Couldn’t be happier with Grant! Before his first walk with our dog, Rex, he took the time to meet with us in his own time to make sure we and Rex were comfortable, which we really appreciated. Rex can be a little reactive at times but Grant handled him perfectly. It was clear from the start he was confident, experienced and understood how to manage him in a calm positive way. After the walk we were updated with photos and how it went which gives us a piece of mind. We would highly recommend Grant to anyone looking for a caring, professional dog walker!

Claire was great. Met Rudy beforehand, maintained good contact and kept me updated about Rudy's walk. They went to the beach which is his favourite place. Would highly recommend Claire and would be delighted for her to care for Rudy again.

About: Hi I’m new to Rover but have over 20 years experience of looking after my own and clients’ dogs. I will treat your dogs just like my own, ensuring they receive unique and appropriate care whilst they are with me. I appreciate all dogs are so different and will go the extra mile to make them feel safe in my home. Having had many dogs into old age, senior dogs are perhaps a speciality of mine. I am unphased by larger breeds as I currently have a Romanian shepherd dog aged 1. She is very friendly and loves the company of other dogs. I live 5 minutes walk from the beach at Greenan Shore and just a 5 minute drive to the two beautiful local parks. The safety of your pets is paramount, I will only walk off lead with your written permission. As I have a 10 year old son, I can only take pets who are completely safe with children. My son also knows not to over pet a dog and respect space having had a very tricky rescue dog of our own in the past for many years. I am fully insured by Cliverton Pet Insurance. I work mainly from home so your pets will not be left unattended for more than 3 hours. If you have specific requests I will discuss these fully with you. I have an enclosed, private fenced garden. There is also plenty of room in the house for your pet to roam around freely. I live in a quiet, safe neighbourhood.

About: I have always had pets in my home (mostly cats and dogs). I dog walk for a variety of my friends and family and have experience dog walking different breeds. I also cat sit and many have been cats that are rescued. I am excited to become and dog walker and pet sitter when required! I have recently went self employed and have so much time to dog walk and cat/dog sit when required. I prefer being self employed meaning i can do this when I want to and which best suits the owner. I am such an animal lover and want to spend time caring/ looking after animals as I see this as more of a hobby compared to a job because I love it so much. I’ve walked dogs small and large and have gained experience feeding, walking and bathing dogs.

About: Growing up I have always been surrounded with dogs and other animals and have absolutely loved taking care of them . Unfortunately now due to my job as Cabin crew I’m unable to have a dog of my own full time as it’s not fair to a dog to be out the country as much as I am. That is why I would really love to help take care your pets in my free time from work which is very flexible month to month ! Whether that be dog walking or house sitting I can’t fit in with the best needs of you and your fluffy loved ones. With my schedule at work I have a lot of free days through the month . And I will update my calendar on here regularly so that you are always aware of my availability. I’m more than happy to fit around your dogs needs and wants with regards to outside walks and house sits which we can discuss when booking.

About: As a 4th-year veterinary medicine student at the University of Glasgow, caring for animals isn’t just what I do—it’s who I am. I’ve managed a cattery, looked after my own beloved dogs and cats, and regularly cared for pets belonging to friends and family. Over the past four years, I’ve gained hands-on experience in various veterinary practices, deepening both my clinical skills and my understanding of what pets truly need to feel safe, loved, and comfortable. Whether it's cuddles, playtime, or medication support, I treat every pet like my own—with patience, compassion, and genuine care. I am currently transitioning into my final year at vet school which is claiming to be very full on leaving little free time however I update my calendar regularly so it’s usually accurate. With this being said I always try my best to fit in walks and drop ins so please do reach out and we can try sort something! I provide attentive, loving care tailored to each pet's needs. This includes feeding, walks, playtime, and keeping to their routine to ensure they feel safe and comfortable.

About: Dogs are a huge part of my life! I’ve grew up around all kinds of dogs, myself and my family have owned multiple dogs which I took a large role in training, walking, playing with and best of all being rewarded with unbeatable pup cuddles! I’ve pet sat or checked in on family/friends dogs while they’ve been out of the house for extended periods of time, allowing them peace of mind knowing their dog was looked after. This gave the dogs an opportunity to not be left alone, go on walks that tire both their bodies and mind (all that energy from sitting in the house needs to be released!) fill up food or water bowls, sneak a little treat when allowed and overall just be a friendly face for the dogs to know they aren’t alone! My love for all animals, along with the dependability owners can have on me, is the main reason why your fur baby would be in the safest hands and enjoy their time spent with myself all while you know your pet is being well looked after. I’m currently a full time student which leaves me loads of spare time to spend with your fur babies! I’m available 3 days during the week and 1 at weekends so flexibility to work around your schedules is available. I love keeping active and walking anyway so having some company on my daily walks, while getting to enjoy time with cute pups (because let’s face it, they’re always gonna be our pups!) sounds like a perfect opportunity. Caring for a pet in your home would look similar to creating both physically and mentally stimulating activities. Activities could be tricky training, scent work (treat hiding), puzzle feeders or even switching up the walking routes for your pets to explore new scents and environments! There will be plenty of time factored in for your pets zoomie, we all know they can’t be controlled! and much desired playtime. Your pet won’t feel alone or bored during the time you’re out of the house. Your peace of mind and their safety is number one priority always :)

It was total peace of mind having Natalie walking Skye whilst I was away for a short break. Natalie took time to meet Skye beforehand and get to know her likes and dislikes. I was kept updated each day including pictures. Skye thoroughly enjoyed herself with Natalie. I would definitely book Natalie again in the future.

About: I am a 30 year old woman with a 4 year old Siberian husky and a 2 year old tabby cat. I am an animal lover and like being outside come rain or shine so be assured your pets will have the best walks or cuddles asked for. I have been brought up around animals my entire life with both sisters having 2 dogs each and my parents having a family dog whilst growing up. I do work full time as a teacher but I have various holidays throughout the year where I am able to walk or have your animal overnight if you are away. Walking your dog or cuddling your cat is at the highest priority. I am very trust worthy when entering your home. I will send details of my visit and pictures of your pet being looked after and attended to.

Michael is a softly spoken person who Seren and Sam have taken to ......Seren is a handful but Michael is getting the best out of her and has begun a training programme with her which will help her be less anxious and manic. I have already booked more sessions and more than happy to have him working with Seren and walking Sam.

Cloe arrived promptly every day and took Sweetpea for a nice long walk (and a play) in our local playing field. I'd happily book her again next time we need some help with Sweetpea.
