Dog walking in City Centre

A dog in City Centre that misses its midday walk gets restless, and a tired owner stuck at work cannot always get home in time. Petme connects you with local York walkers who fit a real walk into your dog's day, share photos when they are done, and learn your dog's pace and habits over time.

Every walker is ID-verified and reviewed by other York owners, and every booking carries up to £17,000 in vet cover for eligible incidents during the walk. Set a meet and greet through the app first so you and your dog meet the walker before anything is booked.

FAQ

Dog walking in City Centre: common questions

How much does a dog walker cost in York?

A single walk in York usually runs £12 to £19, with regular weekday slots often discounted. Rates depend on walk length, the walker's experience and whether it is a solo or group walk. You see each City Centre walker's price before you book on Petme.

Can I book the same walker for City Centre every day?

Yes. Most owners in City Centre book one walker for a recurring weekday slot so the dog sees the same familiar person. You arrange the schedule directly with that walker in the app and can keep it running week to week.

Will I get updates after each walk in City Centre?

Yes. City Centre walkers send a photo and a short note after every walk so you know your dog was picked up, exercised and dropped home safely. Every booking also includes up to £17,000 in vet protection.
