Dog Walkers in Buell, OR

About: Caring for animals comes naturally to me—I have a soft spot for every paw, whisker, curly tail and tiny personality. I’m patient, attentive, and deeply committed to making pets feel safe and understood. I know how important it is to trust someone with your companion, so I treat every pet like they’re my own, giving them comfort, consistency, and lots of love. My goal is simple: happy pets and peace of mind for you. I have owned pets my whole childhood and still raise two of my own. As a stay-at-home mom, I’m home for most of the day, which allows me to give pets lots of attention, supervision, and consistent care. My daily routine is very pet-friendly, with plenty of time for walks, play, feeding schedules, and check-ins throughout the day. I have one child in elementary school and a younger child at home with me, so our days are structured but flexible. This means pets are rarely left alone and can be part of a calm, family-oriented environment. I’m mindful of each pet’s needs and routine, and I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and included throughout the day. I understand the level of trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care. Every animal has their own comfort level, so I approach each one with patience, attentiveness, and respect for their boundaries. I focus on creating a safe, low-stress environment where they can feel secure and at ease. I’ll provide regular updates so you can feel confident your pet is happy and well cared for. I also like to keep pets mentally engaged with simple games, basic training reinforcement (if you’re working on anything), and sticking to their normal routine so they feel secure. Of course, I’ll always follow your instructions and your pet’s needs—whether that’s high-energy fun or a cozy, low-key day at home. I’ll also send updates and photos so you can see all the fun we’re having.

About: I have taken care dogs of all ages, breeds, and temperaments. I am patient and engage with each pet at their speed. Building trust and respect are my top values when caring for pets. As a volunteer at the Oregon Humane Society, I understand the unique needs that each pet has and am eager to meet them. I work a part-time job with 6–8 hour shifts on select days. I keep my availability on Rover up to date and will always communicate in advance if a scheduling conflict arises. I’ve cared for pets in a variety of housing situations. I take my time to understand what precautions I can take to keep all pets safe.

About: I am a Certified Dog Trainer and I have taken care of dogs since I was a young child. Pet care is what I do full-time. Their health and safety, as well as emotional and physical needs, always come first. Dogs are my favorite thing in the world! I also love cats& any animals! I have volunteered at dog rescues, starting when I was 16, as a dog walker clear until more recently as Adoption Coordinator and Assistant to the Rescue Owner! I have fostered and saved 116 dogs from euthanasia by training them and finding them all homes! I specialize in working with shy or fearful dogs to help build their confidence. I will love your dog as my own. No age or size restrictions. I love to take them on outings to the park! Woof! :) I worked for the Government (VA) 26 years and now I am an Animal Behavior College Dog Obedience Instructor and have plenty of time to take superior care of your babies! I can walk your baby around your neighborhood or go to the park and take them for a car ride. You will receive a lot of photos & videos from me because I love taking pictures of dogs! I I will cuddle and play with your baby because that is what I truly love to do. Your pet will NOT be alone or sad at all! Daily walks x 2 and lots of playtime included. Long and short term care available. Any information about your fur baby is important to me so please provide as much information as possible. Do they like to be lazy or active? What are their likes and dislikes? Do they get along well with other dogs at home? Does your pup like to be snuggled or not? Feeding schedule and walking schedule? (If you have a set time, I can keep that schedule as well.) I am available 24/7. I work full time taking care of pets. (My Own dogs can stay with my Mom if I am staying at your house!) Safety is my first priority! I do not want to be responsible for teaching an aggressive dog how to socialize. Please advise if your dog has any likes or dislikes that I should be aware of.

About: I am a huge dog person and have had a dog since the day I was born. When I was younger I was always volunteering at animal shelters and vet offices. I enjoy spending as much time with my own dog as possible and would love to have yours along for the ride. We like to hop in the car and go on adventures to all sorts of different parks and places. I also live on a 10 acre property with plenty of room to run around and beds to snuggle on. I love taking dogs on walks, even in the rain. I am a responsible, caring person and will treat your dog or cat like my own. My dog is very friendly and gets along with all other animals.

About: I have taken care of my family’s pets as well as friends and neighbors pets for most of my life because of how much I love animals. I worked in a pet grooming salon for a few years and besides leaning the skills of grooming pets, I also learned to treat their owners with the same amount of care. I am a college student heading into my summer vacation, and would love to spend more time with some furry friends. I am available any day and time of the week. I love dogs of all shapes, sizes, and ages. I always have doggy treats on me in case I meet a friendly pup and I love playing with toys or just cuddling if that is what they enjoy. I have two dogs at home, both are small, one enjoys cuddling and never plays with toys, and the other loves cuddling, but would much rather chase toys that I throw for him.

