FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Are dog walkers in Launceston vetted?
Yes. Every walker passes identity and background checks, and the Protection Plan can contribute up to A$32,000 toward eligible vet costs.
Will I get photos after the walk?
Yes. After every walk the walker sends photos and a short note on how your dog went. The note mentions toilet breaks too.
What if my dog is reactive?
Pick a walker offering solo walks. Mention reactivity, lead habits, and any triggers in your booking request. Walkers confirm before they accept.
Can I book recurring walks?
Yes. Recurring weekday lunchtime walks are the most common Petme booking. Owners who need all-day dog minding often pair the walks with a daycare day at the same sitter's place.
Is there a service fee for owners?
No. Petme charges pet owners 0% service fee. You only pay the walker's rate, and you earn automatic cashback on every completed walk.
How much does a dog walker cost in Launceston?
A 30-minute walk in Launceston costs A$22–A$35. 60-minute walks run A$32–A$50. Solo walks cost more than group walks, and weekend or evening slots may carry a small premium.
How far ahead should I book in Launceston?
Availability outside the capitals is thinner, so give yourself about a week in Launceston and arrange a meet and greet before the first booking. Holiday periods fill up first.
What happens if it is too hot to walk?
Walkers in Launceston shift the time rather than push through it, usually to early morning or after sunset. Footpath temperature is the limit, not air temperature, and they will message you if a walk needs moving.
