COMMON QUESTIONS

• How should I price dog walks vs sit-ins vs overnight stays?

  Most pet-care businesses price each service separately (walks per duration, sit-ins per visit, overnight stays per night) with multipliers for additional pets and weekend or bank-holiday surcharges. The Quotify pet care template handles all three in one form, with conditional questions revealing the right follow-ups for each service.

• How do I price walks for multiple dogs from the same household?

  Add a pet-count question with discounted per-pet pricing: second dog at 50% of the base rate, third at 25%. Most walkers price the first pet at a full rate and discount additional pets because the walking time barely changes. The form totals automatically so owners see the price for the whole pack instantly.

• Should regular bookings get a discount vs ad-hoc walks?

  Yes. Add a frequency question (one-off, weekly, daily) with discounted per-walk rates for regular bookings. The form can quote a single visit or a recurring weekly total, both with one structure. Owners see the price difference and many self-select into a regular slot, which is better for cash flow.

• How do I handle overnight stays and house-sitting?

  Treat them as a separate service type with per-night pricing, plus add-ons for pet count, plant watering, post collection and any medication administration. Owners select what's needed and the form builds the per-night rate from the components. Multi-night bookings can include a small discount on stays of 5+ nights.

• Should I add a meet-and-greet question?

  Yes, but make it optional. New clients often want a free meet-and-greet before committing; existing clients don't. Add a yes/no question that triggers a separate scheduling step, and don't include it in the quote total. Most pet-care businesses include the first meet-and-greet free as standard.
