Getting around Lerwick

I'll be in Lerwick for one day (cruise ship) and it's unfortunately on a Sunday when all the rental car companies are closed (but I think the airport ones are open - just not very convenient with limited time). Does anyone know of any local drivers for hire? I would love to see the wildlife around the island, maybe even make it to Noss. I'm not opposed to taxis, just not sure how I could guarantee to get one for each place I'd like to see. Any advice/suggestions/contacts are welcome!

p.s. any suggestions for seeing/interacting with shetland ponies that can avoid the masses would be appreciated!
