Hello! I’m Emilie, a university lecturer based in Edinburgh. I grew up with dogs and currently have a border collie of my own. I also regularly look after friends’ dogs and cats, so I’m familiar with caring for pets with different personalities and routines. I enjoy being outdoors and would love to help local owners keep their dogs happy and exercised when work or other commitments make it difficult. Having a border collie, I appreciate the importance of both exercise and mental stimulation, alongside plenty of time to sniff and explore. I offer 30-minute dog walks, with the route and pace tailored to your dog’s age, energy and needs. I will follow your instructions carefully, including any preferences about interactions with other dogs. Before our first booking, I would be happy to meet you and your dog to get to know their temperament, routine and any particular requirements. After each walk, I’ll send you a photo and a short update so you know how they got on. Please get in touch to discuss your preferred times and what would suit your dog.
