For all the people who use Rover to find their favourite pet carer, you might find increased pricing by walkers as 'the company owned by Blackrock - Asset Managment Company' has increased their fees, walkers have to pay, by a whooping 5%.
Walkers now pay a 25% fee, as well as owners have to pay their fee and rate.
Your carer pays for insurance, fuel, business license, taxes, etc and the company skims off 25%.
It is pretty discouraging.
If you trust your pet carer, they have insurance and a good reputation, you might be better off booking directly with them, as they keep their money and you will get a better rate.
