Only dog fields

Built for one kind of business, and it shows.

Gaps between bookings, gate codes that change weekly, a price per dog, a rained-off Wednesday refunded in one go. Software that already knows how a dog field works. Here is one field's Wednesday — scroll, and it explains itself. Everything else is listed underneath.

Illustrative day. Your week, your prices.

One at a time

A slot is the whole field, not a seat in it

Somebody books 09:00 and the field is theirs until 09:55. No second party, no double-booking to unpick over the phone.

The gap

Five minutes at the end of every hour

Set once, carried by every slot: the 09:00 is gone before the 10:00 arrives. Nobody meets in the car park.

Per dog

Price the hour, then each dog after the first

Here it's £12 an hour, £6 a dog after the first: two dogs is £18, worked out before anyone reaches the card. No conversation at the gate.

Labels

Put a reactive-dogs hour in the week

Any window can carry a label, shown on your booking page. The dogs that need a quiet hour can find one without a phone call.

When it rains

Shut the whole day in one go

Close Wednesday and every booking is cancelled, refunded and emailed in one go. You get a call sheet for the ones arriving within the hour.

Everything in it

The whole list, from the first booking to the month-end invoice.

Every field gets all of it for £29 a month. Texts are the one extra — see pricing.

Your page

A page for your field that people actually find

Not a listing on somebody else's site: your own page, written the way Google reads, with today's free slots on it.

  • Your own address, with your town in it

    Your hours, prices and location are written into the page as the structured data search engines look for, and it is in the sitemap the day you go live.

  • Photos, a map and the way in

    A gallery straight from your phone, a map with a directions link, a tap-to-call number, and your own “how to find it” notes.

  • What the field has

    Fence height, parking, water, shelter, floodlights, whether it suits reactive dogs, and how many acres — ticked once, shown on the page.

  • A link that looks good when shared

    Paste your page into WhatsApp or Facebook and it unfurls as a card with your field's name, town and price.

  • On your own website too

    Already have a site? Paste two lines into it and your free slots and booking form appear there. Customers pick a time on your site, pay on Stripe's secure page, and get the same confirmation.

  • Listed under your county

    Every live field appears in the wagfield index by county and town, so a dog owner searching nearby has one more way to reach you.

  • Paused, never gone

    Close the field or stop paying and the page stays up saying bookings are paused, rather than turning into a dead link.

Slots and prices

Book the way your field actually runs

Every slot is the whole field for whoever booked it. You decide how long, how much, and how much room to leave between people.

  • Half-hours and hours, side by side

    Offer up to three slot lengths — 30, 60 and 90 minutes, say — each with its own price. Customers choose a length and see what is free in it.

    Up to 3 lengths · 15 min to 8 hours each

  • A fixed grid, never a drifting one

    Every length starts on the same grid, set by the shortest. A 60 can start at 9:30 on a half-hour field, and the day never ends up full of awkward gaps.

  • A gap so nobody meets in the car park

    Set the minutes at the end of each slot for clearing the field, or set none. Customers see it honestly: “30-min slot · 25 min in the field, last 5 to clear it”.

    0 minutes upwards

  • A price per dog

    Say how many dogs the price includes and what each extra dog costs. The total is worked out before anyone reaches the card.

    Up to 12 dogs a booking

  • Labelled hours

    Mark a window “Reactive dogs only” or anything else, and it shows on your booking page so the right people find it.

  • A discount for booking several

    Optional: book at least a set number of visits in one go and get a percentage off. One rule, no tiers.

    2–10 visits · up to 50% off

  • How far ahead, and how late

    Choose how far into the future people can book and how much notice you need before a slot.

    1–365 days ahead · up to 2 weeks’ notice

Gate code and reminders

The right code, at the right time, by email or text

For owners who change the code every week and book people weeks in advance: the code a customer gets is the one that works on the day of their visit.

  • A gate code list with dates

    Enter this week’s code and next week’s now. Every email and text carries the code that is valid on the day of the visit, whenever it is sent.

  • Send it at booking, or only shortly before

    Hold the code back until your reminder goes out. Until then the customer’s booking page says when it is coming, instead of showing an old one.

  • Change the code, tell the right people

    Save a change and wagfield lists everyone holding the old code for a visit after it, and offers to tell them by email, text or both.

  • Up to three reminders

    Directions the day before, your rules the night before, the code two hours out — any schedule you like, each by email, text or both.

    Up to 3 · 1 hour to 1 week before

  • You choose what each one says

    Turn the gate code, directions, field rules and a link to the booking on or off per reminder, and add a short note. You see the real email as you set it up.

  • Texts that fit in one message

    Sent from your field’s name with the day, time and code, each using one credit. No texts between 9pm and 8am, unless the visit is that day.

