About: I've been surrounded by dogs and cats for as long as I can remember, and caring for animals has always been a big part of my life. Growing up, we always had dogs at home, and I helped raise them from puppies—looking after them, training them, taking them on walks, and making sure they were happy, healthy, and loved. We also spent a lot of time in the countryside, where being around dogs became a natural part of everyday life. Since moving to Scotland, I've continued caring for the dogs and pets of my friends and family whenever they've needed help. I genuinely love spending time with animals and treat every dog as if they were my own. Unfortunately, because of previous travel commitments, I wasn't able to have a dog of my own. I live in a fantastic area surrounded by parks, green spaces, and the Clyde Canal, so there are plenty of beautiful places for walks and adventures. I also have a secure garden where dogs can safely play and relax. I understand that trusting someone with your beloved dog is a big decision. I will always care for your dog with patience, kindness, and genuine love, making sure they feel safe, happy, and well looked after while they're with me. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply relaxing by someone's side, I'll make sure they have the best possible experience. I currently work remotely from home, which means I have a flexible schedule and can provide your dog with plenty of attention, companionship, and care throughout the day. I'm available during weekdays, weekends, and evenings, so your dog will rarely be left alone and will always have someone nearby to look after them. I live in a peaceful cottage flat in a wonderful area surrounded by parks, green spaces, and the Clyde Canal, providing the perfect setting for daily walks, exercise, and new adventures. I also have a secure, enclosed garden where dogs can safely play, explore, or simply relax. I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your beloved pet. I will always care for your dog with patience, kindness, and genuine affection, following their usual routine as closely as possible to help them feel comfortable, safe, and at home. My goal is to give every dog a happy, stress-free experience while providing you with complete peace of mind. Your dog's safety, comfort, and happiness will always be my highest priorities. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else, so I will care for them with the same patience, kindness, and attention that I would give my own. I take the time to understand each dog's routine, personality, and individual needs, including feeding schedules, exercise, medications, and any special instructions, so they can feel as settled and comfortable as possible. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply relaxing in a quiet space, I'll make sure they receive the care and attention that's right for them. My home is a calm, safe, and dog-friendly environment with a secure enclosed garden for supervised play, and I'm surrounded by parks, green spaces, and the Clyde Canal for enjoyable daily walks. Dogs are never left unattended in the garden, and I'll always ensure they are secure and comfortable both indoors and outdoors. I'll also keep you updated with regular photos and messages, so you can relax knowing your dog is happy, safe, and being well looked after while you're away.
“We booked our golden doodle Freddie for a three night stay with Elizabeth and I can only say how delighted we are with the care and affection our wee doodle received. From the initial meet n greet, a few days before his stay, Freddie was warmly welcomed into the family and very quickly settled with Elizabeth. He was spoiled all weekend with woodland walks, sniffing safaris at the local park and even a trip to Loch Lomond for a dip! With lovely photos and regular updates on his stay we felt so reassured that he was in safe hands and having a great time with an experienced dog lover! We’re so pleased to have found Elizabeth and Freddie is looking forward to his next stay already!”
“Robin is very friendly, patient and helpful to babysit puppie. My puppie cookie got along quite well with him and was nicely looked after. I am looking forward to asking help again from him if I need.”
“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!”
About: Hiii I’m Gianna! I work in a Pet shop on Hyndland Street (The Partick Pet Food co) so I have experience in different pet needs and ways to help. I have also taken care of a variety of pets including dogs, cats, hamsters, turtles and fishes. My neighbours and family also trusts me with pet sitting duty all the time. Feeding, brushing, walking and playing are my best skills. I have also fostered two puppies for a few weeks 4 years ago, such a great experience. I am currently a Biomedical Science student at university so I will have loads of time that can be dedicated to your fur babies. Fun walks every time!! I currently work at a pet shop in Partick (The Partick Pet Food co) where I have hands-on experience in caring for animals and a strong understanding of pet health and nutrition. I’m confident in providing safe and attentive care! I live in a flat near big parks that I can easily access (e.g Botanics Garden, Kelvingrove Park etc) I also bake and cook so if allowed, homemade snacks! I also provide daily photo & video updates.
