Local dog walkers love the city's wealth of walking spots — Holyrood Park, the Meadows, Inverleith Park and Cramond Beach are all popular for group walks. Cat sitters cover home visits across the city centre, Leith, Morningside, Corstorphine and the surrounding suburbs.
Pricing is in line with the rest of Scotland: around £12–£16 for a 30-minute dog walk, £10–£14 per cat-sitting visit and £25–£35 per night for home boarding. Many Edinburgh sitters also offer extras such as plant watering, post collection and short overnight stays.
Reputable Edinburgh providers will be licensed by the City of Edinburgh Council where required (for boarding and daycare) and carry public liability insurance. Most are happy to arrange a free meet-and-greet so you can introduce your pet before any bookings begin.
