Real experience with your own, family or friends' dogs counts. What matters is that you can show you have looked after dogs well. The application asks about it in detail.

Am I employed or self-employed?

Walkers work on a self-employed basis, so you choose your hours and handle your own tax and National Insurance.

What checks are there?

ID and right to work, a conversation with us, then onboarding in person at our office in Shoreditch before your first walk. We read every application and approve every walker ourselves.

How many dogs do I walk at once?

One. Every Seekies walk is one household’s dogs, on lead, for 20, 30 or 60 minutes.

Is it only dog walking?

Walks come first. Seekies also offers home visits: drop-ins to feed a dog or cat, cat check-ins, and home company for older dogs. Walks pay £12 for 20 minutes, £16 for 30 and £24 for 60. Home visits pay by type and length, from £8.50 for a 20-minute cat check-in. Visits arrive as offers like walks, and you choose which to take. Walkers never take a pet home.

Which areas are you recruiting in?

Clapham, Battersea, Islington, Hackney, Peckham, Bermondsey, Camden and Shoreditch to start. If you are nearby, apply anyway and tell us how far you would travel.
