About Dog Walkers
A dog walker takes your dog out for regular exercise when you're at work, away, or unable to walk them yourself.
A reliable local walker who knows your dog, your neighbourhood, and your routine is worth their weight in gold - especially for working dog owners.
Ask how many dogs they walk at once, whether they're insured, and whether they hold a dog walking licence from the local council if one is required in your area.
About Tingwall
Tingwall is a fertile valley in central Mainland Shetland, a few miles north-west of Lerwick, whose name derives from the Old Norse ‘Thingvollr’ — the field of the parliament.
The Tingwall Loch was the site of the Althing, the Norse parliament of Shetland, held on a small promontory in the loch from around the 9th to the 16th century — one of the most important Norse assembly sites in Scotland.
Tingwall is home to Shetland’s small airstrip, which operates inter-island flights to Fair Isle, Foula, Out Skerries, and Papa Stour, providing essential connections to some of the most remote communities in Britain.
The valley is one of the most sheltered and productive agricultural areas in Shetland, with good grazing land and a community that includes the agricultural showground used for the main Shetland County Show.
About Shetland
Shetland is an archipelago of around 100 islands — 16 of them inhabited — lying roughly 110 miles north of the Scottish mainland and 210 miles west of Norway, making it the most northerly part of the United Kingdom.
Lerwick is the capital and only town of any size, a compact and characterful harbour settlement that serves as the administrative, commercial, and cultural centre of the islands. Around 7,000 of Shetland’s 23,000 residents live in and around the town.
Shetland’s economy has been shaped by the sea for centuries: fishing remains a major industry, and the arrival of North Sea oil at the Sullom Voe terminal in the 1970s brought prosperity that was carefully managed through a charitable trust that continues to fund services and infrastructure across the islands.
The landscape is treeless, wind-scoured, and dramatic — sea cliffs, voes (narrow inlets), tombolo beaches, and open moorland define the character of the islands, and nowhere in Shetland is more than three miles from the sea.
Shetland has a distinct cultural identity that draws on both Scottish and Norse heritage — the annual Up Helly Aa fire festival, the Shetland dialect, and the fiddle music tradition are central to island life, and the sense of community across the islands is strong and self-reliant.