“Janou did an amazing job looking after our dog. Rocco had a great time staying with Janou, who gave us updates on how Rocco was doing and we felt at ease knowing that our dog was well looked after. Would recommend and thank you Janou!”
About: I have taken care of cats and various smaller animals as a child up till I was 18 my family always had dogs but we were never allowed one at home due to the cat so always enjoyed my families dogs by taking them walks and watching them whilst my family were on holiday and taking them walks when others family members couldn’t I’ve taken care of small and big dogs I’m a freelance musician so I can work at different times with long periods of time of no work so whatever suits for the owner and I have agreed on available at short notice I follow their care plan set out by the owner as they know best for their animals and I ensure the animals are cared for as and when they need set to their own routine I can walk dogs and watch cats with clear instructions
“Alfie has just stayed with Sakshi for the first time for two nights while we went away. I’m quite sure he didn’t want to come home when I went to pick him up! He was a very happy dog and had clearly had a lovely calm and relaxing time with Sakshi and Ash. It was all a bit last minute (our fault!) and Sakshi was brilliant with communicating and organising. We went for a meet and greet visit which made us feel very confident about leaving Alfie with her. Sakshi kept up updated throughout and we’d be very happy to leave Alfie with her again. Highy recommended 😊”
“James was great; responsive to a meet up before we left just to ensure dogs got on etc., and kept us updated with photos while we were away. Pablo clearly felt at home, and was returned healthy and happy - we’re so pleased to have met someone we’d be happy to leave him with again. Thanks to both James and his partner for looking after him so well.”
“Lauren looked after Mazey for 2 nights and did a brilliant job. She updated me regularly and took her lots of lovely walks. I know Mazey was in safe and caring hands and want to thank Lauren for being so thoughtful and kind.”
“This woman is an absolute angel 😇 Milena and Mark just boarded my very anxious maltese for 1 week . They took the best 👌 care of her if I could rate my than 5 stars 🌟 I would. They walked her made sure every need was being met and kept in regular contact id happly board bella again with Mark and Milan again in the future.”
“Anne Marie took great care of my small dog Buzz. She ensured he is taken care of and provided a safe clean and enjoyable environment. I would highly recommend Anne Marie to anyone looking for a trusted dog boarding service.”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs and have always absolutely loved them. I have my own Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, so I’m very used to everything that comes with looking after a dog — walks, feeding, playtime and lots of attention! I’m caring, reliable and would always make sure your dog feels happy, comfortable and well looked after while they’re with me. I know how nerve-wracking it can be leaving your dog with someone else, so I’d treat them exactly how I’d want someone to treat my own. I work fully remotely in marketing, so I’m at home throughout the day and already have a routine built around my own dog, Marley. We usually start with a morning walk around 8am (or whenever he decides to wake me up with face licks!), followed by another walk at lunchtime, around 5/6pm and again around 9pm. Having another dog around would fit really naturally into my day. I have a large shared garden directly behind my flat where I regularly take my own dog, Marley, to play, run around and socialise with other dogs. I also have the Botanic Gardens right on my doorstep, so we’re never short of lovely places for walks! As I work from home, any dog in my care would have plenty of company throughout the day, and I’m more than happy to stick to their usual feeding, walking and sleeping routine.
“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.”
“Felt very at ease leaving Max with Stephen. He gave me updates, sent photos, was more worried about him not earring than me. Will be using him again I am very happy with the care and attention Stephen gave my dog”
About: I am accustomed to caring for dogs and cats and have often looked after pets for friends and family. I am passionate about animal welfare and would be pleased to offer dependable pet care services to others who need support while away from home ❤️ I am working, but happy to look after the pets who can stay at home when I am at work, also free at the weekends. Due to the size of my flat, I can only accommodate smaller dogs and cats. Larger dogs generally need more space than I can't provide comfortably. I will ensure that any pets in my care receive safe, loving, and attentive environment ❤️
“Elizabeth was a very kind & caring dog sitter . Pluto was well looked after & Elizabeth kept us up to date with some lovely pictures of our puppy . Would highly recommend Elizabeth as a trusted companion, for all your pets .”
