Loving Dog Dad in G12
Pet care experience
Hello! I’m Gavin, a lifelong dog lover based in the heart of Glasgow’s West End (G12). After 13 wonderful years with my own dog, who sadly passed away earlier this year, I’ve decided to offer dog walking and boarding in my local area. I understand how much trust it takes to hand over your dog to someone new. That’s why I only host one dog at a time, giving your dog my full attention, care, and companionship. Whether it’s a brisk walk through Kelvingrove Park or a gentle stroll through the Botanics, your dog will be treated with the same care and respect I gave to my own. I’m looking to build relationships with dogs and their humans. I prefer to work with a small number of regular clients in the G12 area, so that your dog becomes familiar with me and our walks feel relaxed, consistent, and fun. If you live in G12 and want a dependable, dog-centred person I’d love to hear from you.
Reviews
"Gavin has been walking my cockapoo, Molly, for several weeks now and I honestly couldn’t be happier with the care and consistency he provides. Molly is quite sensitive and takes a little while to warm up to new people, but Gavin’s calm and gentle approach worked wonders. Now she gets excited every time she hears his voice! I really value Gavin’s professionalism — he always arrives on time, sticks to the agreed schedule, and clearly knows the local area well. He’s not doing this as a side hustle; it’s obvious that he genuinely enjoys spending time with dogs and brings great energy to every walk. It’s a real comfort knowing Molly is with someone who treats her with the same care he gave his own dog. Highly recommend." — Jackie, G12
"Gavin has been a fantastic support for both me and Harley. From our first meeting, it was clear he genuinely loves dogs and takes real pride in offering a thoughtful, attentive service. Harley, my energetic cocker spaniel, absolutely adores him — tail wagging before Gavin’s even at the door! What I really appreciate is how Gavin keeps things personal. He walks Harley one-to-one, which means I know she’s getting his full attention and a walk that’s suited to her needs and pace. Gavin gives me regular updates and I always feel reassured knowing Harley is in safe, capable hands. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, caring dog walker who goes the extra mile." — Claire, G12

Your dog will be with me throughout their stay, including through the night. Happy for you to bring your pet's favourite bed, toys, and blankets.
Home
Information Gavin B. would like to know about your pet
Let me know your dog's habits and routines. What helps them to settle and what I should avoid? I need to know how they are on lead and when in contact with other dogs. What commands can I use with your dog? And medication?
A typical day
I love walking and will provide your dog with long walks at least twice daily. Additional toilet walks will be shorter in the local area. I have access to two private gardens, one secure, the other unsecured. In the evening, I am happy to snuggle with your dog while watching TV.

Availability
I run my own leadership consultancy from home, which gives me great flexibility in my day. I offer three daily dog walking windows: - Morning walks: 07.00–09.00 - Lunchtime walks: 12.00–13.00 - Afternoon/early evening walks: 16.00–18.00 These time slots work well for clients who need support before work, during the day, or as a top-up outing after a long afternoon indoors. I’m happy to discuss a regular schedule or occasional bookings within these times.
