Why most dog walkers miss out
App-based competitors (Rover, Wag) dominate every generic search — independent walkers need hyper-local positioning to win direct clients.
Recurring vs. vacation-only sits are different services with different buyers — most walkers blend them and lose both.
Trust signals (insurance, bonding, references) decide every client choice but most walker GBPs don't surface them.
Our playbook for dog walkers in Jacksonville
