Software for dog walking business owners
A regular weekday visit and an occasional walk for a client away from home need clear arrangements. Microtra keeps general client, appointment and invoicing records together, while care instructions, safe handling, access controls and route planning remain with the appropriate systems and professional process.
Unleash your potential.
The everyday details
Collection arrangements and the approved contact need confirming before the walker arrives. Keep sensitive keys, codes and permissions within your controlled access procedure rather than treating an ordinary shared business note as secure storage.
An extra household request, another pickup or a changed visit arrangement may alter what was agreed. Discuss the scope directly so friendly help does not silently turn into a recurring commitment the owner has never priced.
Regular visits can change around a client's travel or the walker's availability. A routine arrangement is easier to manage when the owner records the appointments actually agreed instead of depending on memory or an old message.
Transport, replacement equipment and business purchases contribute to the service cost. Reviewing them alongside invoice records gives the owner a clearer picture than the number of walks completed without their supporting expenses.
How Microtra helps
Use the tools that fit your day, with your records ready on your phone or on the web.
Save Client contacts, billing preferences and practical job notes with estimates, invoices and payment history. Other uses Job and Client. It does not start with linked pet records; enable linked records in Modules & terms before using that general module.
Explore this featureCreate job appointments and assign staff for the work you accept. Plan repeat visits yourself and confirm changes through your normal channel. Microtra does not provide route optimization or GPS tracking for walks.
Explore this featureUse saved items and clear descriptions for the service and approved extras. Check quantities against the visits supplied, then share an invoice PDF from your device and record payment already received through your existing method.
Explore this featureRecord work time and enter expenses with receipt photos for business costs. Microtra does not verify walk duration or animal care through location tracking; the entries are the general business records you and your staff maintain.
Explore this featureA day in the life
Use your professional intake to settle suitability, handling and permissions. Separately confirm the commercial service and client contact, keeping sensitive care and access information in the appropriate controlled records.
Add the agreed appointment with the relevant staff and practical description. Check the day's plan through your own care and travel process, confirming directly with the client when a regular arrangement changes.
If the client asks for another service or changes the collection arrangement, discuss the business effect and update the scope. Continue to make care and safety decisions through your qualified professional procedures.
Review visits, approved additions and recorded costs before preparing the invoice. Share its PDF, record money received elsewhere and enter the next agreed appointments yourself, leaving detailed care reporting within your established workflow.

Microtra does not provide GPS tracking, live walk maps or specialist walk verification. Use suitable separate software where those services are part of your offer, and keep the app's general business records distinct from that evidence.
Arrange recurring visits yourself and enter the appointments agreed with the client. Review changes deliberately, including access and staff availability. Automatic service reminders are coming soon.
The Other setup begins without linked records and does not provide a specialist dog walking care profile. Maintain animal health, handling and authorization records through an appropriate professional system rather than ordinary invoice or job notes.
Use your own costs, available working time, overhead and required margin to build a pricing method. The linked dog walking pricing guide explains that approach; an app item price should reflect your considered agreement rather than an assumed market rate.
