Dog Walking In Corbett-Terwilliger-Lair Hill

“I don't have enough good things to say about Colby!! He walks my dog for me and just goes above and beyond for her. I've never used a dog walker before and was nervous to try it out and Colby just made the whole process so smooth and reassuring for me. He has excellent communication and sends cute photo updates. It's everything to me to know my baby is in good hands!”

“Roberta is wonderful! Our Golden Retriever named Lefty absolutely loves her and always comes home tired and happy! We have so much peace of mind knowing Roberta is coming to walk our boy!”

About: I have several years of valuable experience with dogs and cats of all kinds! I grew up with a house full of pets, and currently have two pit-mix babies of my own. I also served as a pet resort manager for 5 years and am very knowledgeable on animal behavior, safety, exercise and nutritional needs, etc. I am comfy caring for a wide range of size and temperament, from the yappy yorkie to the boisterous Belgian Malinois! I have a patient and warm personality, and will make your pet feel comfortable and loved as if they were my own family! I am a graduate student who works part-time. I'm looking for opportunities to connect with sweet pups and kitties during my free time! I am a busy-bee and always looking for entertaining activities and hobbies. I can't wait to make owners' lives easier by providing quality attention and care to their babies! Whether it's tiring out your dog with play-time fun, or giving your cat their meals, I genuinely look forward to working with you and your pets! I am familiar with local parks and good nature spots from taking my own pups out for fun times! I have years of experience walking dogs of all sizes, and am comfortable in my capability to walk large dogs, heavy pullers, etc. I enjoy the gym and love being active, so I'm a perfect fit for high-energy babies who need a little extra exercise! I am also good with anxious or dog-aggressive pups, and can adapt to whatever activity they will enjoy to fit their needs. Whether it's long walks or cuddling with a couch-potato, I'm ready to make your pet's day better!

“Lucinda made multiple extra visits to my house (outside of scheduled walks) to try & get my very fearful dog to get to know her. She is very patient & understanding, I just wish my dog would be more cooperative! I appreciate how she went above & beyond to try & accommodate my scaredy cat dog. <3”

About: I have grown up and taken care of all types of dogs from puppies to seniors. My family raised Akitas growing up, so have lots of experience with large dogs! I am currently a nursing student at OHSU! I have 1 dog but would love to spend some time with some more furry friends to keep busy on my days off! I live on the south waterfront with easy access to walk to the trail along the river or go play in the parks nearby! I also have cameras set up in my apartment to keep an eye while I am not at home for short periods of time.

About: I have owned and cared for many animals over the years. I have extensive experience and I am dedicated to making sure your pets feel safe, loved and happy under my care. I am free all day, everyday. I am a university student home from studying animal sciences and would love to get some quality visits in! I don’t offer care at my own home but I am happy to stay or do drop ins at your house. I will ensure your fur baby gets quality cuddles and play time, properly fed, taken on walks as needed and endless love!

“Fantastic! Flexible, prompt, skilled and prepared!”

“Emily was fantastic! We’re super grateful for her and how well she cared for a Watson. He’s a super picky dog and he went for long walks with her and she gave us great pictures and updates”

About: Having grown up on a 20 acre farm for most of my life, I have cared for all shapes and sizes of animals - from horses to snakes, and everything in between! When I moved into an apartment for college, I missed the "dog energy" in our household and set to volunteering hundreds of hours at the Humane Society, which also included basic training skills and walking the most aggressive 100+lb leash pullers. This later evolved into working at a veterinary clinic where I was trained to monitor recovering animals and administer medications safely and with as little stress as possible through Fear Free certification. Animal body language is my second language! I love the outdoors as much as the indoors, and am more than happy to accommodate medical needs. ♡ If you would like extras taken care of during your pets stay or our visit, such as bathing, grooming, nail trims, or a run, just let me know! My dog, Leo, and I are constantly going on hikes and we are more than happy to tucker your pups out with a day trip, just reach out for rates. I currently work as a Braille Librarian for the state and used to teach Low Vision/Blind learners, and I am also fluent in American Sign Language (ASL), so I have a soft spot for dogs that may be Deaf, Blind, or DeafBlind. To top it all off, I am working on weaseling my way into Guide Dog puppy raising, and all the training tips that come along with that. ( : I commute to Salem Wednesday and Friday, which means my schedule during those days is usually pretty limited to anything after 430pm. Otherwise, my weekends are typically completely free and ready to be filled with whatever your fur babies need! Using the Fear Free method, I work with a pet's body language to determine what will work best in the current situation, and when methods may be effective versus stressful. I am ready to go at your pet's pace with whatever they may need, and clearly communicate the process along the way.

About: I've lived with dogs ever since a young age and find them to love me as much as I love them. I currently own a 2 year old Australian Shepherd. And with these types of dogs they love exercise and mental stimulation! Luckily for both of us, I do too! I used to own a Maltipoo and a German Shepherd mix that provided me with so much joy! Family members would ask me to dogsit, house sit, and I would often times volunteer to do so so that they can take a break and enjoy. I love taking my little friends to the park, nice strolls around the lake, or even hiking. Whatever the need, I'm your guy! My schedule is flexible since I am a student! Everyday I am already walking/running outside and thought it would be nice to share that experience with a friend as it provides both of us with therapy and sun! I am respectful, friendly, reliable, and communicate well with others. Dog parents and dogs will see how I interact with their family member and see that I am a great support for any services. Feel free to ask me any questions about my care!

About: Over 20 years of hands on pet care under my belt. I've been the go to walker and sitter for friends, family, and neighbors across Portland. From energetic malamutes who love winter hikes in Forest Park, to chill cats who want a lap and a scratch. I've handled them all. I know every pup's quirks, keep treats handy, and always come home with wagging tails and happy updates. Reliability is my thing: on time walks, clean pickups, and no drama. Let's get your furry crew out exploring. I am currently doing this part time and enjoy taking care of animals. I am fairly flexible on when I can be available for pet care. I love animals and treat all pets as if they were own. I can tailor to the owner and their pet to make sure everyone is comfortable.

“Lyle was wonderful! He came and took genuine interest in learning about our pups, including any potential issues during walks. He clearly cares about the dogs' safety and his own, which I find reassuring! My pups were clearly much less cabin fever-y when I made it home tonight. As someone who recently had a lot of major demanding life changes and has had little time or energy to give my pups the proper outlet for their bodies to get energy out and their minds to be stimulated enough, this is a huge thing that Lyle made happen. I've already rebooked with him and will continue to!”

“Kai is wonderful and picks up on all my fur babies traits without me even mentioning anything. Which shows me that they are being ever so present with her, and I adore that.”

“Susan was professional and kind to my dog. She asked the right questions and my pup was happy after she met her and her walk. I also love the pictures she took today.”

“Felicia has been walking Mocha regularly for a few weeks now and we have nothing but glowing reviews! She is an excellent communicator and very in tune with our Mocha and building trust with a nervous pup. Recently, our dog has been recovering from an injury and Felicia has done such a great job adjusting her activities with Mocha to fit her needs right now 😊”
