Appointment scheduling system for dog walkers
Allow pet owners to schedule a time at your park that works for them, and for you. Get appointments for your park without you having to do anything!
The appointment scheduler to run your park with ease
Always open for scheduling
Let your pet owners schedule appointments based on the business hours of your park. Share your Vev link on social media or your website to let your pet owners easily book their next walk.
- Share your unique link
- Let pet owners self-schedule
- Your park is open 24/7
The friendliest appointment tool
Vev is easy to work with. See appointments roll in from your dashboard or your favorite calendar app. Adjust the availability of your park as needed, to let pet owners self-schedule freely.
- Appointments appear in your dashboard
- Integrate with your calendar
- Your agenda always up-to-date
Smart scheduling built-in
After a few appointments, Vev gets in tune with your pet owners’ preferences. If they always prefer Thursdays at 4, we’ll keep proposing that slot for their next walk.
- Vev remembers each pet owner
- Automatically proposes the best time
- That is called frictionless scheduling
Vev is very intuitive and simple! It helps me greatly to avoid chaos.
Simple appointment scheduling for all
A scheduling tool to fall in love with
Right from your scheduling page, pet owners see exactly when you have availability. They can not only book their slot, but also opt for any additional walks you offer. Minimize missed appointments by asking for a (small) upfront deposit, or full payment.
Our goals is to let you focus on your talent. Vev will take care of everything else for you. From your website, communication, reminders, payments and a lot more. Every week we ship new features that will make your work easier.
Automated communications
After booking, pet owners receive a confirmation email. Depending on your settings, they can modify or cancel their booking online. Pet owners will also get a reminder email ahead of their appointment, and a thank-you email post-appointment. Encouraging them to schedule another appointment at your park.
Seamless calendar integration
While appointments are managed on Vev, you can also sync them with your preferred calendar tool. Ensuring you’re always up to date, and easily see your park and personal appointments from one place.

Redefining a scheduling tool
Streamline your business
Pet owners only see the days and time slots you have available. Set standard opening hours for your park once, and adjust them as needed. This way, no pet owner can schedule appointments beyond the availability of your park.
Flexible breaks are 10/10
As a park owner, you might be okay with a slightly delayed lunch. Vev allows you to set up breaks that happen within, let’s say 12p and 2p. Giving pet owners maximum flexibility to schedule something, while not forgetting about lunch for the dog walkers.
Personal time blocks
Life is unpredictable. With “Me Time”, you can instantly block out slots on any day. No matter if it’s for an attend or an impromptu day off without any walks.

Enhance scheduling with digital payments
Hassle-free payments
Just like the big apps and parks out there, you can accept payments to confirm appointments. Once a slot is chosen, your pet owners have 30 minutes to finalize their payment. Adjusting or refunding is straightforward.
It's your park so you decide how and when you get paid. Vev enables full payments ahead of time, deposits and getting paid on the spot. It's your new payment terminal, plus a lot more.
No additional hardware is required
Whether it’s your phone, tablet, or computer, that’s all you need. Your pet owners quickly scan a QR code for on-the-spot payments, completing the process from the comfort of their own device. No more hassle to pay for walks.
Payments are flexible by design
From the payment settings, choose whether pet owners of your park pay a deposit (fixed or percentage-based) or the full amount. If you prefer offline payments, that's possible too. Just mark the appointment as 'Paid' manually after a pet owner has paid for their walks.
In case you missed anything.
Is Vev’s appointment scheduler for dog walkers really free?
Yes, the standard version of Vev is free to use. The reason? We want to enable every dog walker to start their own park, leveling the playing field between dog walkers.
As your park grows, you should unlock Vev+. It’s a no-brainer for business owners that wanna keep their admin work to a minimum. Vev+ generates automatic tax reports, gives you access to advanced pet owner data, and overall ups the way your online page looks like
No hard feelings if you are not ready to pay; the standard version of Vev is always at your disposal for free.
Can anyone start a park with Vev?
Absolutely! Vev encourages everyone to follow their dreams and start their dream park.
The only thing you need to get things going is a name for your park, then you choose the template that best suits your use case, adjust some settings and you are ready to welcome your first appointments.
To help you even more, every template comes with a default price list you can edit the best way you see fit. Finally, set your business colors and upload a logo to make your park page even more uniquely yours.
Chase that dream!
Can I use Vev’s appointment scheduler for dog walkers everywhere?
For sure! To quote Jennifer Lopez: “Brazil, Morocco, London to Ibiza. Straight to LA, New York, Vegas to Africa”. Our way of saying; no matter where your park is on the planet, you can always count on Vev. Right now, we support over 10 languages (with more to come) and over 100 currencies.
What information is needed to schedule an appointment?
That depends slightly. When an dog walker plans an appointment from their dashboard, only the pet owner's name is needed. Nothing more.
When a pet owner books an appointment with your park from your online page, they must fill in their name and email address. Both phone number and address are optional fields.
What happens once a walk is scheduled?
No matter whether you or one of your pet owners scheduled the appointment, the chosen time slot is blocked from that moment onwards. It will also appear in your park calendar.
At the same time, an email will be sent to both you and the pet owner about the upcoming appointment. In addition, another reminder mail will go out just before the walk.
Can an appointment be rescheduled or canceled once it has been made?
Yes, both you and the pet owner can do both of these things. However, you as the dog walker remains in control, deciding exactly until when pet owners can reschedule or cancel.
No park wants pet owners canceling just 5 minutes before their appointment.
What do I need to get started with my park?
You only need an email address, a password, and a name for your park. Nothing is forever, you can change everything later. Do make sure to comply with local regulations for dog walkers. Check whether you need a license or register with a Chamber of Commerce before getting your first appointments.
