Professional/Traditional Dog Walking Business Name Ideas

A professional or traditional dog walking business name can also go a long way to promote a feeling of confidence with potential customers. It is a balance though. You’re not a bank or lawyer, so you can’t be too “stuffy” with your name but there are ways to bend it more towards the professional end of the name spectrum.

Firstly you can simply use words that elicit a feeling of professionalism or high class. So think of words like “elite”, “reliable”, trusted” etc. Work these words into any potential name ideas to easily legitimize the name.

Secondly, you can incorporate traditional business suffixes such as “group”, “services”, “limited”, “ltd”, and “&Co.”. This helps to make the business sound more official and professional.

Some examples of professional and traditional sounding dog walking business name ideas:

Pawsome Petsitters

Dog Walking Business Names That Aren't Taken

You may be worried about re-using a name that someone else has used. Selecting a dog walking business name that isn’t taken is tough, but not impossible. First, you need to decide your criteria.

Are you wanting to select a name that isn’t taken in your local area? Are you wanting to select a name that isn’t taken in your entire country, do you just want to make sure that it isn’t trademarked, or are you wanting the name to be unique across the entire world (not recommended!).

When selecting a dog walking business name that isn’t taken we suggest focusing on the below criteria:

Check that the name you want isn’t taken in your local area.
Check that it isn’t trademarked.

For a local dog walking business, anything more is overkill and too limiting.

Check your dog walking business name isn’t taken locally:

Under the business type below, type in what you want to name your own business. This will then open a Google Maps page and if the business exists close to you, it will be displayed. If not, your name is unique in your local area.

Check the name isn’t trademarked:

Next, make sure that someone else doesn’t have rights to the name. You can use a trademark checker for your country to find out this information.

If you live in a country other than the above, don’t worry. Check the full list of all country trademark checkers/databases to find the trademark checker for the country you live/operate in.

Once you’ve run through both of the checks above, you can rest easy in the knowledge that your chosen dog walking business name is not already taken.

Website Names For Your Dog Walking Business

You should be looking towards getting a simple website set up for your dog walking business. This can be something that you can link to on physical flyers and promotional material. It can be there for information, also for testimonials from customers, an introduction to you and your business, etc. Or you could even take a few steps further and set up an online booking system for dog walking.

You’ll need to check your business name isn’t already taken as a domain name. You can check your domain name on Namecheap or grab the full package of domain name and web hosting package on Ionos.

If you want a less techy alternative, you can get your website set up very quickly with no technical knowledge by using Squarespace. You can actually have your website up and running in minutes with this approach.