    One text · one credit

  • See what went out

    Every booking shows each reminder as sent, due or skipped, and why — no mobile on file, out of credit, or told already.

Passes

Sell time in advance

Package deals without the arithmetic: a Pass holds minutes of your field, so one Pass covers half-hours and hours alike.

  • Packs of hours, priced by you

    “5 hours” spent as ten half-hours, five hours or any mix. Set the size and the price; wagfield shows the customer the saving.

    Up to 3 Passes a field

  • Spent without anyone thinking about it

    A signed-in customer’s booking draws from their Pass automatically. If it runs short, the card pays only for the minutes it did not cover, plus any extra dogs.

  • Minutes come back when they should

    Cancel in good time and the minutes return. Close a day and they always return. Cancelled too late? You can still give them back by hand.

  • Issue one by hand

    Sold one for cash at the gate, or making amends? Put a Pass on a customer’s account yourself, with a note of why.

  • The 14-day right, shown for you

    The 14-day cancellation right and its waiver are shown at checkout and in the confirmation email. Passes last 12 months, with a reminder 30 days before.

    12 months · warning at 30 days

  • Refunds in one tap

    Refund a Pass’s unused minutes from your Passes list. Close the field and every Pass bought by card is refunded automatically.

When plans change

Moves, cancellations and rained-off days

Customers sort out their own changes within the rules you set, and the money follows without you touching it.

  • Customers manage their own bookings

    Every booking email carries a link: cancel or move it, without ringing you or needing an account.

  • Your cancellation window

    Free cancellation always, up to 12, 24 or 48 hours before, up to a week before, or never. Cancel before your cut-off and the refund is automatic; after it, it’s your call.

  • One late move

    Inside the window a customer can still move once, giving up the refund to do it — so a clash becomes a later visit, not a no-show.

  • Your call, always

    Cancel any booking with a full refund, part of one or none, and refund more later if you change your mind.

  • Rained off in one go

    Close the rest of today, tomorrow, a week, chosen dates or single slots. Everyone is cancelled, refunded and told by email, and by text while you have credits, with a call sheet for anyone due today.

  • Open back up

    Lift a closure and anyone on that day’s waiting list hears the field is free again.

  • Clear about who they are booking with

    Before paying, customers read that they are booking with your field and exactly when they can cancel for a refund — your terms, in one sentence.

Regulars

For the people who come back

Waiting lists for the busy days, several visits in one payment, and proper terms for the walkers who book every week.

  • A waiting list on full days

    Customers leave an email and mobile on a full day. When a slot frees they get an email, and a text while you have credits — first to book gets it. You see how many are waiting.

  • Several visits, one payment

    Book a handful of slots in one checkout, mixing lengths, or tap “repeat weekly” to pick the same slot for weeks ahead.

    Up to 10 visits a booking

  • Accounts, with no password

    Optional for customers: sign in with Google or an emailed code to see every booking in one place and book faster next time.

  • Commercial walkers on account

    Mark a walker as trade and they book with no card: a flat rate per slot, standing weekly slots, and one invoice at the end of the month.

  • Direct Debit for the month-end bill

    Walkers can set up a Direct Debit once, and their monthly invoice is collected from your own Stripe account without anyone chasing it.

Running the field

Everything in one place, on your phone

Built to be used one-handed, outdoors, with a lead in the other hand.

  • The next fortnight at a glance

    Who is coming, how many dogs, and what each day is taking, with the next booking opened up.

  • Day and week calendar

    How full each day is, closed days, and waiting-list counts. Tap a free slot to add a booking.

  • Phone and cash bookings

    Add a booking yourself, marked as paid at the gate or simply holding the slot.

  • Your customers, searchable

    Every customer with their booking history and total spent.

  • Spreadsheets whenever you like

    Download your customers and your bookings as spreadsheets at any time — including on the day you leave.

  • More than one field

    Run several fields from one login with a switcher at the top, on one bill.

  • Told as it happens

    An email for every new booking, cancellation and move, and customers’ replies come straight to you.

Money

Paid up front, straight to you

Customers pay when they book, and the money goes to your own Stripe account. wagfield never holds it and never takes a cut.

  • Paid before they arrive

    Card payment at booking through Stripe. The slot is held while they pay, so nobody else can take it halfway through.

    Slot held 15 minutes

  • Your money, your account

    You are the business taking the payment. It lands in your Stripe account and pays out to your bank on Stripe’s schedule.

  • Never sold twice

    If a payment arrives after the slot went to someone else, it is refunded automatically, with an apology.

  • Free until you go live

    A guided setup from hours to Stripe, then a look at exactly what the public will see. £29 a month starts the day your field can be booked.

  • Stripe only, for now

    Card payments run through Stripe. Cash at the gate works alongside it as a booking you add yourself.

Your field could run like this.

Free to set up. £29 a month from the day you go live.
