Cancellation Policy
We understand that plans can change and that sometimes things happen that are outside your control. This policy sets out how cancellations and changes to bookings are handled.
Last updated: October 2026
Cancelling or changing a booking
Please let Paws & Play know as soon as possible if you need to cancel or change a booking.
Cancellation charges are based on the amount of notice given:
- 48 hours or more: No cancellation charge
- 24 to 48 hours: 50% of the booking price
- Less than 24 hours: 100% of the booking price
These cancellation periods apply to all Paws & Play services, including dog walks, pet visits, pet sitting, pet taxi and wedding dog chaperone bookings.
Genuine emergencies
We understand that genuine emergencies can happen unexpectedly. Where a cancellation is due to a genuine emergency or serious unforeseen circumstances, no cancellation charge will apply, regardless of how much notice is given.
We will always aim to handle these situations reasonably and fairly.
Changes to bookings
If you need to change the date, time or type of service you've booked, please contact us as soon as possible.
We will always do our best to accommodate changes, subject to availability. If a change is made at short notice and we are unable to fill the original booking, the cancellation charges above may apply.
If Paws & Play needs to cancel
Occasionally, we may need to cancel or change a booking due to illness, an emergency, unsafe weather conditions or circumstances outside our reasonable control.
If this happens, we will let you know as soon as possible and discuss the available options. You will not be charged for a service that Paws & Play has cancelled.
Refunds
Where a refund is due, it will be made using the original payment method where possible.
