- Transport — group walks that drive dogs to a secure field or woodland charge for the van time
- Region — group dog walking in London and the South East costs more than in the North

How to pay less
- Book group dog walking on several days a week, which often brings a lower rate per walk
- Choose a local group walk rather than one that drives to a distant field
- Ask whether a second dog from the same home joins the group at a reduced price
Before you book
- Ask how many dogs walk together, as some councils limit the number one person can walk
- Check the walker's insurance covers group walks and transporting dogs in a vehicle
- Check your dog is microchipped and wears a collar and tag on every group walk
- Arrange a meet-and-greet so the walker can check your dog suits the group
Group Dog Walking cost: questions people ask
£8–£15 per walk, about £11 on average. A local group walk outside the cities costs the least; a walk that includes van travel to a secure field in London costs the most.
Around an hour of walking, plus time for pickups and drop-offs. Your dog may be out of the house for longer than the walk itself.
In some areas, yes. In England and Wales, councils can use public spaces protection orders to cap the number of dogs walked by one person, so ask your walker how they keep within local rules.
No. Nervous, reactive or very young dogs often do better on solo walks, and a good walker will say so after meeting your dog.
Solo walks, day care, feeding visits and overnight care are priced on their own.
