Leeds: Why Google Decides Who Gets the Calls
We see clear patterns in Leeds: most calls for dog-walkers come from people in Horsforth, Meanwood, and customers who searched for 'dog-walker near Bradford' or 'dog-walker in Horsforth'. The trades that target those exact searches get most of the work.
Across the LS postcode area in Leeds, dog-walkers mostly handle bad weather coverage and trust and insurance. The neighbourhoods we see most dog-walker calls from in Leeds are Wetherby, Meanwood and Chapel Allerton.
How Local SEO Actually Works for You
For dog-walkers working Leeds (especially around Horsforth and Meanwood), this is the unflattering bit nobody warns dog-walker owners about. Most dog-walkers in Leeds are invisible for the urgent searches that bring jobs. Not a DIY platform. Not a course. Not a coaching call. We do all of it for you. Website, Google profile, reviews, SEO, missed-call recovery, monthly report. Done.
Dog Walkers working Leeds get a slightly different setup than other trades. We focus the keyword targeting on the urgent dog-walker searches (the ones with words like "key holding" and "midday walks when owners work"). We structure the dog-walker website so the phone number is always visible.
Bread-and-butter jobs for dog-walkers: trust and insurance, bad weather coverage, key holding. The customers searching for a dog-walker are usually working professionals who need midday dog walks, elderly dog owners, holiday cover, and they Google before they call.
What Most Local Owners Get Wrong
For dog-walkers working Leeds (especially around Horsforth and Meanwood), this is the unflattering bit nobody warns dog-walker owners about. Most dog-walkers in Leeds are invisible for the urgent searches that bring jobs. The thing nobody tells you when you start a trade is that being good at the work is about a third of the battle. The other two thirds are getting found and not letting calls go to voicemail. We help with both.
Real Clients We Already Run
Dog Walkers in Leeds 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. We do not have testimonials. We have card payments. Seven of them every month, all from real UK trades businesses you can find on Google. The mix is plumbers in three towns, heating engineers in two more, a paving firm in Staines, and a bathroom fitter in Blackpool.

If you want to know whether any of this would actually work for your business, the fastest answer is a free audit. We pull your Google listing, look at your site, check who's ranking above you locally, and tell you what we'd fix. No sales pitch attached. No commitment.
The Three Things That Move the Needle
Local SEO and Google Business Profile
Our SEO work is opinionated. We do not chase every algorithm update. We focus on the things that have moved local rankings for the last decade: relevance to the search term, prominence (reviews and citations), and proximity to the searcher. Everything else is noise.
Missed-Call Text-Back
Without this, missed calls are just gone. Voicemail catches almost nothing in 2026 (most people do not leave them anymore). The text-back is the only way to recover that traffic.
Review Automation
We integrate the reviews automation with whatever system you use to track jobs. Could be a job sheet, could be Google Calendar, could be a quick text from you. The trigger is flexible. The reply text is the same.
What It Costs
There is no setup fee on top of the website. The website costs £199 once, that is the setup. Then it is £199 a month for the management. Less than £6.70 a day.

Frequently Asked
What does it actually cost?
£199 setup, £199 per month. No surprise fees, no annual contract. Less than £6.70 a day. One job from Google pays for the month.
What do you actually do every month?
We sort your Google Business Profile so it actually appears when locals search. We build you a website that loads fast on a phone. We get reviews coming in automatically after every job. We text customers back when you miss a call. And we send you a monthly report that shows what changed.
Do I need to do anything technical?
No tech skills needed. We built this for trades and small business owners who do not want to mess with WordPress or Wix or Google Search Console. We do all of that. You run your business.
What if I already have a website?
No problem. We can keep your existing site and improve it, or rebuild it from scratch, your call. Your domain stays the same. Your old URLs keep working. Nothing breaks for your existing customers.
How long until I see results?
We cannot promise specific numbers because nobody honest can. What we can promise is that the work gets done every week, you get a real monthly report, and most clients see their first new enquiry from Google within four to six weeks.
Can I cancel?
Three months in, then cancel any time. The website is yours forever. We hand over the domain and the codebase if you want them, or we leave the site running and just stop the management work.
