Dog Walkers in Cougar, WA

About: Hello, my name is Kathy. I am a owner of an adorable black cat named Roger. Pets love me so much friends call me the pied piper when their dogs follow me around. I have 6 current clients that I pet sit for. Duties include, letting dogs out to go potty, taking for walks, feeding and staying overnight as needed. I can even bring in the mail and water your plants as needed. I prefer to work in Vancouver but am willing to travel to ridgefield, camas and battleground as well. Travel to Portland will cost an additional $10 each day for travel. I work part time but have a flexible schedule and can work around your pets needs. I am available for overnights m-s except for when traveling on vacation. I love taking your dogs for walks and playing them at home. I love to snuggle with your cats and dogs and will make sure they are well cared for and loved.

About: I've had dogs all my life! I love any kind of dog and have 2 of my own. My dogs are my furbabies and are completely part of the family, and yours will be too! I love playing, hiking, walking, going to dog parks and really anything else having to do with dogs. Rest assured your pup will be in great hands when they're with me! I work from home full-time, so I will always be available to your pet for any and all snuggles and potty breaks. I am in the Ariel/Cougar area, so I can freely accommodate this area, plus Woodland, Amboy, Yacolt and possibly Battle Ground. Am able to stay with dogs, walk, play, feed, administer meds, etc. If you have any questions, let me know! I look forward to meeting you and your dog! :) Working from home allows me to be with your dog 24-7 or if you need my services from your home for an extended period of time I can work from your house too!😄 I have a fully fenced yard with plenty of space to roam and play. I also have my dogs who would love to tire yours out! Arden especially!

“Julia was great! She was able to take my boy on a 30 minute walk with only a few hours notice. She was comfortable using a prong collar and continued his training with it. I am super thankful and will be using her more in the future!”

About: I’ve taken care of big mutts my whole life. My family has only ever rescued dogs. I love teaching my dogs tricks and hanging out with them outside. I’m currently searching for a job so right now this is my source of gas money. I have plenty of free time to live on pets. My animals in my home are constantly outside or napping inside. The second one of them wants to play outside they get the opportunity to.

About: I've taken care of many pets of all ages, such as friends & families, & pets of my own. I know how to be their support companion. I'm available: All Sundays & Tuesdays all day, and in the afternoon to evenings Monday, Wednesday, Thursday Not available: Fridays and Saturdays. Mornings on Monday, Wednesday, Thursday I give my pets a lot of love & care. I let my puppy get his energy out. I remember to give my cat her snuggle time. I make sure both water bowls are always full & they have food (depending if it's feeding time or not). I'm always looking for throw up/hair balls & poop/pee to clean up.

About: I have been the family, family friend, coworker, and word to mouth pet sitter since I was a teenager! I have done a variety of gigs! Cats, Dogs, Farm animals and those range from house sitting, boarding pets at my own home, to stop ins/ daily visits. I have experience with multiple animal sits as well of range of needs including feeding/ medicine schedules. My goal is to put your mind at ease as much as possible so you can focus on your time away! I currently work part time for a local farm! Since the season is starting to slow my schedule is opening up! I have Saturdays to Wednesdays open, with availability in the evenings after 5pm on Thursday and Fridays. I am flexible! I want your pets to feel as comfortable as possible! So that requires me to get as much information from you about what your pets needs and wants are. I have alot of flexiblity and room for us to be able to set things up so everyone is happy!

About: Hi! I've lived and worked with animals since I was about 9 years old. I grew up on a farm with dogs horses and cats and lots of other livestock babies. Just recently during covid also did foster care for many dogs. It gives me such joy and warmth hanging out with animals and seeing there personalities come out. We are all animals and I love being around them and caring for them. Thank you for your time! I'm currently between careers, I'm going on a trip to Costa Rica in late November and am looking for something to fill the time that I enjoy. I have alot of availability to provide services to lots of happy animals. I am a responsible adult that is very used to keeping a constant eye and ear on said animals wellbeing. I would treat these babies as if they where my own which would include constant adoration and positive encouragement.

About: I have 4 dogs of my own and worked at a vet clinic for several years~ I can administer medications & perform CPR, which I recently renewed my certification in. Senior animals hold a particulary soft spot in my heart, and I'm always delighted to help out creatures with special needs (young or old). As a former professional housecleaner, I also have experience going into clients' homes and understand how to utilize your space to do my job, while also respecting your privacy & home. If pet care can be considered a hobby, it's definitely mine, which may explain why I have 4 dogs.. I ensure they live carefree, tail-wagging lives and I would love to spoil your pet(s) too! My schedule tends to be full, but manageable, as I try to help as many people in the community as one person can; often, I can spin a little bit of magic to make a request work. I firmly believe in flexibility for others as I appreciate it in return and this helps to keep my schedule accommodating. I believe dogs deserve the absolute best in life and as such, mine live a life of luxury with high quality meals, lots of playtime, and minimal rules. That being said, I respect that not everyone has the same rules and allowances for their pets~ regardless of mine, I promise to put yours first when caring for your creatures.