About: I grew up on a farm and have spent 23 years loving all animals, caring for pets, farm companions, and learning how to provide each unique critter with the love they deserve. In the pictures above, you’ll find several of my beloved pets, clients, and animals I have had the fortune of meeting! I believe a passion for helping animals has made me into a highly empathetic individual who has a keen eye for understanding details in animals, allowing me to provide care that puts your pet first. I try to go beyond the basic necessities to help animals feel safe, happy, enriched, and loved, in your absence. I have experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages and temperaments, including puppies, kittens and seniors. I display an intermediate level of training, including how to reinforce actions that benefit your companion, as well as steer away/de-escalate unwanted habits. I will always advocate for your pet, especially around other animals. Ample cuddles as well! Aside from cats and dogs, I especially enjoy caring for horses (feel free to inquire separately!), rodents, reptiles, chickens, and more. Available almost everyday/nights and open to all inquiries. Located in Eugene, Salem, and Portland. Questions? Shoot me a message! Communication is highly important to me and all messages will be responded to as quickly as I can. Recently graduated with a bachelors degree as well as running a creative art business from home, I create lots of time in my days to be on call for you and your pet(s)! Home for me is located in Eugene, Salem, and Portland, so I can provide more care across cities. For me, pet care is fulfilling and provides normalcy to my days. Whether it is my roommates 2 tuxedo cats with opposite personalities, my best friends cats, family, friends' dogs, neighbors, or somebody I just met in need of pet care, I am there!

I enjoy sending pictures and video updates of pets to owners throughout the day- feel free to ask for more (or less!) I do not offer my home for boarding. While in your home, whether it be drop-ins or stay-ins, I ensure utmost respect, cleanliness and privacy of your space and neighbors. I will follow your schedule, directions and pet needs with great care for detail. Communication is highly important to me and all phone calls and messages will be responded to quickly.

About: I have grown up being surrounded by dogs! My dad always had dogs in our home. I raised my pitbull/lab mixed breed dog Nala from when I was the age of Ten until she passed away when I was 21 years old. She taught me a lot about being a pet owner as well as a person! She was my best friend🤍 I am a very active, responsible, and empathetic person! I enjoy being outdoors going on long walks, hikes, and runs! I’m always down for a furry friend to tag along :) My current work schedule is 6am to 6pm Sunday through Tuesday :) I am available throughout the week on my days off for some pet care! I am respectful of other spaces! I like to stay occupied and am willing to go on adventures with your fur baby! I am full of love to give for animals. My full time job is caregiving so I’m the kind of person to place others needs before my own, but I do prioritize my health so I’m always in tip top shape for whoever/whatever needs my attention!

About: I've owned dogs since I was 8. Almost 20 years. I've done all my own training. I've trained puppies, administered shots and medication to senior dogs and cats, and everything between. I also have knowledge with rodents, cats, horses and other farm animals. I work 3 12 hour shifts Friday through Sunday. I get home around 6:30 those days but drive in the Yamhill/McMinnville area so stopping in for a quick walk or dinner wouldn't be a problem at all. My schedule Monday through Thursday is completely wide open for walking, drop ins, or pet sitting, however I will not be able to pet sit Thursday night through Sunday. I have 5 dogs who are get along very well with other dogs once properly introduced. They range from 25 to 65 pounds, most of them are very active. I have extra kennels but I also have a designated dog room with a comfy couch that two of my five sleep on at night. I live on quarter of an acre with a fully fenced in yard.

About: For over 3 years now I have had the wonderful opportunity to be a full time sitter for all sorts of wonderful animals with beautiful personalities. I have met dozens of dogs, sat bunnies, cats, birds, and reptiles. Before that I spent my entire life loving and caring for animals😊 My schedule is extremely flexible, so my availability really depends on the needs of the animals. Any time of day I am happy to hang out with some awesome pets!😊 I am happy to hang out with your animals in whatever environment they prefer. For example, if a dog loves to be outside, you bet I will be out there all day with it😊 I always do my best to follow rules and instructions given to me by the client; The pets happiness and safety are my #1 priority. My time is completely oriented around the needs of the pet I am sitting. So if they are up and about all night then I can be up and about all night. If they are lazy, I can be too. All that matters is that their needs are being met above all else😊 Safety is my number one priority when it comes to pet sitting. Beyond that I also prioritize the special instructions, needs, and concerns of my clients.
