Our westie Harry goes to Pet Helpers once a week and he LOVES it! Gary and his team not only know how to lovingly care for our cherished pooches but also how to deliver a first class customer service. Can not fault them at all and when your dog is pawing at the gate to get to the van as Gary has a short natter you know you choose the best dog walking service out there! If Carlsberg did dog walkers....( is that the right advert theme?!! ) Don’t delay book today is what I’d say! Thank you Gary and team More...

Seeing Murphy getting so excited when he gets picked up makes me so happy that he loves going with you, it's so obvious that he wants to go which settles my mind. He's always exhausted when he comes home and is settled. Thank you so much More...

After being let down by another dog walker we turned to Gary for help. He impressed us straight away when he arrived at our home and ‘clicked’ immediately with our dogs. He sat on the floor with them and gave them cuddles which they loved. We were a little surprised that one of our dogs let Gary get so close so quickly as she had, until then, seemed a little nervous around new people. Dogs come home tired, happy and content which makes our lives much easier. We’ve never had a situation yet where Pet Helpers Scotland couldn’t help us! Thank you More...

Our dog Loki goes with Gary and the team around once a week depending on work commitments etc. His social skills have come on leaps and bounds since he started at pet helpers and he absolutely loves his time there - when I tell him that uncle Gary is coming he goes straight to the window to wait for his pickup . We aren’t always the most organised and sometimes don’t give a huge amount of notice when booking Loki in. Gary’s always been extremely flexible in this regard and hasn’t let us down once. On top of all that our wee monster comes back happy and knackered every time and we can tell he benefits hugely from his time with pet helpers. We wouldn’t trust anyone else. Five star service!

Gary came to our house over a year ago to see our dogs and Monty and Honey chose him immediately! Although his business has grown swiftly since then his approach and responsiveness remains unchanged. Our pooches love him, (and his field) and we are ever thankful that he took them on, dealing flawlessly with their excitable nature and our unpredictable work schedules. Can’t recommend team Pet Helpers highly enough. More...

Gary has been looking after our puppy Ruby since she was only about 10 weeks old (doing drop ins). She is almost 1 now & adores Gary & at the mention of his name her ears pop up . She loves socialising with all the other dogs & has made some best friends. Gary always goes above & beyond & offers advice support when he can. I recommend him to all dog owners , especially as he offers a pick up/ drop off service which saves clients extra stress. More...

I couldn’t recommend Gary at Pet Helpers enough. He is so caring and patient with the dogs they really are drawn to him. Our boy found it hard adjusting to a dog walker coming into the house after always being at day care. Other dog walkers gave up but Gary took it in his stride. We received regular updates on pick up and drop off times as well as pictures and videos of what Mac had been up to on that day. This is a man with a big heart. Thank you from our family for loving our boy like we did ❤️❤️ More...

Left our wee boy Bailey here for his first 4 days boarding.

He's only 5 months old and spoilt rotten at home with play and love.

It was our greatest concern that we might not find somewhere that would be suitable for Bailey as he's quite needy at his age.

The thought of having to put him in standard kennels at such a young & vulnerable age never sat well with us, so we asked around our other 'doggy' friends for recommendations for daycare and boarding.

Straight away, we were recommended Gary at Pet Helpers Scotland.

This truly is a home from home for your dog.

Between Gary's caring and attentive nature, loving family and resident dogs, Bailey settled into their friendly home instantly.

I could see clearly from the outset that Bailey was happy, and he couldn't care less when I eventually left him. A first!

Gary is fantastic with giving regular photo/video updates of your pooch via Whatsapp/facebook/carrier-pigeon, so you will always feel reassured that your pet is getting the attention that they deserve.

Ultimately, our dog's happy, and so are we.

Fantastic service.

Neil and I were delighted when Gary popped round to meet our little Cockapoo Milo at 8 weeks old it was like they had known each other forever, we then arranged for Milo to be collected by Gary's lovely wife Claire on a Monday-Thursday (due to work) and go to half day care at the yard! Each day has been such a relief to hear how he is doing from day 1 and see his pictures online, know he is with the best hands possible. We cant thank Gary, Claire and crew enough for their help and that they are always on the end of the phone. Milo has come on heaps and bounds since his day care, he is now 14 weeks and loving life & the ladies!!!

As an overprotective dog mama I was very anxious about leaving Jax with a dog walker, after a trial run with another company we soon found ourselves at Pet Helpers Scotland.
Gary puts all my nerves at ease and firstly only put Jax with another husky (Ringo) then introduce a boxer (Mac), today was Jax first time with the whole gang and from the updates via text and videos/photographs I can see how happy our boy is!
He seems confident and excited to be around the other dogs and this is thanks to Gary.
Jax comes home very tired which is an achievement! It’s very hard to tire out a husky!!
We really appreciate everything you have done for Jax over the last few weeks and we will definitely recommend you to anyone who’s looking for a committed and passionate dog walker. Thanks again, Amy, Calum and Jax

Absolutely fantastic service. We recently rescued a husky (from an abusive owner) and was very nervous to send him to a dog walker but with daily videos and updates my mind was put at ease. Ringo has such a brilliant time with all his new friends (jax & mac especially) & comes back knackered... which really isn't an easy task lol.
He is much calmer with other dogs also.
