Managing a busy dog walking schedule without proper software means carrying too much in your head, making avoidable mistakes, and spending evenings reorganising your week when it could take minutes.
A spreadsheet works when you have five dogs. At fifteen dogs across a full week with last-minute changes, cancellations, and holiday cover — it becomes a liability rather than a tool.
Generic calendar apps show time slots but know nothing about your dogs, your clients, walk types, group sizes, or pending jobs. You end up cross-referencing three different things just to plan a single day.
Without a proper scheduling system, mistakes creep in — a dog booked twice, a slot forgotten, a staff member scheduled on their holiday. A proper planner makes these impossible.
Pack Planner Pro gives you a full five-day weekly grid. Every walk slot shows the time, the dog, the walk type, and the walker. Pending jobs sit in a panel on the right waiting to be scheduled. Drag them across, drop them in, and your week updates instantly — including the week total.
Monday to Friday, every walk slot visible at once. No scrolling, no switching views. Your whole week on screen — so you can spot gaps, conflicts, and opportunities without digging through anything.
New bookings land in the pending panel on the right. Drag each one across to the right day and time, and it drops into your schedule as a confirmed walk. Nothing gets forgotten, nothing gets lost.
Mark days as unavailable in the planner and they show as blocked across the week. Staff holidays, bank holidays, training days — all managed in one place alongside the live schedule.
Export your schedule as an ICS file and open it in whichever calendar you use. Your walks appear on any device, no cloud account required, no syncing settings to configure.
The weekly planner is the heart of Pack Planner Pro. Around it sits everything else a dog walking business needs — dog records, invoicing, staff management, and calendar export. All included, one price.
See your whole week at a glance. Schedule walks, block holidays, track pending jobs, and assign dogs to walkers. Your entire week under control from one screen.
Every dog, every client, every detail. Vaccination records, vet contacts, behavioural notes, household pricing, emergency contacts. All searchable, all in one place.
Create invoices, track what is paid and what is outstanding, and see your income at a glance. No accountancy software required for the basics of running a dog walking business.
Add walkers, assign dogs, manage holidays and track time off. Send each walker their weekly schedule by email in one click. No per-user fees, no add-ons — included in the one-time price.
Export your walk schedule as an ICS file and open it in Google Calendar, Apple Calendar, or Outlook. Your schedule stays visible on any device without any cloud dependency.
Track session packages across multiple appointments. Perfect if you run behaviour consults alongside walks — or as your primary service. Each package keeps its own progress log.
Jennie runs Jennie's Positive Paws — a working dog walking and behaviour business in the UK. She schedules 25+ walks every week across multiple dogs and clients, with behaviour consult packages running alongside.
She tried managing it with spreadsheets and calendar apps. It worked until it didn't — last-minute changes, pending jobs she hadn't slotted in, staff cover she had forgotten to plan. She needed a proper scheduling tool that understood dog walking, not a generic calendar.
The Pack Planner Pro weekly planner is what she uses every single day. It was designed around a real schedule, for a real business.
Most subscription dog walking apps charge monthly and offer generic scheduling features. Pack Planner Pro is built specifically around the weekly scheduling needs of a real dog walking business.
