Casey Field, 2025

Stop treating it like a hobby. Start running it like a business. Everyone thinks dog walking is easy money. They imagine sunny days, happy puppies, and cash in their pockets. They don't picture the reality: aggressive dogs, sleet storms, difficult clients, and the overwhelming panic of a lost animal. The barrier to entry in the pet industry is low, but the burnout rate is sky-high. To survive—and thrive—you need more than a love for dogs. You need a battle-tested plan. The Professional Dog Walker's Handbook is not a collection of generic advice. It is a tactical manual written by an industry veteran who has walked the miles, scooped the mess, and built a six-figure route from scratch. Inside, you will learn how to: Legally Bulletproof Your Business: Why an LLC is non-negotiable and the specific insurance clauses ("Care, Custody, and Control") that save you from bankruptcy. Master the Math of Pricing: Stop guessing. Learn how to calculate your "Burn Rate" and enforce the "5-Mile Rule" to maximize profit per hour. Handle the "Nightmare" Scenarios: Step-by-step protocols for breaking up dog fights, handling off-leash aggressors, and managing medical emergencies like Bloat and Heatstroke. Dominate Your Neighborhood: The "Visual Echo" marketing strategy that gets you your first 10 clients without spending a fortune on ads. Scale Without Burnout: How to transition from a solo walker to an employer, avoiding the deadly "Independent Contractor" tax trap. Whether you are looking for a recession-resistant side hustle or building a full-time enterprise, this book gives you the systems, the scripts, and the safety protocols you need to succeed. Put down the retractable leash. It's time to go pro.
