Dog Walking Fir Villa

“For several months David has been stopping by my West Salem residence practically every weekend to walk my small dog. I really appreciate his consistent communication with me. He has been patient with my dog as it took awhile for him to warm up to David. I would recommend David to anyone needing a pet care. .”

“My dogs adore Trina and are super excited when she shows up to walk them. She is very reliable, kind to the resident kitties and the dogs would trade me for her in an instant.”

About: I am a remote worker with extra time available. I grew up with labs and Shih Tzus as well as cats. I've been dog sitting for the past 8 years and have done volunteer camps at the Willamette Humane Society. I am pretty flexible this summer for house sitting, dog walking, or drop ins. I can feed, walk, play with, cuddle, or even bathe your dog! I'm an animal lover and would be fine with other pets at the house, too. Watching and caring for dogs, cats or other pets is something I love to do on its own, aside from it being a "job." This would be a great way to spend my time. I am currently working part time, so will have time most days for drop ins, walks, etc. I am also available some weekends, as well. I have 2 dogs and 2 cats at home. If your pet is friendly, then it could be an option for them to come stay at my house.

“Astrid took great care of my pups and helped them be secure and happy while I was out of town. When I’m in town and she walks them, I can tell by the way they greet her what a big treat it is for them to spend time with her. I appreciate Astrid’s sensitivity and creativity and skill in interacting with my two dogs who are quite different from one another in energy level so that they both get their needs met for activity and exercise and affection.”

About: My whole life I have had an abundance of animals, ranging from frogs and chickens to cats and dogs. I know about animal psychology and the care needs required for all types of animals. I'm currently a full-time college student, however I've worked out a schedule to have ample time to take care of your furry friends. Currently my free all days of the week. While at your house I will ensure your pets needs are fulfilled in all regards. Including any playtime they may need, feeding requirements, and anything else you let me know of.

About: I was born and raised on a ranch caring for many types of animals. I have extended my background from cows, horses and sheep to training, breeding and so much more with dogs. I am respectful, patient and have an overall love for every animal! I am currently a stay at home mom and looking for other work when I stumbled upon Rover. I love animals and am very excited at the chance to be around them more! I have a fenced yard and my own dog as well who gets along great with everyone. I have crates if needed and a park very close to run some energy out!

“We love having Aidan come visit our pup! He loves his time with her. Aidan is great at keeping me updated on her schedule and what they do during their daily play time/walks.”

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!

“Thank you, Natalia, for your wonderful help with my pup Cali! I appreciated your professionalism and meeting upfront to rehearse, and I continue appreciating your excellent results, and time getting my Cali into the park... so glad to come home to a smiling pup, your great photos make me smile every time, too. Natalia is an excellent choice, I am happy that we met!”

About: I specialize in taking care of cats, dogs, fish chickens and more. I love the outdoors and being around all animals. I grew up on a farm in a little village in Ireland and I was surrounded by all kinds of animals. I spent some time as a nanny in Portugal and now I'm a professional pet nanny. As a lifelong animal owner I have also been pet and animal sitting for friends, family and clients for over 35 years. Dogs, Cats, Chickens, Pigs, Fish, Frogs, Goats, Donkeys, Ponies and Horses… I have fed, medicated and cared for them all. I am trustworthy, dependable and I will treat your fur family member just like my own. I'm not afraid of a little hard work or a nervous fur baby. I am a Level 2 Reiki provider I know how to connect with animals on a spiritual energy level in a calm manner which in turns gains their trust and can help relax them if they are anxious or have separation anxiety. I am happy to administer medications. All of my cats can do tricks for treats such as sit, high five, spin around, give the paw and meow on command. Cats are smart! I would love to be considered for all your pet and housesitting needs. I have never met an animal I didn't love. Working from home affords me a very flexible schedule. I am looking for pet owners in my local area that need a reliable caring drop in or full time care home & pet sittings. I will clean up after the pets and myself, collect mail and take out trash and water up to 10 plants if needed free of charge. If you have more than 10 plants or need a garden watered I am happy to help please request additional plant care at time of request/Meet & Greet. I can provide services in your home where your pet is most comfortable. Please note that per Rover guidelines each overnight stay is for a period of 24 hours per night charge. If additional time is needed after an initial overnight there will be an additional "half daycare" or "full daycare" charge, the amount can be discussed at the meet and greet and will depend on the amount of hours/ pets and extras such as medications or special needs. Please note that Extended stay rates listed are charged per day for the entire stay per night once the stay is 7 days or more.

This applies regardless of auto feeding, auto water bowls or auto litter boxes which can fail, be knocked over, spill or shut off in a power outage. Cats are considered companion animals and need care and attention and someone to monitor their health and emotional wellness. I am not currently providing boarding services at this time. I am happy to follow any masking, hand washing and sanitizing practices during Meet & Greet and visits if needed, please request prior so I can be prepared in advance. Thank you so much for your consideration, I would love to meet your pets/animals and see if it's a good fit for everyone. Please send me a message if you would like a 100% FREE 30 minute meet and greet. Thanks so much for looking and I look forward to meeting you and your fur babies! :) Aoife (EEEEEFAAH) I work from home as an artist so my schedule is very flexible. I have 4 indoor cats that are taken care of by my family while I am on overnights. I love to spend quality time with the animals I care for and I make sure that I interact with them frequently such as playtime, treat time, feeding time, puzzles, relaxing time and walks if needed. During the meet and greet I try to get an idea of what the animals routine is from their owner so that I can make the transition as smooth as possible causing less anxiety and stress for the animals while they are in my care.

About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of dogs, from Mini Alaskan Eskimos to German Shepherds. I grew up around Golden Retrievers. I also have a lot of experience with cats.

“Ally is the best! First of all, my dog LOVES her. Secondly, she’s so easy to work with. I feel relaxed and stress-free when I know Ally has my pup covered!! Thanks Ally!!!”

“I recently got a puppy and booked an hour with Erica as part of his socialization process, to get him used to spending time with strangers. Erica and her daughter did an amazing job and I could tell Raider warmed up to both of them right away and felt very comfortable. It’s SO important for young puppies (especially giant breeds) to have positive experiences with new people. Thanks for helping to make sure I don’t wind up with a 120lb dog that’s afraid of people 🤣🖤Very much appreciated! 100% recommend”

About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up, my parents raised and trained wirehaired pointing dogs, which gave me an early introduction to dog behavior, training, and responsible pet care. Today, our home is shared with five dogs and two cats, giving me hands-on experience caring for pets of all ages, sizes, personalities, and needs. Our pets range from young adults to seniors, including a senior Chihuahua, a spirited Chiweenie, a 120-pound Boxer/Mastiff mix who still thinks he’s a lap dog, and two rescued littermates with unique backgrounds and endless affection. Because of this, I am comfortable caring for pets at many different life stages—from energetic younger animals to senior pets who may require extra patience, monitoring, and specialized care. I have experience with medication administration, basic grooming, nail trimming, bathing, litter box maintenance, and recognizing when something may be off with a pet’s health or behavior. Most importantly, I understand that every pet is an individual. Whether they want to play, cuddle, explore, or simply relax in their favorite spot, I strive to provide safe, attentive, and compassionate care that helps them feel comfortable and loved while you’re away. ❤️🐾 I currently work 8 to 5 Monday through Thursday. However, if need be, I can come in before work, after work and anytime of the day Friday through Sunday. Our dogs have a huge yard to play in, cozy beds to sleep in and get special treats a few times a week. There is never a shortage of pets and cuddles with 7 animals.
