Provider Spotlight: Sarah the Dog Walker

Storgo Team·July 5, 2026

Provider Spotlight: Sarah


When Sarah started walking dogs on weekends three years ago, she had six clients and a dream of turning her passion into a career. Today, she runs a thriving dog-walking business in Austin, Texas — fully booked six weeks in advance.


How She Got Started


"I'd always worked in tech, but I was miserable," Sarah says. "I started walking a neighbour's Labrador as a favour, and within a month, three more families had asked me." She joined Storgo in early 2023 and went full-time by June.


What Storgo Changed


Before Storgo, Sarah spent hours each week on admin — chasing payments, scheduling via text, and manually sending update photos. "The platform handles all of it. I just show up and walk the dogs."


Her Storgo profile now has 147 five-star reviews and a repeat-client rate of 89%.


Her Advice to New Providers


  • Fill out your profile completely — photos and certifications matter.
  • Respond to inquiries within the hour. Speed builds trust.
  • Send update photos during every walk. Clients love it.
  • Ask happy clients to leave reviews. Most will if you ask nicely.
