Less than 24 hours' notice including same-day - full visit fee applies.
Genuine Emergencies (such as illness or vet visits) will always be handled with understanding.
The reason we have this policy is because last-minute cancellations mean we can’t usually fill the slot with another client, which has an impact on our schedule and income.
Pawcation Cancels:
If the Pawcation cancels due to unforeseen circumstances, no charge applies, and an alternative time or date may be offered.
Weather & Walks:
We will walk dogs in all weathers, except in extreme conditions like storms, lightning, or temperatures above 24 degrees Celsius/75 degrees Fahrenheit, unless you tell us not to.

Rain or Shine: Walks go ahead unless it is unsafe or you request otherwise.

Towels: Please provide towels for your dog for wet walks.
