What is Walkie Co. about?
Walkie is the one stop solution for dog owners.
Through the Walkie app, users can book a dog walker just as easy as they book everything else over their mobile phone.
Walkie offers on-demand bookings (within 60 minutes) and for those who rather plan ahead pre-bookings too. The booking process is 100% transparent, users can track the walk through live GPS tracking, see what their beloved dog is up to thanks to live updates and pay securely over the phone. To ensure high quality and security users can rate the Walkers (so called Walkies) through the app, call the Walkie team at any time and communicate through the in app call / messaging system.
Soon Walkie will offer more services such as dog boarding and dog sitting too.
About the founder:
Walkie was founded by Lisa (26). Lisa completed her Bachelor and Master degree with a Marketing focus in London and lived abroad for many years.
She returned to Germany motivated and inspired by the service industry to start Walkie.
She obviously grew up with dogs and finally could combine her passion with a sustainable business model.
