What this sheet is for
Account for every dog, every key and every incident on the round, and hand a regular dog to a different walker without anything being lost.
Who it is for
Dog walkers, dog day-care collection rounds and anyone walking several owners' dogs in a day.
How to use it
- Fill in the date, walker, vehicle and the phone you are carrying.
- Write each dog in as it is collected, with how you got in and the time.
- Record where it walked, whether solo or in a group, on or off the lead, and what it did.
- Note the return time and whether it was fed or watered as the owner asked.
- Close the round: keys, incidents, dogs you could not walk, mileage and a signature.
What is on the sheet
One page, top to bottom:
Printed under the title: One walker, one day — every dog collected, where it walked, what it did, when it went back and whether the key did too.
The owner's walk, on paper. Lead or off-lead, alone or in a group, how long, feed on return, which dogs it cannot be with — each owner's instructions are theirs, not the sheet's. Write the round so a different walker could do it tomorrow.

Questions
Why is there no walk length or group size on the sheet?
Because each owner decides how long and with whom their dog walks, and the rules for walking several dogs at once differ from place to place. The walk column records what was done for that dog; the owner's instructions are the reference.
Do I need a sheet per day or per dog?
Per day. This is the round, in order, with every dog on it. A dog's own history over time belongs on its owner's records.
