Dog Walking Buckman

About: I've cared for neighbors dogs of many different temperaments and with different needs. I've practiced in turning down dogs that beg, but always happy to reward them for good behavior with scratches and pets. I've also cared for dogs with arthritis that required assistance down the stairs, and anti-slip boots among other health concerns. I am available throughout the week and weekends. I do not work an in-person job so my schedule is very flexible. I can give your dog as much attention as they deserve. I can provide pet sitting in your home so that your dog never has to be left alone, or I can drop in as needed for walks, feeding and attention. I'm always happy to take your buddy along to run errands. I'm tidy, organized and responsible - I am always mindful to not leave things out that are not for pets. I mostly get around on bike or walking, but have access to a reliable car as well.

About: I love spending time with pets and walking outside. I've taken care of dogs since childhood, and now I live between Laurelhurst and Mt Tabor, so there's no shortage of trails in the area. Let's go!! I'm currently taking a sabbatical after several years working in tech, so I am available for your pet at all hours of the day! Staying in their own home is much less stressful for your pet than a trip to a boarding facility. Allow me to help your pet stretch their legs! I also have many years experience administering medication to grumpy cats, through my own grump, Moe.

“Lena did a great job walking my sweet but reactive Cowpie. She gets so sad when I'm away and Lena was able to get her out the door and make it happen.”

“Kayla has been a great addition to my pup’s life while I'm at work! She is very communicative and gives me great updates on my little lady after each walk. I have already rebooked with Kayla and will definitely continue to request her spend more time with my pup in the future.”

“I'm grateful we found Alicia to walk our Ruby. She loves and understands dogs. Our dog can be reactive meeting new people, yet Alicia new how to easily navigate this. They quickly became the best of friends! She even worked on some training with her during the walk and took adorable pictures. Thank you!”

“Mark was fantastic with Oso and was good at being firm but gentle. Oso seemed happy and pleasantly tired! Definitely would have Mark walk him again and would recommend Mark!”

“My dog is getting up in years and some days has energy and some days wants to take it slow. I can always count on Tayla to be sensitive to her needs each day and tailor her walk. I couldn’t be happier with her sensitivity and kindness to my dog.”

Sarah F.

“Jen is such a big help for me! She walks my mini dachshund once a week and does amazing with him! Very communicative. My cats also love seeing her when she picks up my dog!”

About: I have experience with cats and dogs of all ages, shapes, sizes, and personality. I have trained puppies before (and even my cat can do tricks) as well have helped care for elderly pets who need extra attention. I am very skilled at reading animal body language and finding the right way to connect with each unique furry friend. My schedule is very open! I currently see clients on Tuesday afternoons/evenings for an internship, but otherwise my schedule is open and flexible. There are occasional dates where I have other obligations, but I generally am able to work with most schedules. NOTE: Not looking to house sit for longer than 3 days at a time. I am very respectful of the spaces of others, and aim to leave no trace other than my care for your pets. I am training to be a therapist/counselor, so I very much understand how fundamental mutual trust, boundaries, and communication are in a healthy working relationship and take that extremely seriously regardless of what service I am providing.

“Storm always enjoys his walks with Ivory! I am so grateful to have her as part of Storm’s team, she’s very reliable and takes such good care of my pup.”

“Carlie has been really awesome with dog walking for my pup, Gus, during the work day. Gus is reactive towards other 4-legged creatures, and Carlie has been doing a great job with giving him quality walks while managing their encounters with others. Carlie has also been consistent time-wise and reliable so far.”

Bailey K.

“I give Ursula 5 stars and this is not something I would do typically this early in the services you guys are providing but my Barney spotted her in my parking lot and I cracked open the window so he could get her scent and bam ! He immediately loved her,no matter who it is Barney will bark at any one coming up my stairs and he did not Bark when Ursula came up AND he whimpered when she left. She updated me every step of the way with multiple pictures and lastly she has gave me peace of mind so i can focus on work .”