About: I have owned dogs all my life dogs of all sizes. Different breeds from German shepherd, Great Dane and Pomeranian so have dealt with different dog behaviors I have all the time to care for your dog I’m at home every day so can be there 24/7 the longest they would maybe be left alone would be max 1 hour. Which would be unlikely if I knew they could travel in a car I would always take them with me I stay in a flat but have a green just outside and plenty of lovely walk ways very near by. Your dog would be well cared for and given lots of love and cuddles
“Luca had a very good first stay with Bryony. He seemed to be really settled during his stay. He seemed very relaxed in her flat and Bryony was very calm with him. Bryony was good at replying to messages and kept me updated. I would recommend Bryony and would definitely ask her to look after Luca again.”

“Jade took wonderful care of Leo and Thomas while we were away. She was attentive, patient, and clearly understands cats and their personalities. We loved receiving updates and could see how relaxed and happy they were with her. It’s not easy to trust someone with your pets, but Jade made it effortless. Highly recommended.”
“Fallon was absolutely fantastic with Gimli! She went above and beyond to make sure he was happy, comfortable, and well cared for while I was away. Her regular updates and photos gave me complete peace of mind, and it was clear how much love and attention she gave him. Fallon is reliable, kind, and truly amazing with animals—I couldn’t recommend her highly enough!”
“Kathryn went above and beyond to ensure that all ran smoothly whilst we were away. It was apparent that she had spent time with and engaged with Daisy and everything was in perfect order for our return. Would highly recommend:)”
“Robyn was an absolute star! We loved getting pictures and updates, being kept in the loop about anything happening with our girls. We were also so impressed by how thoughtful and conscientious she is. Our girls have a way of tossing litter about the place and, before using the hoover, Robyn got in touch to ask if the girls were afraid of the hoover at all so she could adjust accordingly. Our girls loved her, too. The first few photos we received from Robyn were of our girls cuddling with her - they don’t cuddle with just anyone! Can’t recommend her enough and we’re so grateful to have had her watching our wee ones.”
“Lisa was absolutely lovely and did a fantastic job of looking after our cat whilst we were away. He's normally very nervous around people and tends to hide but he took to Lisa straight away. We really appreciated the updates and photos, and will definitely book again in the future. Thank you Lisa 😊”
“Julia was amazing, she made a right fuss of little Jinx and looked after him while I was away for three nights. She made a big effort and kept in contact while I was away with photos! Thanks so much Julia 🐈⬛”
“Iain took great care of Hector while we were away for 9 days. Hector was very well looked after and Iain spent time playing with him, as well as feeding him and keeping his tray clean. We really appreciated the daily updates with photos and videos. We wouldn't hesitate to ask Iain to look after Hector again, or to recommend him. Thank you Iain!”
“Danielle did a fabulous job of looking after my beloved blind cat Humbug. He can be timid with people he doesn’t know but he absolutely loved her and was very happy and confident when I arrived home. Her updates were brilliant and I knew he was in really capable hands. I’d give her 10 stars if I could and would definitely book her again 😊”
“Incredibly communicative and lovely. Spent extra time with my cat as she correctly noticed that he gets lonely and needy! Took lovely care of the space as well- would absolutely use again!”
About: Along with my 6 years of veterinary experience I've cared for clients and personal kitties during this time from all walks of life. I am familiar with handling fractious, nervous, and otherwise kitties and have no issue adjusting to plans as needed.
About: Throughout my life I’ve never not had less than 2 cats. Since leaving home, it’s harder to see them so any chance u get is a blessing. They’re currently:20, 7 and 5! I also work as part of the admin team at vets now so see a wide range of furry friends day in day out and that’s definitely my favourite part of the job.
“William is just wonderful, really caring and attentive to our two ladies. We get regular updates and lots of pictures to look at while we're away. 10/10, would absolutely recommend.”
About: I have over 40years experience with dogs of all different breeds.

I live in Bearsden only a 10 minute drive to Mugdock which is a fantastic place to exercise your pet. I also visit various other parks and have a good number of local walks to keep your pet active 🐾🐕 I have successfully passed 2 training courses with the Institute of Modern Dog Training (IMDT).Dog ownership should be fun and enjoyable and I can help you achieve this. I am more than happy to help with any training for any dogs in my care.

