“Amy was absolutely fantastic. Stan was really happy boarding with her, and she kept us updated with plenty of messages & photos. Cannot recommend Amy highly enough”
About: 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. 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. 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.
“Tilda has clearly had a fantastic time with Ioana! We were kept updated with many reports and photos of Tilda in different circumstances whether it be walks in the park, ball throwing or time with her friends. We were so reassured that Tilda was in great hands and was with someone who very clearly loves dogs and looking after them. We can’t recommend Ioana highly enough.”
“Fernanda was a lovely person to trust our dogs with. She has a lovely home, is kind and caring and together with her husband provided great care of our two dogs. Her own dog was accepting of her new bunk mates and they all got on well. Fernanda kept us updated with photos throught the stay. Highly recommended and will definitely use her again. Many thanks.”
“Amazing, Bertie loved his stay with Elizabeth..With regular updates it was clear to see he was very happy and being very well taken care of. Will definitely come back to Elizabeth as someone we trust with Bertie. Thank you 👍”
“Claire was absolutely wonderful. This was the first time we left Winston with someone we didn’t know and Claire put us all at ease immediately. Winston had a great time with her and she kept us up to date on their adventures. Highly recommend!”
“Our dog Murray had a wonderful stay with Sienna! Sienna sent us lots of cute pictures of his stay and communicated regularly with us, giving us peace of mind whilst we were away. Sienna clearly has a love for animals and our dog just adores her. Thank you again Sienna, we hope to see you again soon! ☺️”
“Alice was great with Bruno during his stay. This was the first time we left our dog to stay with someone else, and Alice was very reassuring, gave us regular updates and sent us photos. We are very happy with the care Bruno received and we are going to rebook with Alice in the near future.”
“Jaiwen was an awesome sitter! Picked up my request quickly for a next day booking, Clover had a great time with lots of walks and cuddles. I felt at ease with the updates. Would definitely recommend Jaiwen and book again.”
“Celia was fantastic! She kept me updated with Seymour’s little adventures and sent plenty of photos—he looked so happy and well cared for. It was clear she gave him lots of attention and affection. I’d absolutely recommend Celia to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter!”
“Gavin & Ariana took amazing care of Ted while I was away. They took the time to get to know him and how to handle his reactivity and sent photos which put my mind at ease. I’ll definitely book them again.”
“Celine has a lovely family, who looked after our 2 year old beagle. Clover,at short notice. Clover had a great time and we will definitely use them again in future!”
“Idioa kept me updated with daily updates and photos of Tilly which put my mind at ease whilst we were away. Tilly is nervous around others but completely took to Idoia and Nick and enjoyed all the fuss and attention they gave her in our abscence. We came home to very well looked after dog. Would highly recommend and will most certainly be booking again. Thank you 😊”
“Dylan looked after our nervous dog Biscuit overnight and was absolutely brilliant. From start to finish, he was calm, reassuring, and a total pleasure to deal with. He kept us updated throughout her stay, sent videos, and made sure we knew she was doing okay — which really helped put our minds at ease. We even forgot to bring Biscuit’s bed and food, but it wasn’t an issue at all — Dylan handled it without fuss and made sure she was comfortable. Knowing she was in such capable and understanding hands meant the world to us. Highly recommend Dylan, especially if you have a dog who needs a bit of extra patience and care. Thank you again!”
“Hannah was amazing. This is the first dog sitting that Teddi has had and I felt instantly comfortable leaving her with Hannah. She sent me great updates over the weekend and it was really clear to see that Teddi was cared for - thankyou Hannah ❤️”
“Isabella is very nice and reliable person. We got daily reports from her and we could see that she dealt with our nervous dog very well. We will definitely book another stay with her.”
“Everything went very smooth when Olive stayed with James and Simone. James provided regular updates and Olive came away really happy.”
“Contacted Anne Marie for home boarding for our 10 year old lhasa apso for our recent trip. A lovely lady who was enthusiastic, caring and affectionate towards our wee dog. She kept us advised of his progress during the 2 weeks we were away, as this was the first time we had left him with someone we didn't know. When we came back he was very happy to see us and we knew that she had cared for him ever so well. I am happy to recommend Anne Marie to anyone who needs their dog looked after.”
“Francisca looked after Bertie so well - she went above and beyond- we are really grateful. Bertie was given so much time and attention and Francisca couldn’t have done more. We are so grateful and would recommend her to anyone.”

Gavin B.
“"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”
