The reality
The pain you actually have.
Generic accounting software is built for accountants. This is built for a dog walker who finishes a job at 5pm covered in dust and just wants to get paid.
01
Lots of small jobs across lots of owners. By Friday, remembering who had which walk is a job in itself.
02
Solo walks, group walks, drop-ins, holiday cover: different prices for different jobs, and they all need to add up.
03
You're outdoors with leads in your hands. Typing on your phone is the last thing you want to do.
What it does
Three things. Built for mobile service work.
No bloat, no “multi-entity reporting”.
Hands-busy, voice-first
Talk to your phone between walks and the invoice drafts itself.
Every owner in one place
Save owners’ details once and never retype an address.
Reminders that do the chasing
See who has paid, and let polite reminders go out for you.
From the founder
Built end-to-end against HMRC’s APIs.
Honest Invoices is built and run by Vix Hawley. The MTD ITSA integration was built by hand — OAuth, fraud-prevention headers, the full Self-Employment Business and BSAS APIs. It took months. The full HMRC sandbox journey passes 16 out of 16 steps with proof on file.
Most accounting platforms are built for accountants. This one is built for dog walkers who don’t want to spend their evenings doing admin. £15/month. Locked. No price hikes, ever.
FAQ
FAQ for dog walkers.
Can I bill weekly or monthly?
Either. Build the invoice whenever suits you and your owners.
Will Making Tax Digital apply to me?
It depends on your turnover, meaning what you charge before expenses. It applies from April 2028 if that’s over £20,000, which is roughly £1,700 a month, and from April 2027 if it’s over £30,000. Check yours with the MTD wave calculator.
Can I work out my mileage?
Yes. Our free mileage calculator uses HMRC’s published mileage rates.
What if I'm not good with technology?
If you can leave a voicemail, you can use Honest Invoices.
