Arthur broke into the Celtic first team aged 17, coming through the club's Youth Academy. In December 2014, Arthur transferred together with Heather Richards from Celtic to Hibernian,[2] where she was part of the team that reached the Scottish Cup final and finished second in the league.[3]

In January 2016, after a year in Edinburgh, she joined Bristol City in the FA WSL 2.[4] On 14 February, she scored on her Bristol debut in a 7–1 win against Queens Park Rangers in the FA Cup. She finished her first season at the club with three goals in 20 appearances. On 8 February 2017, Bristol announced that Arthur had signed new deal with the club.[5] She finished her second season with two goals in 8 appearances.[6] In July 2017, she signed a new contract with the Vixens.[7]

Arthur joined Aston Villa, who had just been promoted to the WSL, in July 2020.[9] She was released by Villa during the summer of 2022 after two years at the club.

Following her release Arthur signed for Championship club Crystal Palace[10] and was part of the team that won the Women’s Championship in 2023-24 gaining promotion to the Women’s Super League for the first ever time in the clubs history. In June 2024 she signed a one-year contract extension keeping her at the club until the end of the 2024-25 season.[11]
