Dog walker wants cash in hand

Started using a new dog walker in January, as old one moved away. Today he messaged and asked if I can start paying cash. Ive been paying by bank transfer and always on time. AIBU to think no, you can be paid through the correct channels like everyone else. For the record he charges towards the higher rate for the area, so it's not like I'm getting a bargain.

Erm, I use cash in shops. Does that mean they are doing something wrong?

Cash is as correct as any other method of payment.

What's the problem ?

What’s unreasonable about asking for cash? Cash is the correct channel just like bank transfer etc
