Dog Walking Camp Murray

About: Hi! I’m Paula, and animals have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up helping care for animals on my family’s farm in Colombia and later gained experience working in a veterinary clinic, which taught me how to safely handle animals, recognize when something isn’t quite right, and provide attentive care for pets with different needs and personalities. Today, I share my life with dogs of my own and understand how important it is to find someone you trust when you’re away. Whether your dog loves long walks and playtime or prefers a quiet companion to stick to their routine, I adjust my care to fit what makes them happiest and most comfortable. I have experience with: • Puppies and high-energy dogs • Senior pets • Large breed dogs • Administering medications • Multi-pet households • Shy or anxious animals When I’m caring for your pet, communication is a priority. You’ll receive regular updates, photos, and honest communication so you always know how they’re doing. My goal is simple: I want your pets to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to provide attentive and consistent care for pets throughout the day. While I have a few work responsibilities that only require a couple of hours here and there, they don’t interfere with my ability to prioritize pet care. Additionally, while I do have dogs of my own, they are a shared responsibility within my household, meaning their care does not take away from my ability to fully focus on the pets I’m sitting. This flexibility allows me to accommodate regular walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and any special care needs without interruptions. Whether it’s an overnight stay, multiple visits a day, or drop-in check-ins, I ensure that pets stay on their normal routine and receive the attention they need while their owners are away. My priority is to ensure pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. I provide pet sitting exclusively in my client’s home, allowing pets to remain in their familiar environment, which helps reduce stress and maintain their routine. When caring for pets, I follow their specific schedule for feeding, walks, playtime, and any other special needs they may have. I make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship throughout the day, adjusting my care to match their personality—whether they need extra playtime, gentle reassurance, or space to relax. Additionally, I respect my clients’ homes by keeping everything clean, securing doors and gates, and ensuring a tidy environment while they’re away. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel at ease knowing their pets are well cared for.

“Bobbi is the best! I never have to worry when she is scheduled to come see my dogs when I am at work. I appreciate her photos and visit summaries, and she checks in if there are any questions or concerns. So happy to have her close by!”

About: Dog lover with lots of energy & experience! 🐶 Hi! I currently live with two golden retrievers, so I’m used to lots of dog hair, big smiles, and even bigger energy. I love being outside, going on long walks, and I’m quick on my feet which is perfect for keeping up with playful pups! I’ve spent plenty of time caring for dogs of family and friends, whether it’s walking, feeding, playing, or just hanging out and giving belly rubs. I’ll treat your dog like one of my own and make sure they’re happy, safe, and well-loved while you’re away. Need to take a weekend trip without your pup? I currently work part time and will be able to fit pet care, pet visits, and dog walking any time Thursdays, Fridays, and on the weekends. I know every pet is different, and I’m all about making sure they feel comfortable and cared for in their own home. I always treat your pet and your space with the same respect I’d want for my own. Making sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved is my top priority!

“I can’t say enough about how awesome Tabitha has been. She interacts with Kai like he was her own and as she has been stellar in working with him along their walks and I can see a huge difference in his reactions to other animals that he normally would bark non stop at. She’s his calming soul!”

“Amanda has been absolutely wonderful — not only as a dog walker, but as a truly kind and caring human. She has become someone we genuinely look forward to hearing from and have loved having as part of our pups’ lives. We always enjoyed her thoughtful updates, sweet commentary, and little notes after each walk. It gave us so much comfort knowing our dogs were in such loving hands. We feel incredibly fortunate to have had Amanda help us during such a busy and chaotic time, and we’re so grateful for the care, kindness, and joy she brought to our pups (and to us!). She is truly one of a kind! 💕🐾”

“Taylor and Audrey were very nice and did an awesome job. It was their first time walking, Stormie and I’ve already booked them for another walk.”

“Savina did a great job walking our dog while we were out for the day. We came home to a worn out and happy pup! We had peace of mind knowing Savina was watching over our baby. We recommend Savina and will book her for future walks!”

About: I have taken care of all types of dogs ranging from puppies to seniors, and all of their unique personalities! I have owned dogs with cancer and also a few reactive ones. Therefore, I know each dog has their own specific needs, and I love to spoil them in their own way! I currently work 2.5 hour shifts as a coach 3 times a week, besides that I am able to give them all the love and affection they need. Besides these short shifts your dogs will rarely ever be left alone! I have a dog of my own who goes on walks daily, and also plays enrichment games everyday! He would love to have a friend to do it with! I have a fenced yard, and a very friendly and energetic dog of my own to keep your fur baby busy! I take all dogs for a walk 1-2 times a day so they have time out of the house to go on an adventure as well! I try to take them on different routes each time so it’s more exciting and interesting for them, this also applies to my dog walking service! Besides walks, I also include multiple types of enrichment activities for them!

“Tiffany took great care of Hootie!”

