“Linda was great with our excitable and reactive pup Cora. She clearly had lots of experience with dog training and handled her very well during our meet-and-greet. Cora had a wonderful walk and we got some very cute pictures as well. Can’t wait to book her again!”
About: I have grown up with dogs of all kinds from a very young age. As a family we have so much love for dogs and understand that they are a part of the family and deserve so much love and the best care. I’m currently working part time and my shifts are very flexible. I also don’t work weekends so I’ll be free evening, weekends and some weekdays to either do home visits or over night boarding at our house. I have a large house with an enclosed back garden. I also live next to a woodland which is great for walks. I have 3 daughters, 5, 9 and 16. All have grown up with dogs, are very gentle and absolutely adore any animals, especially dogs.
About: *Available for bookings Inverness and surrounding area for existing and new dogs* I have several years experience caring for dogs from bouncy puppies to wise seniors, I understand that every stage of life comes with its own needs. I’ve worked with shy rescues, energetic youngsters, and gentle older dogs who just want a slow stroll and extra snuggles. Whether it’s providing medication, practicing basic training, or just being a calm, friendly presence, I meet each dog where they are. Because I work from home, I can easily fit dog care into my daily routine — whether that means regular toilet breaks, playtime in the garden, or a relaxing cuddle on the sofa while I work. My flexible schedule allows me to give dogs plenty of attention throughout the day, not just morning and evening. I also love hillwalking, so for dogs that enjoy longer, more adventurous walks, I’m always happy to explore scenic trails and give them the exercise and enrichment they deserve. I believe a good sitter is one you can trust and rely on, especially when looking after your dog for the first time. As a pet sitter I always ensure to respect the owners rules and boundaries. I believe communication is key towards a healthy relationship between the dog owner and sister, and will therefore ensure to respond promptly and keep in regular contact during your dogs booking.
About: I’m not just a dog sitter—I’m someone who treats your dog like family. With 25 years of experience, I provide premium, personalized care that meets your dog’s unique needs. From regular updates and photos to flexible hours, I ensure your dog feels safe, loved, and well-cared for, so you can enjoy peace of mind knowing they’re in the best hands. Pet care is my daily joy—playtime, walks, and endless cuddles! I keep things exciting with new adventures and lots of love for your furry friend. I provide a safe, secure environment with a fenced garden for playtime. My own dog keeps yours company, ensuring they have fun, feel at ease, and stay active.
About: With a PhD in chemistry, I bring a high level of discipline, care, and attention to detail when looking after pets. Since moving to the Highlands and stepping away from full-time scientific research, I am dedicating my time to being in the outdoors and continuing to care for animals. I have extensive personal experience looking after dogs of all temperaments, ensuring they get the structure, safety, and affection they need. I regularly looked after a friend's dog for weekend stays when living in London; I currently walk a friend's dog and enjoy taking them on the beach. You can count on me for clear communication, reliable routine management, and attentive care for your dog. Pet care is a central part of my daily life, and because I work for myself, my schedule is completely open and flexible. Whether your dog needs an early morning stretch, a midday walk, or someone around for the whole afternoon, I can easily fit into their routine. I love taking the time to make sure every pet gets plenty of exercise, affection, and attention without ever feeling rushed. For me, treating your pet like family comes first, and that means keeping them safe, happy, and comfortable. I'm always mindful of your pets' specific needs and keep a close eye on how your dog is feeling throughout the day. I respect your home as if it were my own, strictly follow your care guidelines, and love sending regular photos and updates so you never have to worry while you're away.
About: Hello, welcome to our page! 😄 Myself and my husband are dog mad, we’ve always had at least one dog for the past 13 years! We’ve got experience with large breeds and teeny breeds too. We had Sasha (an Alaskan Malamute) who we unfortunately lost very suddenly in June 2021 and Charlie (a chihuahua cross) who we lost last April. We now have an absolutely crazy Cocker Spaniel called Arlo who definitely keeps us busy! Arlo loves going for long walks and my husband, Gary takes him for about 6 miles. Gary will be doing this with me and helping with all your pooches needs. We also have a 5 (nearly 6 as she keeps reminding me! 🙄) daughter who just loves dogs. She has been pestering us to get another dog since we lost Charlie last year but due to work commitments etc. introducing another dog to our family full time just isn’t feasible at present. So that’s why we’ve decided to help you look after your beloved! Please note our child is very respectful to dogs and won’t be left unattended with any dog! We aim to have your dog feel like it’s part of the family while it’s staying with us! If you have any questions, please just get in touch! ☺️ Gary & Michelle We are available for pet boarding over the weekends! We can arrange for toilet visits during the week if local to us! Your dog will be well exercised! I have a fully fenced back garden. A very lovable and energetic cocker spaniel, who wants to be friends with everyone! Any dogs staying with us will need to be good with other dogs and kids… she is 6 going on 16!

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-to-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 your Highland. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighbourhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poo and pee breaks, and distance travelled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Highland.