If you are looking for someone who is trustworthy and reliable to walk or board your dog please don’t hesitate to get in touch to discuss your requirements. I work Monday to Friday gardening and I take the dogs with me in my van. I have found they enjoy traveling in the van and get exercise in different gardens as well as stops in different parks. All my gardening clients know I look after dogs and are happy to have them in their gardens. I live in a quiet modern estate with a fence back garden. There are numerous local walk for dogs the I frequent throughout their stay.

About: I grew up with dogs and cats, and we always had three dogs at home, so caring for animals has been part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’m a true dog lover and have always felt a special bond with dogs. Over the years, I’ve looked after dogs for friends, family and neighbours, and I take the time to understand each dog’s personality. I like to learn what makes them happy, comfortable or anxious, and tailor my care around that, whether that means longer walks, shorter gentle walks, extra attention, playtime, or simply giving them space to settle. What sets me apart is that I don’t treat every dog the same. I take the time to understand their individual needs and routine, so they feel safe, relaxed and properly cared for. I care for every dog as if they were my own, and my goal is for both you and your dog to feel completely comfortable and confident while you're apart. My routine is very flexible and will fit around your dog’s needs. I am at home throughout the day, so I can adapt to their usual schedule for walks, feeding, playtime, rest and toilet breaks, helping them feel settled and comfortable. In my home, your dog will be treated like part of the family. I have a secure fenced garden, so they will have plenty of opportunity to run around, play and get fresh air throughout the day. I will be at home all day, every day, so your dog will not be left alone while in my care. I’m also close to some fantastic parks and walking areas, including Mugdock and Garscube, so I can provide proper daily walks, hikes and outdoor time depending on your dog’s needs and energy levels. My living room is tiled and right beside the back door, which makes it easy to care for younger dogs or dogs that are still toilet training. I always aim to keep dogs comfortable, safe and relaxed, while sticking as closely as possible to their usual routine.
“Nune did a great job looking after my two. She sent regular updates and lots of photos, and the dogs seem to be smiling in all the pictures! I would be very comfortable with her looking after them again. Highly recommended”
“Saff had the best time at Natalie's again Natalie kept us up to date throughout the day and I don't think Saff wanted to leave when I came to collect her! Would highly recommend 😊”

About: My family has had a variety of different small dogs, so there are many behaviors of dogs that I can quickly pick up on what they are trying to say. My former pets always liked to sleep with me and I didn't mind this behavior from my pets, and I used to babysit various kittens for friends, which made me a lover of pet care and enjoy it. I'm currently tasked with editing my dissertation at home, so I have plenty of time to play with my pets! I am flexible with the time I have at my disposal each week. The home we live in now has good light and an open fenced yard not on the road with catnip plants that the cats will love, which makes the neighbor's cats always enjoy visiting the yard. There is a large lawn and park right outside the house for dog walking and if pet owners need any additional pet care services, I will do my best to accommodate them. I am currently working on my dissertation at home all day and I have plenty of free time to play with your puppy or cat and time is freely available, so book now. I live in a house with a small fenced yard and there is a large park near the house for dog walking, so if there is anything extra you need just let me know!
“Robin had Wallace for the day and he has come back happy and tired. Robin put my mind at ease after dropping Wallace off and took him for a nice long walk. Would definitely recommend.”
About: I’m currently working in Glasgow and have a flexible schedule I lived with a dog for two years during university, where I trained and cared for them from a young puppy. As an athlete, I love staying active and enjoy bringing dogs along with me to keep them healthy and happy. Regular exercise is essential for their wellbeing, and I understand the importance of letting dogs free-roam in safe areas to explore, sniff, and connect with nature. I’m always eager to help care for dogs and take every opportunity to walk my friends’ pets big or small, from Chihuahuas to Great Danes. I also have experience administering medication to senior dogs, ensuring their specific needs are met. I’m currently doing a 9–5 internship during the week, but I always make time to stay active with dog walks and playtime! It’s the perfect way to unwind, stay fit, and spend quality time with animals. I live near Partick, which is a perfect area for walks and playtime. I’ve got everything ready to make your dog comfortable, including toys, blankets, and treats suitable for all sizes and needs. I’m very mindful of keeping anything hazardous or unsafe out of reach, especially for dogs with allergies. I understand the importance of ensuring they only eat food that’s safe for them, even when they’re feeling hungry or curious.
