Summary

A Boston dog owner asked a local group for a walker in the last fortnight and WoofWalk had nobody within twenty-five kilometres. WoofWalk is a UK app where owners book and pay local walkers, and we would like up to three self-employed walkers for Boston, Wyberton, Skirbeck, Fishtoft and Kirton, with Central Park, the Haven bank, Boston Woods and the sea bank at Frampton for the walks.

No wage, no guaranteed bookings: this is your own small walking business, run through the app. You pick the prices, the days and the ground you cover. Owners book and pay in the app and the fee is paid to your bank.

For reference, some 200 WoofWalk listings in October 2026 set an hour's solo walk at between £12 and £28, with £18 the midpoint. Those are other walkers' prices, not pay.

The money side: it is free to join and there is no commission on your first 14 days. After that WoofWalk takes 15% of each booking, becoming 10% permanently once five of your own clients have joined. Clients you bring in yourself pay 10% from their first booking. Tax, National Insurance and insurance remain your own.

Give us your patch, your days and your price and we will draft a profile for you to approve. If you already walk dogs around Boston, your clients can join you there, with bookings, payments and GPS-tracked walks together in one app.

Over 18, fine with fenland wind, and willing to meet each owner and dog first. Apply through Find a Job and say which side of town you cover.
