Dog Walking Fircrest

About: Gigi loves all the babies! I’m a cat & dog mom and Gigi to 3 grandkitties who live right next door. Would love to spend time with your little (or big) sweetheart too. Confident with dogs of all sizes including reactive dogs, meds administration for dogs and cats, and am available for overnight care. I’m currently working from home and make my own hours so can easily work around your schedule. I’m available for drop-in’s, walks, and overnight care. I have a calm energy most animals welcome and I’m usually able to gain their trust early. Having raised 2 dogs and several cats through medical conditions and several moves, I’ve become very attuned to their body language which helps me to understand their needs and wants.

About: I’ve had dogs, cats, and small animals my whole life. I’ve even fostered with rescues in the past. I recently lost my own dog and thought maybe I could cuddle someone else’s while they travel. I work from home and have a fully fenced yard which your pet would have access to at any time they like! I work from home for the Dept of Veterans Affairs and usually have the back door open for access to the fenced yard throughout the day. Outside of errands, I am typically home with them. I have a fenced yard with plenty of access for the pets. When they’re here, they’re family so if they want in the sofa: great! Sleep in bed: even better! Or if they prefer the safety of their crate, that’s good too. I want them to feel comfortable. Unless they’re from the same household, I prefer to keep one dog at a time to make sure they get undivided attention. But, if they’re social and like to play, I live super close to the dog park! If you just want drop-in visits or walks, just let me know how I can best accommodate and I’ll be happy to work something out to suit your needs.

About: I have cared for all sorts animals my whole life, from as small as a gerbil to as large as a llama. I have previous experience working in a boarding kennel and veterinary office. I have experience working with special needs animals and administrating medications. I work full time, 6-8 hour shifts 5-6 days a week. I am almost always done with work between 1 and 2 pm at the latest. I don't have consistent days off but can be flexible with availability. For pets who need extra care throughout the day (potty breaks every 4 hours, 3+ meals, etc.), I can typically work accommodations into my schedule for those in the 98664/98683/98684 area. I am well-versed in behavioral signs of animals and will make them feel safe and trusted while I am in their homes. My main goal is always to support your pets in whatever way they need.

“She was great with my dog . Will definitely use her again.”

About: I've always loved animals and knew I wanted to work with them in some capacity. Since I was a kid I've been pet sitting for neighbors, or friends/family and then I started walking dogs in college to make extra money. Now, I have 4 years expirence working with dogs and cats and the occasional ferret and sugar glider as a Veterinary Technician. Your fur baby(babies) will be in safe hands with me and I will love and care for them as my own. My availability is very open right now to walk, play with or stay with your pets, feel free to message me to set something up <3 I make sure everyone gets fed, has fresh clean water, I can medicate if needed, I love engaging in interactive play and taking doggos for walks! I have experience reading animal body language too so I know when to take it slower or let them come to me if they seem anxious.

About: I have taken care of elderly cats, sticking to a routine and administering saline treatment. I am energetic and fun for pets to be around. I'd love to take care of your pet while you're away and understand the importance of pictures and updates to know your best friend is safe and well cared for. I'm currently working full time as a sitter, dog walker and pet boarder. Focused on one pet boarding at a time. I only accept one pet/pet family at a time. I will take multiple pets but only from the same home. I have a fenced yard with space to run and play. I have one athletic and friendly dog, she is a 35 lb mixed breed who loves to chase balls, sticks and frisbees. She is friendly with other dogs, though cautious around large breeds, she warms up quickly. The backyard has easy access inside for all dogs, and water always available for pets.

About: I’ve taken care of cats and dogs since I was a teenager. I love animals so much, each is so unique! I have also done extensive dog training with my corgi for 3 years, she has anxiety and reactivity issues. So I’m well versed in those behaviors in animals! I am a pediatric nurse at Randalls in Portland. Rover is something I do on the side for fun because I enjoy it! I also just bought my first home so the extra income is very helpful. I am currently moving into my new home which is very spacious. I personally crate my dog at night, but let her roam inside during the day. I can follow whatever directions you need for your fur baby!

About: I have an 11 year old rescue beagle with special needs and a whole lot of stubborn. I have learned a lot from him, especially patience. I recently moved back to richmond and am only working part time. I have a very flexible schedule and can care for a pet at almost anytime. I cant have your pets in my home, but I am more than happy to care for your fur babies at yours. I understand just how important your dog is to you, and I would treat them just as I treat mine. With all the love and treats I can.

“Great, energetic young man who is just tremendous. Judson T has been walking our large Bernese Mtn dog for several weeks ( and into the next weeks.) as well as Doggy day care in our home. Can’t say enough about this lovely fellow. A privilege to meet his dogs Strider & Winnie May at our request Thanks Judson!”

“My dog instantly connected with Mari and gets so excited when she comes over for weekly walks. Mari is personable and communicates well. She always tracks and takes at least one photo while out and about. I would recommend her 100%.”

About: I've spent the last 13 years as the proud owner of a reactive dog, which means I truly understand the nuance, patience, and trust that goes into caring for dogs with big personalities. That experience has made me a more attentive, calm, and thoughtful caregiver for every dog I meet. Beyond my own pup, I've volunteered as a dog walker with the Humane Society, where I worked with dogs of all temperaments and backgrounds. I've also been a reliable go-to sitter and walker for family and neighbors for years. Whether your dog is shy, energetic, selective with strangers, or needs a little extra patience, I get it, and I've got you covered. Your pet will always feel safe, loved, and right at home with me. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily life! I work a flexible schedule, which means I'm available as needed: mornings, afternoons, or evenings. Whether you need a last-minute walk or a planned sitting arrangement, I can usually make it work. Your dog will never have to wait long for attention, a bathroom break, or some good playtime! Your dog's safety and comfort are my top priority. I have a securely fenced yard where dogs can run, sniff, and play freely. My own dog has been my companion for 13 years, so I'm well-versed in reading dog behavior and keeping things calm and safe. I'm experienced with reactive dogs and know how to create a low stress environment. I'll always keep you updated with messages and photos so you can relax knowing your pup is in good hands.

About: Hi! I’m Cristie, a lifelong dog lover who genuinely believes dogs make just about everything better. I’m taking some time away from the corporate world and thought, what better way to spend part of my day than getting outside and hanging out with sweet dogs? I’d love to help busy pet parents by giving their pups the exercise, attention, affection, and companionship they deserve. I’m dependable, responsible, active, and very attentive to each dog’s individual personality and needs. Whether your pup loves a brisk walk and lots of sniffing adventures or prefers a slower stroll with plenty of encouragement and belly rubs, I’m happy to meet them where they are. As a pet parent myself, I know how much trust it takes to put your dog in someone else’s care. I’ll treat your pup with the same patience, kindness, and attention I’d want for my own two, and I’m always happy to send photos and updates along the way. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your four-legged family member! I am available Monday through Friday from 7 am to 3 pm and would love to shower your dog(s) with affection and a great outdoor adventure walk! Having 2 dogs myself, safety and trust are incredibly important to me. I’ll always follow your instructions and your dog’s normal routine, including any preferences around walking, feeding, treats, medications, other dogs, or areas to avoid. When caring for a pet in your home, I’ll treat both your pet and your home with the same care and respect I would expect for my own. I’m attentive about securely closing doors and gates, keeping dogs safely leashed, and watching their behavior and surroundings while we’re out. Most importantly, I want you to feel completely comfortable knowing your pet is in caring, responsible hands. I’m also happy to send photos and updates so you know your pup is safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away.

I hope you take me into consideration, and I get a chance to spend time with your pet or pets! My schedule is very flexible as I work part time on other gig apps and resell!