“Lexie loved her stay with Soojin, she actually sulked when she got home to her boring parents! Soojin went above and beyond though, and even dropped Lexie off afterwards as we couldn't collect her. 100% recommend 👍”
“Amy was incredibly caring and we felt really safe leaving Arwen with her. She made sure to understand Arwen's habits thoroughly. She updated us with multiples pictures during the day. She truly went above and beyond for our pup. Moreover, she's very friendly and nice! We would definitely book her again 😀”
About: I’ve always loved being around dogs and genuinely enjoy caring for them. I have grown up having poodles in my family from the age of 10. I’m patient, reliable and attentive to each pet’s individual needs, whether that’s going for walks, having playtime, or simply keeping them company. I understand how important it is to feel confident that your pet is in safe and caring hands, and I’ll treat them like they’re my own. I currently have a very flexible schedule, so I have plenty of time to dedicate to caring for your dog. I’m available throughout the week and can be flexible around your dog’s usual routine, whether that’s walks, playtime, feeding or simply providing company and attention throughout the day. Your dog’s safety and wellbeing are my top priorities. I’ll take the time to get to know their personality, routine and individual needs, and make sure they feel comfortable and settled in my care. I’m attentive to their surroundings and will always follow any specific instructions you provide. Most importantly, I’ll treat your dog like they’re my own and make sure they receive plenty of love, attention and care.

“We’ve used Cameron several times now and he’s always fantastic. Would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for pet care and he’s my first choice when looking for a Rover. Great communication and very accommodating.”
About: Hello! I'm Aphra, I'm based in the west of Glasgow. I own a scruffy little rescue dog called Sprout and thanks to him I have experience of helping a dog go from anxious of everything to confident and content. I know that trusting your dog with someone new is a big deal so thank you for considering me! For dog walking I am available all day on Wednesdays and weekends, and evenings on the other weekdays. Happy to pet sit in your home, or my own pending positive meetings between our dogs! If you have any questions just let me know! I work full time from home with compressed hours meaning I'm fully free on Wednesdays and weekends. On the other days I work 7-5pm. My partner also works from home so my dogs well cared for if I'm out of the house dog sitting. I work as a data analyst which is fairly relaxed schedule wise, so if pet sitting/boarding I'm available all day for outside breaks and a longer walk at lunch. As long as there's a table I'm happy to work at your home if you prefer, so that your pup has constant company! I take my own dog out for 3 walks a day minimum and would do the same for any dogs in my care, depending on their energy levels and requirements! I have a fully fenced garden so your pup will have plenty of space to relax and play if boarded at our house. My own dog, Sprout, enjoys playing with other dogs but usually spends most of his day snoozing in the sunniest spot he can find. I always keep dogs on leads unless in a secure garden as you just never know how other dogs might react even if yours of friendly. I have my own car and am a very short drive from the vets if any issues arise.
“Dorina was great with our dog Raki. She's always punctual and sends us lots of pictures. Great communication and amazing with our dog. Raki loves her and gets super excited every time she sees her. I totally recommend her!”

It is a quiet area with other dog owners in the building.

I am a friendly, caring and responsible person who enjoys spending time with animals. I am happy to provide lots of attention, playtime, cuddles and walks, depending on what your pet needs. I understand that every dog has a different personality and routine, so I would always take the time to get to know them and make sure they feel comfortable around me. I currently work 3 shifts a week 12hr shifts however my timetable for each week changes so I am free different days of the week I have an fenced garden and a cosy area for the dogs where my dog sleeps we have lots of dog toys and yummy treats as well

“Demelza was able to accommodate a last minute walk for Scrabble as I was unwell. He had a great time and I got plenty of pics of his walk 🐶 Scrabble is very high energy and came back all tired out and ready to have a chill night! 😂 highly recommend Demelza and we will definitely book again 😊 thank you!!”
