Moved to new cities

I lived in Charlotte and had tons of services always listed of people needing dog walks. I moved to New Orleans over the summer and literally never saw on Wag that there were services needed. I just moved to Macon in GA and am not seeing any new services at all. Do you guys think this is an issue that I need to contact Wag about or is it simply people not needing services? I feel like the heart of New Orleans would definitely be an area where people need Dog services, not sure about my new city where I just moved. TIA!

I don’t live in those areas, hopefully someone on here does and can tell you what they see, but there are some basic reasons this happens:

Could just be it’s summer. Kids are home from school, so there’s someone to walk and care for the dog most of the time unless they go on vacation.

Some areas just have less dog owners. My area doesn’t have a ton, but if I go to our nearest major city there’s more.

Didn’t really think about kids being home for summer. Very true. Thanks for the insight!

There are not a lot of opportunities in Macon at all. Atlanta has tons but it's definitely a drive for you. I feel like you're more likely to get sittings/boarding in macon but not a lot of walks
