Why StarPaw

Own your operation — not a cut of it

sell

Pricing from $19.99/mo

Free during the beta, then a monthly price — never a cut of what you earn. AI is optional and included with every plan; any use beyond that is billed at cost, never marked up.

handshake

Your client relationships

Owners are yours — their dogs, their contacts, their history live in your account, not a marketplace's.

photo_library

Your photos stay yours

Every walk photo, note, and ledger entry is yours to keep and export. No lock-in.

link_off

Out of the gig economy

No marketplace ranking you, no algorithm racing your rates to the bottom. You set your own prices and run the business — the app just keeps up.

Who we are

Developers who walk dogs

StarPaw is built by software developers who are also working dog walkers. We didn't guess at the day-to-day — we live it. Every feature comes from real routes, real clients, and real muddy mornings, made by people who understand the work from the ground up.
