Built for Property Managers & Concierges
Dog Walking Scheduling Software for Apartment Buildings
Managing 40+ resident dogs across a luxury high-rise shouldn't live in a spreadsheet or a group chat. PawRise automates every step — from resident requests to walker assignments to pickup notifications — so your front desk handles zero dog-walking coordination.
Why generic scheduling tools fail apartment buildings
Most dog walking scheduling software is designed for independent pet sitters or small walking businesses — not for a 300-unit high-rise with 80 dogs, two service elevators, and a concierge team managing it all. Generic tools give you a calendar. They don't give you building intelligence.
The result: your concierge fields texts from 40 residents every morning, hand-keys them into a shared spreadsheet, and calls walkers one by one to confirm time slots. When a resident changes their walk time at 7 AM, it triggers a cascade of calls. When two walkers show up for the same dog, someone gets an angry email.
PawRise was built specifically to solve the apartment-building version of this problem. It understands floors, elevator windows, unit clusters, and multi-walker coordination — things no general-purpose scheduling app was designed for.
Everything a residential building needs to run dog walking at scale
One platform. Zero spreadsheets. Works with your existing walkers.
Resident Self-Service Scheduling
Residents request walks directly from their phones — no texts to the front desk, no sticky notes. Requests flow into a single building-wide queue your concierge controls.
Walker Assignment & Routing
Assign walkers to time slots and floors automatically. PawRise respects elevator capacity and unit proximity so walkers complete routes efficiently — no wasted trips.
Automated Resident Notifications
Residents get SMS and push confirmations at pickup, mid-walk, and return — without your staff sending a single message. Complaints about 'no one told me' disappear.
Property Manager Dashboard
One view of every dog, every walker, every time slot across the whole building — with logs your leasing team can share with residents when issues arise.

How PawRise works for your building
- 1
Residents request walks from the PawRise app
Each resident has a simple mobile interface to schedule recurring or one-off walks. No more texts to the lobby — requests land directly in the management console.
- 2
Your concierge reviews and approves the day's schedule
The console groups requests by floor and time window, flags conflicts, and suggests an optimized walker route. Approval takes two minutes, not twenty.
- 3
Walkers get their assignments on mobile
Each walker sees exactly which units to visit, in which order, and any special notes (gate codes, dog behavior flags). No phone tag.
- 4
Residents are notified at every step
Pickup confirmation, mid-walk status, and return notification go out automatically. Your staff never touches a notification manually.
Frequently asked questions
How is PawRise different from general dog walking apps like Rover or Wag?
Consumer apps like Rover connect individual pet owners with freelance walkers. PawRise is built for the building — it gives property managers and concierges a control layer over multiple walkers, multiple residents, and building-specific logistics like elevator schedules and service entrances. One dashboard for all of it.
Can our building use its own existing dog walking vendor?
Yes. PawRise is software, not a staffing service. You bring your own walkers (whether in-house staff or a vendor you already trust) and PawRise handles the scheduling, routing, and communications layer on top.
How long does setup take?
Most buildings are fully configured in under a day. We handle onboarding, import your resident list, and train your concierge team. Our pilot program runs at no cost so you can prove value before committing.
What building types does PawRise work for?
PawRise is purpose-built for high-density residential — luxury high-rises, mid-rise apartment communities, and mixed-use buildings with significant pet populations. It works equally well for buildings with 80 units or 800.
