Dog walking software for pack walkers, doggy daycare and van pickup routes, built by a working dog walking business in Cromwell, New Zealand.
BarkBus runs a dog walking day from the van, not a spreadsheet. The driver works mostly from the lock-screen widget: next dog, stop number, gate code, Picked Up or Missing. Maps pin every stop with the dog's photo and optimise the route, with turn-by-turn inside the app.
The office side sets up the week: roster, schedule, packs and van assignments. Owners get an app of their own for pickup pings, absences, homestay requests and bookings. Paste a client message and the AI assistant drafts the booking.
Billing is automatic: every pickup becomes a charge on the owner's account, and in New Zealand a live bank feed brings payments in and matches them. Homestays are booked once and every screen updates.
Pricing from NZ$29/month for one van, NZ$59 for two, NZ$99 for three or more. Every plan has every feature and unlimited driver logins. First month free, no card.
Built in Cromwell, New Zealand by Tim and Lu, who run their own dog walking business on it.
