“Shianne was fantastic! This was our second booking with Shianne and our dog was so happy to see her! Shianne has everything we would want in a dog walker - clear communication, patience and skill with dogs, warmth and professionalism. I'll definitely look to Shianne any time I can't walk my own dog in the future.”
“Jeanette was fantastic! We looked forward to receiving her daily updates and photos from home. We felt very reassured that our dogs were being well taken care of. We will definitely call Jeanette to help with the dogs during our next vacation.”
About: I have grown up with cats and dogs, two dogs and 4 cats over my lifetime. Both outdoor indoor pets and I am very active with them. Pets need love and support from us as much as we need it from them. I spent three years volunteering at the Oregon zoo working with animals. I am flexible and creative, easily adapting to pet's needs. I am also patient and calm with them. I have loved animals since I was a kid. I refused to hit a piñata at a party because it was animal shaped. I will love your pets as if they are my own. I am always happiest when I am around pets. I work from home on a salaried basis, so my schedule is flexible. Especially from early morning until 3pm. I can do quick drop ins and/or long stays if they need a little interaction. I pay attention to location of plants, making sure they are out of reach and not a hazard to pets. I make sure all toys left out are safe, not too small to chock on. Making sure toys don't have anything to tangle up with. I'll watch to make sure pets don't eat too fast and get sick.
“Gabrielle has been fantastic with our dog. He has a tough time with new people and requires a little extra love and attention and she’s given him that. Professional and sweet. Highly recommend.”
About: Growing up, my family was very pet oriented! Mainly dogs and cats, but also a few other creatures. Growing up with animals taught me the basics, and as time moved on I honed my skills and learned to listen to animals and respect their boundaries. When I was in my teenage years, my parents had a couple litters of puppies that I would take care of a majority of the time. They were my favorite memories, and I will still tell anyone that will listen that their tiny ears were like velvet. We began training the pups before they were adopted, and I have trained quite a few dogs in some areas; my shining achievement so far is my dog balancing a treat on her nose- yet only for a few moments before she gets excited and flicks it off to eat it. In high school I volunteered at my local animal shelter, my duties there were help with cleaning and socializing animals, and talking with people about the animals I knew and helped them get adopted. I have also pet sat for different friends and families over the years, and have heard positive feedback each time! I have a motivation and passion to keep animals happy, and will go to great lengths to ensure their happiness. :) I am a currently a student at Chemeketa! I am mainly an online class taker, so I am in the Portland area most of the time. At the time of writing this, I am on summer vacation, so my schedule is much more flexible. Come September there will be some changes to my calendar, but for now I can work with you and your specific needs very easily. I cannot bring animals into my home (we have a cat that does not like to share) but I can ensure you that I am a very dependable person! I can walk dogs (or cats!) at their own pace and needs- whether that's in highly populated areas for lots of attention, or quiet trails to run around and enjoy nature. I also understand that there may be a level of unease for allowing a stranger into your home or around your beloved pets, but I can promise that the only thing I am focused on if ensuring your pets happiness!
“You have been the best dog walker we've ever used, hands down. Your thoughtfulness, genuine care for animals, and attention to detail are why we continue to book you. Thank you for everything!”
“Cynthia responded quickly to a last minute request for a weeklong daily commitment! And did a great job walking Joy (I can only assume, no complaints from the doggy)”
About: I’ve grown up with pets of all kind! I have family, friends, and co-workers that all trust me with their pets when they are away. I have taken dog training classes with my own dog, which taught me a lot. I am here to help your furry family members however I can! Please reach out with any availability questions! (: I currently work Monday-Thursday, so most of my availability will fall on Fri-Sun. However, with enough notice I can be flexible for your pets needs. If you are close enough to my place of work, I am happy to visit for your animals potty breaks on my own break time. I am also happy to do evening walks during weekdays. I have a spacious apartment for myself, my dog, and my cat. I will only be boarding feline friends at this time. My cat is very friendly/outgoing and would love some friends to come and visit! I will happily play, brush, feed, or whatever is needed to give your cat a great stay!
About: Since I could open my eyes, there has been a dog in front of them. Growing up, my family bred and raised AKC yellow labs. I also worked for a horse/dog breeder, helping take care and market Aussie puppies. I also have experience with senior dogs. My senior lab lost all function in his hind end towards the end of his life and I was his primary care giver. Senior care was the hardest and most fulfilling job I’ve had. I am currently in school to become a veterinary technician and I have been working in a clinic setting for almost a year now. I am taking a break from the clinic to focus on school and enjoy my summer. Send your furry friends my way!❤️🐾 I’m doing some other little side jobs but I am free otherwise. I have school that I need to attend to daily. I was working at a veterinary clinic but I am now taking a break to focus on school and enjoy the summer. I am also offering nail trims for an extra charge ;) I have two dogs at my house that are not friendly to other dogs. This means that I will be strictly keeping dogs at owners houses, streets, towns, etc. and there will be no chance of interaction between my dogs and any other dogs ☺️
“Colleen did a great job on long daily walks with our German Shepherd Dog. She communicated well, shared photos, and was consistently on time. We'd enthusiastically recommend her.”
About: I've watched dogs and cats for years and really enjoy it. I've always bonded and taken care of animals since I was a little boy. I work remotely and from home for the majority of the week. I have a lot of free time throughout the day as well as evenings. I care for all pets as if they're my own. I provide undivided attention and meet the needs that are presented to me on each occasion.
About: I have been a pet caretaker and have grown up with dogs, cats, birds, chickens, and also have a pet pig! My kids are grown and off in the adult world! With more time on my hands these days I would love to share it with your pet besties! I am home full time and have the flexibility to take care of your loved ones through out the day and give your pets attention while you are busy! For boarding, I have a fenced back yard and live in a quiet safe neighborhood in Canby. There is a wonderful trail for long walks with dogs as well. Play time and a schedule for eating, play, rest, and walks is always the goal to follow.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, bunnies, birds, hamsters, guinea pigs and fish since i was 10! I’ve been a dog sitter for 3 years now, and i’ve worked at a dog daycare so i was relied on to keep everyone safe and having a good time! I’ve fed 70-100 dogs daily at the daycare as well! I’m currently working as a dog sitter and i’ll have plenty of time to play with your pets! I’m available pretty much any time you’d like me to come let dogs out or feeding times! I have experience with dealing with dogs and cats that are stressed and away from home and i give them all the love and attention they deserve while their owners are away! I always double check everything before i do it for example if there’s a fenced yard, making sure gates and everything are secure!
About: I have been housing sitting for friends and family for the past few years. This not only includes dogs, but other duties around the house, and other animals (chickens). I also walk my dog often and have dogs lab size and smaller. I work two days a week so I have plenty of availability to be around dogs. I also am available to walk at a large variety of times and free majority of the week. I love treating them like my own. My dog just likes lounging and cuddles so I am very used to that. I also love being able to play with a dog that wants to! I may not love running, but I do enjoy a long walk with dogs.

David G.
“I have known David for the past 30 years, as he and his family are my next door neighbors. David and his family have had pets, both dog and cats, as long as I have known them. I think I remember that at one time he also worked or volunteered at the Metro Zoo. He is always friendly and enjoyable to talk with. I have trusted David to be in my house to care for my cats feeding and litter box cleaning while my wife and I are out of town. He even goes so far as to spend time socializing and playing with them during his daily visits. I will always consider reaching out to David first to watch my pets, and highly recommend him as a qualified and trusted pet caregiver to anyone.”