About: **please note I am located in Winlock, WA. Rover is working on updating my information** Hello, My name is Kim! I have been pet sitting on and off for 18 years, and I've had dogs/cats and trained dogs for over 14 years now. I'vw been a veterinary technician and emergency veterinary technician for over 12 years. I currently work part time at SCVSEC. I am fear free certified. I have extensive experience caring for dogs with special needs, medical needs, senior dogs, and dogs that are on hospice care. I also have 10+ years experience in training dogs, from competitive obedience and agility, to service dogs, to working with fear aggressive dogs. I particularly love puppy development and training. I use positive reinforcement and have experience in clicker training, but I can cater to any training needs. I do offer bathing/grooming in my home for those that stay with us. I have experience in grooming and competitive conformation. I am only available for day care and boarding at my house, and I would love to schedule a meet and greet to see if we're a good match. We have a fully fenced yard. Our home houses 3 very socialized dogs, 2 dog friendly cats, 9 chickens (they have their own yard), and a chinchilla. Requirements: your pet MUST be up to date on age appropriate vaccines (DHPP, Lepto, Rabies). I do strongly recommend Bordetella and Influenza as well, due to recent outbreaks. Your pet must be crate trained, as I do not leave pets loose when I leave the house for safety reasons. For puppies, I will gladly work on their crate training. Pets are supervised 24/7, I have 2 cameras in the pet area for when I have to leave the house. I love to cater to the individual, so please tell me about your pet so I can make sure they have the best and most enjoyable stay! **For all overnight house sitting requests, due to circumstances I need to bring my 1 dog with me. He is well socialized with dogs and a polite house guest. I have lived in a dog daycare/boarding situation, so I am very used to keeping dogs separate and I am more than happy to keep him separate and he would stay in a crate. If you have any questions about this or about him, please feel free to ask! Normally I wouldn’t bring my personal dog, but due to several reasons we are a package deal.** I am home almost 24/7, aside from an occasional appointment, so my day revolves solely around caring for any and all animals. I have a very flexible routine, so I can cater specifically to clients needs and time frames. I treat every pet like they are our own and give them endless attention (I might spoil them a bit). I pay a lot of attention to instructions and I’m not afraid to ask questions. Making sure your pet is happy and comfortable while you are gone and giving exceptional care is my priority.

About: I have my own dogs and I’ve watched my families dogs as well. I’d say I definitely have experience in taking care of them so it’s not a worry. Typically free weekdays & busy weekends. My days are usually pretty flexible. Can adjust schedule if need be, just message & we can work something out! (: I offer lots of play time and one on one time with your pets. I’ll keep them safe, fed, and most importantly have fun 💖

About: I have been a pet owner for my entire life. I have experience with all different dog sizes and breeds, and I do particularly well with large dog breeds. I love spending time with puppies and helping to get them used to good behaviors. I also love helping train older dogs out of bad habits. I have yet to meet an animal that I haven't wanted to be friends with and I am very excited to spend time with your beloved pet. I currently work as a courier which means that I can fit pet care easily into my schedule. I am happy to fit pet needs into my schedule. Whatever your pet needs I am more than happy to help them with. I have my own car so I can take your pets to the park if that's something that they like. As long as their needs are laid out, I have no problem following instructions.

“Kristin is absolutely the best! Kristin was SO thorough in her care for our pup - lots of pictures and video during the walks. So above and beyond amazing to know my pets are in the BEST care possible when I am away from home. ❤️✨️”

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is the level of personalized care and attention I give to each dog. I take the time to learn their routines, personalities, and quirks so they feel safe, happy, and loved—even when their owners are away. I treat every pet like family, making sure they get not only exercise and care, but also plenty of affection and companionship. My reliability, patience, and genuine love for animals mean pet parents can have complete peace of mind knowing their furry friend is in caring hands. Pet care is naturally part of my daily routine—I start and end my day making sure animals are happy, safe, and cared for. Whether it’s morning walks, feeding, playtime, or just quiet companionship, I schedule my day around their needs. On a weekly basis, I make sure pets get plenty of exercise, enrichment, and consistency, so they feel comfortable and loved even when their owners are away. Caring for animals isn’t something I ‘fit in’—it’s something I genuinely enjoy and prioritize every day. Outside of caring for pets, I also do hair! In a client’s home, I treat their space with the same respect and care I’d give my own. I follow their instructions closely, maintain their pet’s usual routines, and provide updates so owners feel reassured. My goal is always to create a loving, stress-free experience for pets, no matter where I’m caring for them.

