Dates, times and repeats

  • The time starts at the current hour for today, or 8:00 AM for another day. Tap the time to change it, or choose one of your appointment windows.

  • Repeat books it weekly on the days you choose until an end date.

  • Daycare, boarding, overnight stays and home sitting ask for a start and end date and time instead.

  • If it overlaps another appointment, you'll see a warning, but you can still book it.

Before you save

  • Choose whether your client is notified, using the button at the top.

  • Add travel, a surcharge, a tip or a discount.

  • Choose when it's invoiced: No invoice, When booked or When started.

  • Clients can also request bookings in the Walkies Journal app. You'll find them in Inbox > Requests.

  • You can also tap a day in the Week or Month view to start booking.
