Hastings and St Leonards dog walking: work for yourself, three places open
Hills are the first thing a Hastings dog walker learns about.
East Hill and West Hill, the Old Town, the steep twittens and the paths into Hastings Country Park will keep any walker fit.
Woof Walk, a UK app where owners find, book and pay local walkers, is looking for three self-employed people to walk dogs across Hastings and St Leonards.
Think of it as running a very small business.
We pay no wage and promise no bookings; there is no guaranteed income at all.
You decide your rates, your working days and your territory, which might be Ore, Hollington, Silverhill, the Marline Valley or the seafront at St Leonards.
Payments come from the owner through the app and into your bank.
Roughly 200 Woof Walk listings in October 2026 priced an hour's solo walk between £12 and £28, and £18 was the most frequent price. Treat that as a signpost only.
Commission: none to join, none for 14 days, then 15% of each booking until five of your own clients have signed up.
From then on it is 10%.
Any client you introduce yourself is on 10% from the start.
Tax and National Insurance are settled by you with HMRC, and insurance cover is also on your side of the table.
You must be over 18 and ready to meet each owner and dog before the first booking.
If you walk dogs in the area already, your clients can come with you.
Reliable and punctual. Confident and calm handling dogs of different sizes. Good communication with clients. A smartphone to use the app.
