Terms of Use
These Terms of Use ("Terms") govern your access to the Leo Dogwalk website and your relationship with us when you inquire about or receive independent dog walking and related pet care services in Alpharetta, Georgia ("Services"). By using our website or booking Services, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the site or Services.
1. Who we are
"Leo Dogwalk," "we," "us," and "our" refer to the independent dog walking service operating as Leo Dogwalk in Alpharetta, GA. You are the "client" or "you."
2. The Services
We offer private dog walking and related visits (such as potty breaks) as described on our website and as confirmed in writing (email, message, or agreed schedule). Services are provided in our published service area unless we agree otherwise. Exact timing, duration, and fees for a given visit or package are confirmed when you book—not all details on the website apply to every situation.
3. Eligibility and accurate information
You represent that:
- You are at least 18 years old and have authority to book care for the dog(s) involved;
- All information you provide about yourself, your home access, and your dog (health, behavior, allergies, medications, vaccination status, and temperament) is accurate and complete, and you will update us promptly if anything changes.
We may refuse service or end the relationship if information is incomplete, misleading, or if the dog or situation poses an unreasonable safety risk.
4. Your responsibilities
You agree to:
- Maintain legally required vaccinations (including rabies where applicable) and disclose any health or behavioral conditions that could affect walks or handling;
- Provide safe, functioning equipment we are authorized to use (collar, harness, leash, etc.) and a secure way to access your dog and property as agreed;
- Keep your home and yard reasonably safe for entry and exit; we are not responsible for pre-existing hazards, faulty gates, fencing, or doors;
- Provide emergency contact details and, when possible, your veterinarian's information;
- Pay agreed fees on time according to the payment method and schedule we confirm with you.
5. Scheduling, changes, and cancellation
Bookings are confirmed only when we agree (including by message or email). Unless we specify otherwise in writing:
- Cancellations or reschedules with at least 24 hours' notice before a scheduled visit may be moved or credited as we reasonably agree;
- Late cancellations (less than 24 hours) or missed access (e.g., we cannot reach you or enter as arranged) may be charged at the full agreed rate for that visit.
We may cancel or postpone due to severe weather, illness, emergency, or safety concerns. We will try to notify you as soon as practical.
6. Keys, access, and property
If you provide keys, codes, or other access methods, you authorize us to use them only for the agreed Services. You are responsible for the security of your property and for any instructions you give. We are not liable for loss or interception of keys or access devices sent through the mail or left in unsecured locations, or for issues caused by faulty locks, alarms, or third parties.
7. Behavior, safety, and refusal of service
We care deeply about safety. We may decline or immediately stop Services if a dog shows dangerous aggression toward people or other animals, if we cannot control the dog safely with the equipment provided, or if the environment is unsafe. You remain responsible for injuries or damage caused by your dog to people, other animals, or property, except to the extent caused solely by our gross negligence or willful misconduct (subject to applicable law).
8. Veterinary care and emergencies
In an emergency we may seek veterinary care for your dog if we cannot reach you in reasonable time. You authorize us to arrange emergency care when we reasonably believe it is necessary, and you agree to pay veterinary and related costs unless applicable law provides otherwise. We are not veterinarians; routine medical decisions remain yours.
9. Website use
You may use our website for lawful purposes only. You agree not to misuse the site, attempt unauthorized access, scrape content in bulk, or submit false or harmful information through forms or messages.
10. Intellectual property
Text, images, logos, and design on this site are owned by Leo Dogwalk or our licensors. You may not copy, modify, or distribute them without our prior written consent, except for personal, non-commercial sharing of links to the site.
11. Disclaimers
The website is provided "as is" for general information. We strive for accuracy but do not warrant that the site will be uninterrupted or error-free. Photos and descriptions are illustrative; specific Services depend on our agreement with you.
12. Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by Georgia law, Leo Dogwalk and anyone working with us will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for loss of profits or data, arising from the website or Services. Our total liability for any claim related to Services in a twelve-month period is limited to the amount you paid us for those Services in that period, except where liability cannot be limited by law (for example certain personal injury claims caused by gross negligence or willful misconduct).
Outdoor activities and animal care carry inherent risks (including injury, illness, escape, or interaction with other animals or traffic). You accept those risks in engaging us, except as law may not allow.
13. Indemnity
You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Leo Dogwalk and its operators from claims, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising from your breach of these Terms, your dog's actions, inaccurate information you provided, or your misuse of the website, except to the extent caused by our gross negligence or willful misconduct.
14. Governing law
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Georgia, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. You agree that courts in Fulton County, Georgia (or the county where we primarily operate, if different) have exclusive jurisdiction over disputes arising from these Terms or the Services, unless a consumer protection law in your place of residence requires otherwise.
15. Changes
We may update these Terms by posting a new version on this page and updating the "Last updated" date. Continued use of the site or Services after changes constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms for new bookings; ongoing scheduled Services may be governed by the Terms in effect when those Services were confirmed unless we agree otherwise.
16. Severability
If any provision is held invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in effect.
