Licence rules for paid walkers

Walking dogs as a business in Wellington needs a commercial dog walking licence from the council. You submit an application form, pay the fee, and attend and pass an assessment. In a Hutt City listing the fee was NZ$160 for an individual licence, NZ$80 with the certified discount, and NZ$300 for a company with three licences. The rule is aimed at people who walk dogs commercially, so ask any walker whether they hold one.

Season and weather

October is spring in New Zealand. Summer runs from December to February, when afternoons can be hot, so agree on early or evening walks in your request. Winter from June to August brings shorter days, so set a walk time that fits the daylight. Ask how the schedule changes with the season, since a regular walker will want to plan that in advance.

How walks are priced and bought

Prices are quoted per walk, per hour, per week in a package, or per night for dog sitting. Packages lower the price per walk: in one Auckland listing, one walk a week was NZ$58 each, while four to five a week came to NZ$49.50 each. State your city, whether it is Auckland, Wellington, Christchurch, Hamilton or Tauranga, and whether the walker needs keys or a key safe, since access affects how the visit works.

What to write in your request

Give the walking schedule, the walk length, your dog's breed and size, its temperament with other dogs and people, the district, key or access arrangements, any extras such as feeding or towelling off, and your budget. A walker who knows these details can quote without a long back-and-forth.
