I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine and any specific instructions you provide, including feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and medications if needed. I’m also comfortable caring for pets in their own home and will always prioritize their safety, comfort, and well-being.

About: I lived for about a year with a family with a playful, energetic, 40-pound, 4-and-a-half-year-old lab mix named Ivy: a former shelter dog who took a while to adjust to the house and to regular walks. The learning experience taking care of her and loving her was both unique and wonderful. She was my most memorable long-term doggy care experience, and it taught me a lot. I can feed, brush and play (inside or outside) with your dog, take him or her out for walks and potty breaks, and give your dog all the love, care and attention they need while you're away. I can also stay overnight to watch your dog, and take him or her to the vet in the event of an emergency. I'm available all day on Mondays, Thursdays and Fridays for dog walking, drops ins and house sitting.
“Karen was very sweet with my dog and made sure he had some play time with his walks. She was great about staying in touch with me and sharing updates from her visits.”
About: Dogs are just wonderful. I just don’t have the right words to explain how special they are and how much I love them. I and my family have owned several dogs in the past and I have taken care of others’s dogs. Due to the immense joy dogs have always brought me I still want them in my life. I have a very open, flexible, schedule, as I am a substitute teacher. I would not be working a full day when and/or if I do work, and I am a five minute drive from work. It can fit very easily into routine. I live in a condo building with much open space to walk my dog. There are many dogs in my bldg. I live in a big two bedroom apartment.
“Ben is always amazing. I have been using his boarding service and always had a great experience. This is the first time I traveled for 2 weeks and needed his help to walk my dog during that time. I cant say thank you enough for how much he loves and cares for my dog. He is a truely dog lover, very reliable. Chelsea remembered Ben right away and was so happy when he came to walk Chelsea.”

About: I have pet sat for my neighbors since I was 15 years old, professionally so for a collective 8 years. (from childhood to today totalling 21 years) I grew up with at least one dog in my parents household, loved both our family dogs through their senior years and beyond. I am pet cpr/ first aide certified, currently own a 9 year old Grey Domestic short hair cat, Thor, and my 28 year old horse, Riley. I am looking to head back to school for veterinary medicine with focus on large animal sports medicine/orthopedics. Eventually mixed practice too. In the horse world, I have 33 years under my belt, with my godmother introducing me at age 3. I am passionate about pet care, large and small. Most experience with cats, dogs, and horses and looking to expand. From the toy breeds of canine, to the extra large goofs, I enjoy caring for your loved ones as if they were my own. Shy guys? No problem! I take my time letting them get to know me without offense. Need a little extra help on training homework from your professional training team? Walk me through and I am more than happy to continue with their routine. I'm a softie for seniors. Looking forward to meeting you all and your pets! Available for walks, pop ins now! Currently in the process of signing up to renew my pet cpr and first aid certification. And I hope to start vet med prerequisites online at NoVA Community College. The later I am able to balance with all the attention on your pets. My neighborhood is nearby Scott's Run, Great Falls Park and Riverbend Park here in McLean and Geat Falls, Virginia. If ok with pet parents, I can take them for a walk (one at a time) during in home boarding. We don't have a fenced yard but our neighborhood offers plenty of walk routes. At client's home, I try to keep our walks with in the neighborhood and no socializing due to safety, even if your pup knows a neighbor's pup.
The median cost per walk for dog walking in Scotland is $20
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Scotland
Lindsay is absolutely great! This was my first time using Rover, and she had been incredibly patient and helpful throughout everything. She took the time to explain everything clearly and kept me updated with great communication. You can genuinely tell that she loves dogs. I would definitely recommend Lindsay and would happily book with her again!
I couldn’t be happier with my experience! They were reliable, caring, and clearly treated my dog like their own. I felt completely comfortable knowing my dog was in such good hands, and I loved getting updates along the way. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy and dependable dog walker!
Whitney was an absolute lifesaver walking my two little pups. They warmed up to her instantly. She went above and beyond making sure they were safe and got good exercise and sniffs. Communication was perfect. I would absolutely reach out to Whitney as a top choice for future walks. Highest recommendation. Thank you Whitney!
Tiffany does a great job walking our goldendoodle! She is communicative and flexible. Our dog Murphy is still a puppy and high energy, so he can be a bit of a handful. Tiffany lets us know how he's doing on the walk, and she takes him for the full 30 minutes so he gets a lot of exercise and is tuckered out when he gets home. She lets us know if he has any issues during the walk. I recommend her highly.
Christopher was excellent and was able to help with our last minute request. He was punctual, communicative and made sure to walk for agreed upon times. Otis loved his visits and he was careful to watch and ensure a good pace for an older dog. He also made sure to provide plenty of water and good reports of any potty breaks or other notes.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Walking in Scotland is $24 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $33 per walk. On Rover, walkers set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 16,865 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Scotland. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in Scotland. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route, the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.
The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Scotland after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.
Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the walk begins.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every walker on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page.
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Scotland. On Rover:
- 85% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 90% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your walker interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
