FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How do I find dog walking near me in Edinburgh?

Walkers list the Edinburgh areas they cover on their profiles, from Stockbridge outward, so you can match someone who works near your home or your dog's usual park. Edinburgh covers Scotland, and you can filter by date to see only the sitters with availability when you need them.

What if my pet needs a vet during an Edinburgh booking?

The Protection Plan offers up to £20,000 for eligible vet costs if something goes wrong during the dog walking in Edinburgh, subject to the Protection Plan terms. Eligibility rules apply, including telling Petme support within 48 hours, so read the terms before you book.

How much does dog walking cost in Edinburgh?

Dog walking in Edinburgh typically runs about £14 to £22 per 30-minute walk, with rates across Scotland sitting near the middle of that band. Each sitter sets their own rate and you see it on their profile before you book. Petme adds 0% on top, so the rate you see is the rate you pay.

Are dog walking sitters in Edinburgh vetted?

Yes. Every Edinburgh sitter passes identity checks against a government-issued ID and a background check before their profile goes live. After that, the open and unfiltered reviews from other Scotland owners tell you how each sitter actually works with pets.

Is there a fee for Edinburgh owners?

No. Petme charges pet owners in Edinburgh a 0% service fee. You pay only the sitter's rate, and a slice of every completed booking comes back to you as cashback in your Petme balance to spend on the next one.

What does dog walking in Edinburgh include?

A Edinburgh walk follows the routes your dog already knows, with start and finish photo updates from a verified walker each time. Solo or small-group walks are the walker's choice and listed on their profile, so you book the format that suits your dog. Everything is arranged and paid inside the app, so there is a clear record of what was agreed.