About: Grown up owning a Labrador and being surrounded by a number of family dogs of various sizes including rescue dogs. Our household welcomes all kind of paws and pups. I work shifts and my partner works hybrid (home and office). Between us there is someone home, keen to cuddle or up for a walk. We occasionally look after family and friends dogs when required. I have a fenced, secure garden. A box full of toys and treats for all dogs to enjoy. A dedicated cuddle chair calling out for a dog snuggle.
About: I have dog walked, dog and cat sat, and trained throughout my childhood and teenage years, and used that experience last year to work for a local company in my home town to walk and pet sit for pets of all kinds (cats, dogs of all sizes, and even birds). I am currently working from home with flexible hours, so I am able to look after your pets at anytime of the day for any length of time! Unfortunately I am unable to keep pets in my flat due to my tenancy agreement. However, for care in the pet owner’s home I offer long walks, games such as fetch, visits to the dog park, quality one on one time for senior pets and cats, feeding, training, baths, grooming, and even services such as taking out the bins and watering household plants if needed!
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and caring for them has always come naturally to me. I lost my own dog of 12 years last April, so I know how much pets mean to people and how important it is knowing they’re in safe hands. Since meeting my partner, his dog took to me straight away and we’ve become really close — I spend most of my free time with him. I’m used to both big and small breeds, including Border Collies, Staffy/Akita mixes and Cocker Spaniels. I also help care for family members’ and neighbours’ dogs regularly, whether that’s walks, feeding, playtime or just keeping them company. Dogs usually warm to me very quickly and I genuinely just love being around them. I currently have a flexible schedule, so I have plenty of time to give your dog the attention, care and company they need. I’m available for walks, drop-ins and pet sitting throughout the week and weekends. Spending time with dogs is something I genuinely enjoy, so I’m always happy to fit my routine around their needs and keep them comfortable and settled. Your dog’s safety and comfort will always come first with me. I’m very attentive to routines, behaviour and making sure pets feel relaxed in their environment. I’m experienced with both large and small breeds and understand that every dog is different. Whether that’s sticking to feeding schedules, long walks, playtime or just giving them company and reassurance, I’ll care for them like they’re my own.
About: Hi there! My name is Biz. Originally from Sydney, I am now living in my dream city (Glasgow) and am hoping to get some more of an animal fix despite currently working at an National animal charity! I have had over 12 years experience in animal welfare, and have worked in dog walking/pet sitting professionally for several of those years back in Australia, meaning I am confident walking reactive and strong dogs too! I also have worked closely with a range of small furries, and have a wealth of experience with cats and their often complex and unique behaviours from a career as a cat rehomer in London too. Please get in touch if you would like me to pet sit for you so you can fully relax whilst you're away with the knowledge your animals are in safe and capable hands, or if you need help with dog walks or cat visits intermittently. Look forward to meeting you and your babies! I currently work full-time at the UK's largest dog welfare charity on a rolling rota, meaning I have a mix of weekends and weekdays free. This gives me flexibility to be around to look after your animals throughout the day dependant on the time of booking, or am able to ensure they are walked before and after work and on my lunch break if situated close enough. I am also able to provide on lead walks from your home, off lead walks for dog social dogs, and can even use my car to take your pups on adventures further afield! I provide pet-sitting services for dogs, cats, and small furries, or just for several hours if that's all you require. I am also able to do multiple drop ins for feeding cats which includes refreshing water bowls, cleaning litter trays and providing extra love, play-time, and attention whilst I'm there. I make sure I do everything in the best interest of your pets, and want you to feel comfortable and confident in entrusting them with me. I am a detail oriented, reliable, and experienced pet-sitter with respect for you and your home, and will send photo updates as little or often as requested, and am responsive to any communication whilst you're away so you can spend less time worrying about your pets, and more time focused on you! I will keep up with any on-going training, take your dogs for walks in keeping with their lifestyle with you, and be diligent with any medication required. I also have to my own car at all times, and with over 15 years of driving experience, you can rest assured any time your pet is travelling in the car they are as safe as can be. I am more than happy to meet you in person before making your first booking if you would like me to meet your pets ahead of your departure too!
