Working Birmingham as a dog-walker
Pretty much every dog-walker call in Birmingham starts the same way: someone in Hall Green or Harborne needs help with bad weather coverage or midday walks when owners work, opens Google on their phone, and calls one of the first three results. That is the entire game.
Across the B postcode area in Birmingham, dog-walkers mostly handle key holding and bad weather coverage. The neighbourhoods we see most dog-walker calls from in Birmingham are Erdington, Edgbaston and Hall Green.
What We Do
When we look at dog-walkers in Birmingham who have gone quiet, the cause is almost always the same one. Their Google Business Profile is half-empty and they are not ranking for the dog-walker keywords Birmingham customers actually use. Six things every month, all of them done by us so you do not need to think about any of it. We run your Google Business Profile properly with weekly photos and posts. We build and host your website on infrastructure that loads in under two seconds on a phone. We set up automatic review requests that fire after every job. We catch your missed calls with an instant text-back so the calls you cannot answer do not vanish. We write four blog posts a month tuned to the searches your customers actually use. And we send a monthly performance report you can read in five minutes.
For dog-walkers in Birmingham, the search terms that matter are not "dog-walker" on its own. The buying-intent searches are urgent variations like "bad weather coverage" and "midday walks when owners work". We target those exact phrases on your Google profile and on the dog-walker pages of your site.
If you cover key holding and bad weather coverage as a dog-walker, your customers are searching for those exact words on Google before they call anyone. Dog Walkers who match those phrases on their Google listing pick up the calls before the competitors do.
Why Dog Walkers Lose Calls Around Here
Dog Walkers in Birmingham are competing with 100-200 other listings for the same calls. Here is what separates the busy dog-walkers from the ones whose phones have gone quiet. Most owners blame the economy when their phone goes quiet. The actual cause is almost always the same: a competitor with a better Google listing has taken your spot in the local 3-pack. That's it. That's the fix.
Real Clients We Already Run
When we look at dog-walkers in Birmingham who have gone quiet, the cause is almost always the same one. Their Google Business Profile is half-empty and they are not ranking for the dog-walker keywords Birmingham customers actually use. Right now we run online presence for seven UK businesses: plumbers in Pontyclun, Nottingham and Cheshunt, a heating engineer in Liverpool, another near Battle, a paving company in Staines, and a bathroom fitter in Blackpool. Real businesses, real card payments every month.

The Three Things That Move the Needle
Local SEO and Google Business Profile
SEO done properly: we research the search terms your customers actually use (not the ones an SEO tool says you should target), optimise your site and Google profile for those terms, and check rankings every week so we can adjust if something stops working.
Missed-Call Text-Back
The maths on missed-call text-back is simple: most callers do not leave a voicemail, but most do read text messages. So the auto-text catches the calls voicemail loses. For an average UK trade that is 10-15 saved calls a week.
Review Automation
The automation only asks customers we know are happy (most clients filter by job type before we send the trigger). If a customer was unhappy, we route them to a private feedback form instead so the public listing only collects positives.

Frequently Asked
What does it actually cost?
All in: £199 setup (one-off, covers the website, yours to keep) and £199 a month for everything else. We do not do tiered pricing or upsells. That is the price.
What do you actually do every month?
We replace four jobs you would normally pay separately for: web designer (£2k-5k one-off), SEO agency (£500-1,500/month), review automation app (£40-100/month), and missed-call answering service (£50-150/month). All bundled into one price.
Do I need to do anything technical?
No. You do not need to do anything technical at any point. We handle the website, the Google profile, the SEO, the reviews, all of it. The only thing we ask for is information about your business and a few photos if you have them.
What if I already have a website?
Fine. We will migrate it over. The domain stays in your name. The content comes with it. The bits that work, we keep. The bits that do not, we replace.
How long until I see results?
Truthfully, we cannot put a number on it because every business is different. What we can tell you is what happened with our existing clients: most started seeing extra calls from Google within four to six weeks and meaningful ranking improvements by month three.
Can I cancel?
Three months is the minimum because that is how long it takes to do meaningful SEO work. After that you can leave whenever you want. Website yours, domain yours, no exit fees.
