Sage Verify makes logging into your Sage accounts safer and easier with authentication. Add your Sage account to the app, and each time you sign in, you'll receive a notification or code in Sage Verify. Tap the notification or enter the code to confirm it’s you, and you’re logged into your Sage account in seconds. This additional layer of protection makes sure only you can access your account, keeping your data secure and private. You can add multiple Sage accounts, and you can back up your data securely, so if you get a new device, you can still log in quickly and easily.
Hound Up
Read full descriptionHide full description
Hound-Up is the uncomplicated app built for solo UK dog walkers — schedule walks and sits, log notes, and send invoices, all as simple and as straightforward as possible. CLIENT & DOG PROFILES Keep every dog's age, breed, temperament, diet and medical notes in one place, alongside emergency contacts, vet details and entry instructions for each home (lockbox codes, alarm codes, and more). SCHEDULING THAT WORKS THE WAY YOU DO Set up recurring walks — every Monday, Wednesday and Friday, or alternate weeks — or add one-off walks and boarding sits in seconds. A clean calendar view shows your day and week at a glance, with every upcoming booking ready to go. LOG A WALK IN UNDER 10 SECONDS Record walks live with GPS tracking or log records when you get back — solo or as a group. Pick a time, add a quick note on how the dog got on, and move to the next one. You can even dictate notes for when typing is a hassle. YOUR LEDGER, SORTED AUTOMATICALLY Every completed walk or sit is added to that client's ledger automatically, billed at the right rate. Review what's owed at a glance, then send invoices individually or all at once — by email or WhatsApp — and mark them as paid when the money lands. BUILT TO WORK OFFLINE Sign in once, and Hound-Up works fully offline from then on — a black spot on a rural walk never gets in the way of logging your day. Signing in also keeps your client data safely backed up, even if this phone is lost or replaced. AUTOPILOT (OPTIONAL) Want it to keep working while you don't? Autopilot (£9.99/month) removes the 10-client cap, adds your own booking website with live availability, and runs your overdue-invoice reminders and calendar feed automatically in the background — even with the app closed. (Automatic backup and paid-invoice notifications are already free for everyone, with or without Autopilot.) Designed to feel like a modern, native iOS app in both light and dark mode — fast, clean, and completely free of admin clutter.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Sage Verify at none against Hound Up's 1. Sage Verify also leads on device support (3 vs 1). Hound Up's advantage is update cadence (every 2 days vs every 10 days). On price, ads and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
