Terms & Conditions
Ken Walks Dogs LLC will endeavor to offer only sound, safe, and responsible care for your dog(s) and is not responsible for any unintentional errors, omissions, or incorrect assertions.

Payment
• Payment for services is due upon invoicing unless otherwise agreed upon. If payment is on file, it may be charged at the time of invoicing, depending on your payment settings. I understand I may be sent an additional invoice(s) separately for written requests for modification to a previously scheduled service.
• Ken Walks Dogs LLC may end services and terminate this contract if Pet Owner does not pay for services rendered in a timely manner.

Grooming Policy
Ken Walks Dogs LLC will take every measure within reason to keep your dog as clean as possible during and after walks. Client should leave towels near entrance that will be used for wet or muddy weather conditions. Ken Walks Dogs LLC will not be responsible for bathing or brushing dog after walks, with the exception of any bathing or grooming services rendered.

Vet Care
I authorize emergency medical care to be provided by the profile-named veterinarian, or an appropriate alternate to be determined by Ken Walks Dogs LLC in the event that my regular veterinarian is not available, or more immediate care is required. I will reimburse Ken Walks Dogs LLC for any charges related to emergency veterinary care.

Cancellations
There is never a fee to cancel or reschedule any service with a minimum notice of 12 hours. Same-day cancellations or cancellations within a 12-hour window of scheduled services will be charged the base rate of scheduled service. Failure to cancel a scheduled service is considered a "no show" and may be charged in full when service provider has shared an ETA, arrived to check-in location, or has already started service. 

Two-hour Arrival Window
KenWalksDogs.com maintains a minimum two-hour arrival window for scheduled services to allow for potential delays due to traffic, weather, pet safety, emergencies, etc. Precise time requests within an arrival window will be honored to the greatest extent possible, but not necessarily guaranteed.

Referral Discounts
Refer our services to a friend and Ken Walks Dogs LLC will issue a $25 account credit within 90 days of new client's first paid and completed service. There is no limit to the amount of referral credits client can earn. Referral Discount clause is voided in the event of suspected fraud or misuse of promotion.

Walk Details
After each visit, you will receive an emailed report card an in-app push notification containing details of your dog's trip (photos, potty break info, GPS-tracked map, etc.)

 

Walk Requests

Services are confirmed only once you've received a confirmation email or in-app notification on the Ken Walks Dogs app confirming your appointment, and no request for service will be considered confirmed otherwise. 

During business hours, service requests are generally confirmed or denied within 30 minutes of submission.

Walk services will be performed only by licensed, background checked, bonded and insured employees of Ken Walks Dogs LLC. If you have restrictions on which employees may or may not provide services for your dog (example: walked by Ken only; female walkers only; etc.) you absolutely must note this information on your profile and in the customer notes section when submitting service requests. Service restrictions may reduce the likelihood of your service being confirmed, pending the schedule and availability of our dog walkers.

Off-Leash Services
Off-leash services are rendered only on the Pet Owner's enclosed personal property, unless verbally agreed upon otherwise. For pet safety, liability, and insurance purposes, your dog will never be let off-leash for any reason on a walk, with exception for medical emergencies, without your written or verbal consent.

 

Socialization

We may socialize your dog with another compatible dog in the Ken Walks Dogs LLC network only when you've provided written or verbal consent to do so - otherwise, all services are considered private services for your dog(s).  (Sharing a walk with another dog in-network often results in extra adventure time for your dog(s) at no additional charge.)

Dog Bites
Ken Walks Dogs LLC is responsible for reporting any and all dog bites to the proper authorities. Pet owner is responsible for any costs and expenses due to bites.

Weather
As always, your dog's health & safety comes first. Dogs are monitored closely during intense weather. Your dog will remain outdoors while comfortably tolerable for them, but may spend a portion of their service bonding, playing, or spending time indoors, whether in your home, a nearby pet store, etc. All services with a duration greater than 60 minutes are priced to include transportation, and we are generally able to transport dogs to pet-friendly locations like Home Depot, Hobby Lobby, Petsmart, or Lowes for air-conditioned walks during extreme temperatures or heavy rainfall.

Dogs are transported in climate-controlled vehicles with operational door and window locks. Dogs will remain seatbelted during transit.