“Mungo has found a new friend in Robert. So much so that by the end of the week he was eagerly awaiting his visit. Robert is punctual and always keeps you updated. And, because of Robert's dog training skills, Mungo came back better behaved than when he left.”
About: I am a reliable and caring dog walker based in Glasgow. I have a genuine love for dogs and enjoy spending time outdoors, making sure each walk is safe, fun, and suited to your dog’s individual needs. I am responsible, punctual, and flexible with weekday availability, and I always aim to provide a calm and trustworthy service so your dog feels comfortable and happy on every walk. I’m currently available 5 days a week; morning, noon and most evenings. I am flexible and reliable, tending to your dog walking needs to suit you. I aim to always put the safety of your fur baby first and foremost. I aim to ensure they have fun and build a trusting relationship.
About: I have many years of dedicated and trusted pet sitter for friends and family before joining the Rover app, I offer a level of care that goes far beyond basic dog walking. Available most days from 11 am till 10 pm My extensive background is backed by professional certifications in pet first aid and advanced dog training. I’ve completed comprehensive course in professional dog walking. I am currently a member of the Guild of Dog Trainers entry level Companion Assistant Dog Trainer. This unique combination of hands-on experience and formal training allows me to provide a safe, structured, and nurturing environment for your beloved companion. I specialise in providing tailored care for playful puppies and mixed breed rescue dogs with behavioural issues. My true passion and expertise, however, lie in working with anxious, nervous, or fear-based reactive dogs, particularly guardian breeds. I approach every dog with a calm, caring, and nurturing demeanor, creating a sense of trust and security that allows even the most sensitive dogs to relax and thrive in my care. What Sets Me Apart. I got my first dog at the age of 5 years old, after asking for a puppy constantly my Dad came home with a wee Whippet. Other breeds dogs that i have experience of are Bedlington Terrier, Jack Russell, Chow Chow, German Shepherd, King Charles Spaniel, Shetland Sheepdog, Border Collie, Staffordshire Bull Terrier and Cane Corso. My commitment to transforming dogs' lives and supporting dog owners is best illustrated by a recent case study. I undertook behaviour modification program with dogs who had a history of biting and was at risk of being euthanised. While this intensive program is not a typical service, it demonstrates the depth of my dedication and my ability to handle even the most challenging situations with compassion and expertise. When you entrust your pet to my care, you can be confident they are in the hands of a true professional who is deeply committed to their well-being. My life revolves around dogs, and my own dogs are testament to that commitment. I have started working as self employed dog walker and dog trainer after years of doing it for free to help out friends and family. I am dedicated to hands-on training with my own dogs, a practice that not only sharpens my skills but also ensures I am always bringing the most current and effective techniques to the pets I care for. Saturday I have coaching walk and talk with my own dog and dog training clients. I take Sundays and Mondays to focus on admin and self care. This routine allows me to offer consistent, focused attention to your dog ensuring they receive the highest standard of care and companionship. Therefore, my availability works around about my own dogs. To ensure your pet's utmost comfort and to maintain a consistent routine, I provide all my pet care services exclusively within your own home. This approach allows your pet to remain in their familiar environment, surrounded by their own scents, toys, and comforts, which significantly reduces stress and anxiety while you are away. Currently, I am unable to host pets in my own home as I reside in a rented property where I do not have permission to board other animals. By offering to come to your home, I can give your pet my full attention in the space where they feel most secure, ensuring a seamless and positive experience for everyone.