“We have used Angela a couple times now and she is amazing with Jett! She is super kind and patient with him. When we got Jett he was super skiddish and afraid of everything and she has helped so much”

About: Throughout my life I've had 4 dogs. Currently I have two, with one being a 2-year-old pup I've been training ever since I adopted her and one that's pretty old and requires some special care. I used to work as a dog groomer for a business called Kendra's Grooming and I would watch her dogs when she went away with her family for vacation. For Kendra's Grooming I would bathe, dry, and hold dogs whenever needed. All of my classes are online currently for the summer and I'm open whatever day of the weekdays and Saturdays along with whatever time or for however long. So, I'm able to work whatever time is needed. I would be able to keep a constant eye on your pup, take them on however many walks you would want, and would be able to care for them in whatever way is needed. I've worked with animals with all sorts of personalities and in varying stages of health, so I can work with any form of animal, and I can accommodate for any of your pet's unique needs.

“Great experience with Isabella. She is cheerful, communicative and attentive. Definitely shows that she enjoys animals! Hope to work with her again.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs ever since taking home my first adopted dog when I was 13. I love all dogs, any age, size, or breed. I believe dogs can detect a gentle human being, and I always strive to make dogs comfortable. I have dog sat numerous times and now have my 2nd dog, a 2 year old shepherd mix. I am an RN and thought a great way to make money on the side would be to do what I love most. As an RN I work 12hr shifts but only 2-3 days per week. My flexibility will change week to week, but I will be sure to keep my availability current. For my own dog our back yard is fenced in completely, mostly 6 feet tall aside from a small section that is 4 feet tall. Toby has a dog door and can go in and out as he please to use the bathroom or enjoy the outdoors.

“Kati is a wonderful care giver to our puppy, Charli! Beyond just walking and playing with her, Kati takes time to engage and stimulate Charli so that she doesn't get bored. Kati is also incredibly kind and helpful with Charli since she got spayed. I can't say enough great things about Kati's abilities to care for our fur baby!”

“My name is Porgi the Corgi and I love my new friend Karen! She took me to my favorite playground; PLU campus. She can keep up with me better than my mahm's wheelchair. I'm super happy and ready for afternoon naps! Oh, yeah, mummy likes her, too. Kind, fun, friendly, and all kinds of nice words. ?”

About: I grew up surrounded by many animals. When I was 10 I had 4 guinea pigs, 2 dogs, 1 cat and stray farm cats. I spent time working on a farm with my family who taught me how to love and care for animals. I also pet sat throughout high school and later worked at a doggy daycare, gaining hands on experience with dogs of all ages and personalities. I love taking dogs on hikes and fun adventures while their pet parents are away. I even have a dedicated dog room filled with their favorite things to help them feel comfortable, loved, and at home until their family returns. 🏡 I’m a stay at home wife who loves baking, walking, going on hikes, and if I’m not hiking I’m home 24/7, so your dog will always have plenty of attention and care. When a dog stays with me, I follow their usual routine as closely as possible. We will also go on plenty of walks and Saturdays are reserved for fun hikes and extra adventures!! I will also annoy you with pictures and videos to update you! 😂💖 I provide a calm, loving home where pets are treated like my family. I follow their regular routines, provide daily walks, plenty of attention, and a safe, comfortable space so they feel happy while their parents are away.

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 20. I have personally had 9 dogs, 2 of which are still living. They are a German Shepherd and a mixed hound. I also foster dogs from time to time. I am comfortable with dogs of all ages, with dogs that need any special medication, as one of my dogs was a diabetic and blind. Also, I am comfortable with dogs that have aggression issues, as long as we work out how to address them before your dog stays with me, and no one gets hurt. Two of my German Shepherds have aggression issues that I had to work through. A little about me: I am going back to get my master's and teach. Currently, I am substitute teaching, and we undergo a very thorough background check, including fingerprints and a check with the FBI. I am willing to provide long-term boarding for deployments or similar situations. That is the case; we can discuss the details and the long-term care rate. I have a very large fenced yard that gives the dogs plenty of room to run and play. It is 1/3 of an acre. I have radiant heat in the floors of my house, and most of the time, the dogs lie on the nice, warm floor. I do have a camera in the backyard. I can give you access while your dog is staying here with me. :) I’m sorry, I cannot take any more neutered dogs. The few I have had have been working all over my house, and it doesn’t matter how much cleaning you do, or how special the treatments are, they don't work. It’s a big problem with unneutered dogs. I do hope you consider neutering your dog. I am currently working to go back and get my masters and education to be a teacher. I am available all days right now and flexible on times. I have a large yard that is fully fenced with a 6 foot fence. I treat pets as part of my family but keep them well behaved and mannered. I have fostered dogs before too, and I always try to meet the dog where they are at whether they are stressed, fearful, or have a lot of. For example, if they need a lot of exercise we go on walks and play several times a day. I find a happy dog is a happy life.

“Gives great information on what my dog does and helps me to know what behavior my dog does.”

About: I’ve been around dogs all my life and enjoy the unconditional love they provide. I am experienced with dog walking and in home care always taking your fur babies needs into consideration. I am open and flexible to your schedule and pet care needs. First meeting would be about meeting your pet to establish a relationship of trust and then figure what services best suite your fur baby I can provide safe walking and in home pet care. I have had several sessions with a dog trainer myself working on training and handling aggression and fear in dogs. Also interacting with them to provide mental exercises to keep them from getting bored.
