Difference between walks & drop ins?

Binc S.'s profile image

I'm struggling with differentiating between dog walking & drop ins. Should walks include feeding time too? I was thinking that walks should strictly be JUST walks with a water break after and then drop ins would include feedings, medications (as needed,) potty breaks, and cuddle time. How do YOU differentiate between the two & what do you do differently at walks vs drop ins? What's your rate difference between the two?

I charge more for a dog walk.

I state it directly on my profile that a drop in visit is NOT a walk around your neighborhood. I feed your pets, clean a litterbox, give meds and fresh water. Play games, cuddle and/or take pets in the yard to potty and play games WITHOUT taking a walk. Dog walk is a regular 1 mile walk around the neighborhood. I will feed the dogs too if instructed, which means the dog walk will be shorter , depending on how fast your dog eats.