About: I've been surrounded by dogs and cats for as long as I can remember, and caring for animals has always been a big part of my life. Growing up, we always had dogs at home, and I helped raise them from puppies—looking after them, training them, taking them on walks, and making sure they were happy, healthy, and loved. We also spent a lot of time in the countryside, where being around dogs became a natural part of everyday life. Since moving to Scotland, I've continued caring for the dogs and pets of my friends and family whenever they've needed help. I genuinely love spending time with animals and treat every dog as if they were my own. Unfortunately, because of previous travel commitments, I wasn't able to have a dog of my own. I live in a fantastic area surrounded by parks, green spaces, and the Clyde Canal, so there are plenty of beautiful places for walks and adventures. I also have a secure garden where dogs can safely play and relax. I understand that trusting someone with your beloved dog is a big decision. I will always care for your dog with patience, kindness, and genuine love, making sure they feel safe, happy, and well looked after while they're with me. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply relaxing by someone's side, I'll make sure they have the best possible experience. I currently work remotely from home, which means I have a flexible schedule and can provide your dog with plenty of attention, companionship, and care throughout the day. I'm available during weekdays, weekends, and evenings, so your dog will rarely be left alone and will always have someone nearby to look after them. I live in a peaceful cottage flat in a wonderful area surrounded by parks, green spaces, and the Clyde Canal, providing the perfect setting for daily walks, exercise, and new adventures. I also have a secure, enclosed garden where dogs can safely play, explore, or simply relax. I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your beloved pet. I will always care for your dog with patience, kindness, and genuine affection, following their usual routine as closely as possible to help them feel comfortable, safe, and at home. My goal is to give every dog a happy, stress-free experience while providing you with complete peace of mind. Your dog's safety, comfort, and happiness will always be my highest priorities. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else, so I will care for them with the same patience, kindness, and attention that I would give my own. I take the time to understand each dog's routine, personality, and individual needs, including feeding schedules, exercise, medications, and any special instructions, so they can feel as settled and comfortable as possible. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply relaxing in a quiet space, I'll make sure they receive the care and attention that's right for them. My home is a calm, safe, and dog-friendly environment with a secure enclosed garden for supervised play, and I'm surrounded by parks, green spaces, and the Clyde Canal for enjoyable daily walks. Dogs are never left unattended in the garden, and I'll always ensure they are secure and comfortable both indoors and outdoors. I'll also keep you updated with regular photos and messages, so you can relax knowing your dog is happy, safe, and being well looked after while you're away.
“We booked our golden doodle Freddie for a three night stay with Elizabeth and I can only say how delighted we are with the care and affection our wee doodle received. From the initial meet n greet, a few days before his stay, Freddie was warmly welcomed into the family and very quickly settled with Elizabeth. He was spoiled all weekend with woodland walks, sniffing safaris at the local park and even a trip to Loch Lomond for a dip! With lovely photos and regular updates on his stay we felt so reassured that he was in safe hands and having a great time with an experienced dog lover! We’re so pleased to have found Elizabeth and Freddie is looking forward to his next stay already!”

“Shivani was the perfect sitter for our 5 year old cocker spaniel. When I returned to pick up Hudson, he was clearly that comfortable with his stay that he tucked himself into the corner of the room as he didn't want to leave - testament to Shivani's care over the 9/10 days. Shivani kept us up-to-date with messages and photos throughout the duration of his stay which was great as we could show the kids updates whilst we were on holiday. I have 100% comfort to leave Hudson with Shivani again in the future. I couldn't recommend Shivani enough.”

“Jacques was truly amazing. From first contact, he was so responsive and friendly. He looked after our 1 year old slightly timid lab in his lovely home. She had a fantastic time with lots of walks and playtime. It was clear just how much Jacques loves dogs and wants to ensure they are cared for, properly exercised and stimulated. He has a lovely soft Alsatian who I think our dog became quite close to. Frequent updates with photos and videos. Our family was so reassured during our 2 week holiday. Thoroughly endorse Jacques for anyone looking to use his services and would not hesitate to use again. Thank you!”

About: I grew up around dogs, my grandparents and family friends had dogs and I was often tasked with walking them growing up. Work and study commitments prevented me having my own, but I work from home now so am around during the day for constant supervision and regular play and toilet breaks. In the unlikely event of an emergency, I would of course contact you immediately and seek emergency vetinary services. Happy to discuss your pet-sitting needs, drop me a message. I would be happy to take more than one dog depending on the case. I work from home so am flexible for park walks and toilet duties. I am happy to work around the owners set schedule, if they for example get out for early morning walks I'm happy to maintain this routine I have a one-bedroom flat, so space is limited but I have more than enough room for small dogs or cats. I have bedding, treats, toys and am available all day to supervise
