Connecting dog owners with local dog borrowers for walks, weekends and holidays.
BorrowMyDoggy is an online platform dedicated to connecting dog owners with borrowers for walks, weekends or happy holidays. BorrowMyDoggy is passionate about helping dogs get more love and exercise, borrowers get special pup time and dog owners get the peace of mind that their four legged friend is having fun.
Our goal as a company is pretty simple: we aim to make sure dogs get the care, attention and exercise they deserve while connecting local people through the love of dogs.
Have you got a human only trip or an un-moveable meeting coming up and found yourself looking for dog day care in Glasgow recently? Why not join the BorrowMyDoggy community and find a lovely local borrower to pup sit, who genuinely loves dogs.
How wagtastic would it be if you and your pooch could help make someone’s day? The BorrowMyDoggy community is filled with dog lovers, that for whatever reason can’t own their own dog but would love to spend some time with a four legged friend. Instead of popping your pooch into kennels in Glasgow, why not find a new friend for your pooch instead. Our borrowers don’t get paid to look after dogs, they do it simply for the love of dogs, which is pretty pawsome if we do say so ourselves.
You can view lots more BorrowMyDoggy reviews and other member stories on our testimonials page.
If you’re dog sitting in Glasgow and are looking for a short dog walk and possibly a picnic (weather permitting) then head to Alexandra Park. With maintained paths and flower beds as well as two ponds to explore, this makes for a chilled afternoon stroll with your pup.
As recommended by one of our lovely owners - this is a totally pawsome place for walkies. There are a number of woodland walks as well as a few trails to take you down to Erskine beach where your pup can take a swim. Be sure to pack a picnic as there are plenty of seats to rest while your pup makes friends with the other dogs on the beach.
Extending over an area of approximately 7 hectares, Dalmuir Park was originally a designed landscape. With an abundance of flowers, lots of open space as well as designated picnic areas this makes for a great dog walk especially in warmer months.
This is a slightly more rough and ready park, perfect if you’re a seasoned dog walker in Glasgow looking to pop your wellies on and get stuck into a challenging walk. The views are second to none and well worth the hilly inclines.

A local gastro pub with an extensive menu of all day mains and fine wines. Stop by, for a bite to eat and unwind with your four legged friend - the pulled pork chilli comes highly recommended!
The name of this place alone is pretty pawsome but with cosy booths, good sized portions and pooch’s more than welcome, this makes for a great lunch pitstop. Check out their instagram for a healthy dose of food envy.
Self proclaimed “lovers of dogs” this is a bar with a twist. An independent music venue hosting gigs and comedy with a menu suitable for vegetarians and vegans as well as welcoming pooches with open arms. Prepare for your pup to be spoilt and fussed as soon as they set paw in this bar.