About: I’ve been the family/neighborhood pet sitter since I was in middle school, and I’ve been doing it professionally for a few years now! I like to make sure all the pets I watch are always happy and healthy, and treat them as if they’re mine. I have experience with all sizes of dogs, cats, rabbits, goats, chickens, and a little experience with some other critters too! I do this full time as well so I’m typically available for bookings. I always leave my clients homes looking as clean (or more clean) as when I arrived, as I used to work as a housekeeper and enjoy cleaning! I always use environmentally friendly and pet safe cleaning products. Will put funny Snapchat filters on your pets or just take goofy pics of them in general to send you throughout the day :) cute pics too though! Pet sitting is my full time job, and I love doing it! I just like to make sure other people’s fur babies are happy and healthy while their owners are away I have two friendly dogs and a cat that we aren’t super strict with. They’re all pretty well behaved and won’t over eat (we do occasionally switch to measured feeding just to make sure they’re at really healthy weights) have accidents, or have any behavioral issues, and we allow them on all the furniture. I also have bunnies, which do have much stricter diets and overall care.

About: I have tons of experience caring for and working with many different breeds! I have a ten year old dog myself, healthy as a horse and full of life 😊 I understand dog care very well and truly enjoy being around them! I have recently moved to Washington from out of state, and my schedule is quite open right now! This gives me the flexibility to take on pet care responsibilities quickly and easily. At my home I have a large fenced yard (half an acre) and one sweet older dog that plays very well with others! If your dog requires time away from other dogs I can accommodate that as well, and keep them separate. When caring for your fur baby at your home I will follow whatever rules you have there for them, ie crating, walks, playtime in the yard, etc.

About: Every dog needs companionship. There are many different breeds of dogs, but they are all taken care of basically the same. I have my own dog named willow who is currently with my friend in California. I've been watching my family's friends dogs for the last 2 years now and I'm looking to work more and willing to do whatever your pet needs to be comfortable and and happy as can be. I promise to take care of your pets, whether its feeding them at the correct times that you normally would and take them on long walks or to the dog park to run around. Any dog is welcome I will never turn down a dog. I would love the chance to meet your dog and give them a nice place to go while your gone.

“Rylee is fantastic. I can’t recommend Rylee highly enough. She walked my dog, and he absolutely lights up when he sees her — tail wagging, full-body wiggles, the whole package. You can tell she genuinely loves what she does, and dogs pick up on that instantly. Rylee is reliable, communicative, and always goes the extra mile. She paid close attention to his needs and quirks, and treated him like her own. It’s one thing to have a dog walker — it’s another to have someone you trust completely with your four-legged family member. That’s Rylee. If you’re looking for someone who is caring, professional, and genuinely exceptional at what she does, look no further. I was lucky to meet her, and anyone who hires her will be too.”

About: Lifelong dog owner with hands-on experience caring for puppies, seniors, and high-energy dogs. I provide patient, loving, reliable care tailored to each pet’s personality and needs. I currently am working a very flexible job in Vancouver! I have open availability in the mornings, and evenings - and can even drop in mid day if needed! I also live in Kalama - so I am available for lots of locations due to my commute! I treat every pet like they’re my own and focus on creating a calm, stress-free environment. Whether in my home or a client’s home, I prioritize safety, routines, exercise, enrichment, and lots of one-on-one attention so pets feel comfortable, happy, and cared for. I am the certified "Babysitter & Auntie" for all of my friends doggos - and it's become my favorite job! It has also showed me all the different ways dog's need cared for! I try to make sure I am fully aware of all the needs and what their daily routine is to ensure that we have the best time when together!

About: I’ve had dogs for as long as I can remember, the first dog I got was when I was 5 and I would walk her and play with her and teach her tricks. We currently have 3 dogs at my dads with a cat and 2 dogs at my moms house. I love spending time with animals and having fun with them I am currently in college playing softball and am home for the summer so I am free and looking to spend some time with animals and make some extra money! I can provide whatever care a client wants/do what they normally do for their animals and follow whatever a schedule an owner has setup for their animal.

“Lyon was so great walking my dog for me while I was injured. They were very responsive and flexible with me when I contacted them last minute. Highly recommend!”
