Having a dog is a very big responsibility. Some compare it to having a small child and it is not for less, since the owner of the dog must be aware of buying his food, bathing him, deworming him and walking him.
Man’s best friend requires care that perhaps, due to time issues, not all owners can give. However, you should not feel completely bad about that, since you are not a bad owner for not having the time you would like.
To make things easier for dog owners, countless applications have come out that professional walkers get, so that you can leave your dog in the care of a person who will be in charge of walking it and when you get home, you can see your happy pet.
These applications are becoming extremely popular as they provide timeless help for dog owners and, in turn, financial aid for walkers.
Among the most prominent and popular applications we find DoogyGo . Without a doubt, the best alternative to get a walker for your dog, however, in the following article we will mention some apps to find dog walkers.
DoggyGo
The DoggyGo application is available for all Android devices. It is completely free and it is very light. After downloading it, you will have to allow the application to access the GPS to recognize your location.
This app works in a similar way to Uber and the Glovo app , but with dog walkers, where it shows users who are closest to you.
DoggyGo offers you the possibility to register as a pet owner or as a pet sitter. If you are a pet owner, you can get all the available walkers that are closest to you.
Register as a walker
For your part, if you are a walker, you will be able to see all registered pet owners who will be able to request your service. Caregivers will have a profile where their data will appear , including profile photo, name, phone number and a description about it.
You also have the possibility to select a search range that will show you all available users according to the established parameters. Each pet owner sets the price they will pay for the care of their pet. If the walker is interested, he will have to give the option to contact.
Finally, contacting an owner will open a chat in which they can agree to take the dog walk. Once this is finished, the owner will be able to rate the tour and it will also be added to your history as a walker.
Register as a pet owner
