Cape Town permits and park rules

Cape Town's animal by-law requires every resident who keeps a dog older than six months to apply for a municipal permit and pay the prescribed fee. Walking in Table Mountain National Park needs its own annual Dog Walking Permit in the designated areas, so check it before taking a dog there. Dog licence fees are set by each municipality, so ask what applies where you live.

Summer heat and winter schedules

South Africa's seasons are the reverse of Europe's: October is spring, summer runs from December to February, and winter from June to August. Ask a walker how they plan walks in the summer heat and whether the schedule changes in winter. If you are booking for the December holidays, send the request early.

How walks are priced and booked here

Walkers quote per visit, per dog or per hour, so say how many dogs you have and how big they are. Johannesburg, Cape Town, Durban, Pretoria and Gqeberha are the main cities for walks, so give your suburb in the request. Ask whether key collection or drop-off costs extra; one provider lists it at R 255.

What to put in your request

Give the walking schedule, how long each walk should be, and whether you want one walk or two a day. Describe your dog's breed, size and temperament, and whether it gets on with other dogs. Add the district, how the walker gets in (keys or access), any extras, and your budget in rand per walk.

On BlaBlaPrice, describe your dog and the walks in your own words in a chat, and you can add a photo. It is free for buyers. BlaBlaPrice's AI asks for missing details and looks through sellers' websites and price lists in South Africa, then shows the prices and dog walkers it finds. Registered sellers receive your request and reply in the chat with their own offer and terms, and your contact details stay hidden until you choose whom to contact.
