Dog Walkers in Garibaldi, OR

About: I've owned cats and dogs throughout my life and love both! Animals are the best, and I have many years of experience with house/pet sitting as well, everywhere from cats and dogs to horses and other animals. I love playing with pets and hanging out with them, or just giving them some love and cuddles. I work from home the vast majority of the time so am able to be present for boarding and daycare! I have two dogs (Junie and Wilbur the doodles) and a cat (Tabby the tabby) of my own currently. Depending on my work schedule, I'm often available throughout the day to come check on your fur-babies as often as is needed. I'm happy to provide whatever level of service you're looking for, and look forward to discussing the details with you! I generally work a standard 9-5, but my work is remote most of the time so I have a semi-flexible schedule. Just let me know what you need and we will make it work! As someone with a special needs dog, we keep any dangerous objects out of reach. I’m familiar with general foods and things that are a risk to pets. I also have cameras in my home and am comfortable with cameras if you have any.

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was 10 years old. My dogs are truly my best friends, and my most favorite things to do are play with them, walk them, and take them down to the beach. I get so much joy from being with dogs, and would love to be available to help people with their doggies whenever needed! I’m currently home for the summer, between school years as an English teacher in Madrid, Spain. Right now, I’m enjoying time on the Oregon coast and working on my Spanish, so I have plenty of availability, and lots of motivation, for pet care! My approach to caring for pets in my home and my client’s home is one of attention to individual needs. I know that every pet is different, and every pet has different needs. I would want to know from my clients how best to make their pet comfortable and cared for. Whether the dog likes to play lots, walk, run, or just hangout, I want to make sure that time away from their family can still feel like home.

“Rocky loves Erica. She's consistent and does really well with bigger dogs. Rocky loves the sunshine and she gives him time in the sunshine on Sunny days. People in my neighborhood have approached me that I've never met saying, "Hey, Rocky." Erica has given Rocky attention and helped introduce him to his neighbors! She's great, I and highly recommend her. ”

About: I have extensive experience taking care of cats, dogs, and chickens, but am open and excited to take care of all pets. I am new to Rover, but have completed over 40 sits through TrustedHousesitters watching many dogs, cats, and kittens, ranging from weekend sits to entire months and have been pet sitting full time for 1 and a half years. I have watched dogs and cats of all ages and have experience administering medication (including insulin, pills, liquid). I also have experience with a variety of farm animals as I watched an entire farm by myself including goats, sheep, turkeys, rabbits, cats and dogs. In addition to my recent experience through TrustedHousesitters, I have had many house/pet sitting gigs throughout the years. I periodically watched my housemates cat in college. I grew up dog sitting my family friend's dog and cat sitting for a couple of different families. I also nannied for 4 years, and have experience looking after houses, cleaning, and keeping my clients homes in great condition. I am originally from California, but my home base is Portland, OR. My favorite activities include running, hiking, and anything outdoorsy. I am a marathon runner and I have completed 6 marathons so far and have run numerous half marathons. I also really like exploring, traveling and trying new food and coffee places. I love to house/pet sit because it gives me the opportunity to be around cute pets and make some extra income as I recently moved back to Portland after taking a gap year. I have 3.5 years of experience working remotely in the medical communications field and I am a UC Davis alumni. While caring for your pet and home, I will be available on my cell and will text picture updates, so you can feel at ease while you are away and will be sure to give your pet plenty of cuddles and love.

About: I have real experience caring for special needs dogs including my blind, diabetic pup who needed daily insulin shots and lots of love. I’m calm, patient, and passionate about making pets feel safe and cared for while their people are away. Whether your fur baby needs meds, cuddles, or just a buddy to hang with, I’ll treat them like family. You can count on me to give them the same love I gave my own. Pet care fits perfectly into my routine! I’m available Monday through Thursday and sometimes on weekends too. I have plenty of time and energy to give your pet the love and attention they need. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or just keeping them company, I truly enjoy being there for animals. I care for pets in their own home where they feel most comfortable and secure. I follow their routines closely, whether that’s feeding schedules, walks, playtime, or giving medication. I make sure they feel safe, loved, and relaxed while their family is away. I’m calm, reliable, and treat every pet like they’re my own. Even if they need special care, I’ve got the patience and experience to give them the attention they deserve.

About: I have been the go-to source for pet care for family and friends, as long as I can remember! I understand how hard it is to be separated from our pets and do my best to give them as much love as you do! My son also enjoys helping out, but wants it to be known, he is more of a cat person. 😁 I am currently available seven days a week for all your pet care needs! I am active and enjoy getting outside to hike and enjoy the beautiful Oregon Coast! I have a fenced in yard, live within a few blocks of Open Space trails,and the beach! I have a utility wagon and pet stroller for elderly or rehabilitating pets that need to get outside! All breeds welcome, but well-behaved pets are the best!

About: I may be young, but I've had multiple animals in my life already: 3 cats, a handful of dogs, some fish, and even a horse. I also did rescue for 5 years, being a foster family for numerous cats working with my local animal shelter. I also dog-sit for family and friends. I am free any day throughout the week as long as I get notice at least a day ahead. I am an older sister to lots of kids, so scheduling is very important to me. I would treat your animal just like my own: walks, playtime, relaxation, and feeding. I can also bathe and brush as well. If you can give me a list of what your pets need, I'll make it a priority.

“Amy was great! Booked last minute and she was able to take care of my dog Tennessee for me!”

About: Well I’ve had cats all my life but I do love dogs! I have done over night(s)! I love taking dogs for walks & to parks to run around and possibly play with other dogs I’ve helped with a friend of mine dogs while his other family members were off on a camping trip so I took them out for potty a few times a day, feed them, & played with them. I’m definitely an animal lover who loves being outdoors and helping out if and when needed I’ve been told multiple times that I’m a cat/dog whisperer if you know what I mean by that. If there is anything in particular you wanna know feel free to ask. I currently am a homemaker and do have my own vehicle. I currently have a very open schedule but I do not drive. My partner drives me (or animals!) wherever I need to go. First things first I like to have a conversation with the clients about their pet specific needs and schedules. If a, “In-home” pet sitting is needed, I also like to go over any house or home rules. This can vary depending on the animal.

“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: Hi there, We’re Leigh & Luke — experienced, reliable, and animal-loving sitters. With 15+ years of combined experience in private homes as a nanny, household manager, newborn care specialist, and owner of a domestic staffing agency, I (Leigh) have had the joy of caring for more than just children—pets and entire households have always been a big part of my work. My partner Luke and I are calm, patient, and easygoing — animals naturally seem drawn to us (neighborhood cats often join us on our evening walks!). We deeply understand the importance of maintaining your pet’s routine and ensuring they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. Luke has a true green thumb—at one point, he cared for his own 28 thriving houseplants—and he’s tended to some truly beautiful gardens. Together, we take great pride in being respectful, responsible, and thoughtful guests in every home we enter. In addition to his love of nature, Luke is a creative professional who owns a production company and works as a documentary filmmaker. We work remotely and have flexible schedules, allowing us to commit to sits across the U.S. but preferably in the PNW and California. Since we travel without children or pets, we can easily adapt to new environments and give your pets our full attention.

We genuinely love connecting with new people and their animals, and we’re fully vetted and background checked through TrustedHousesitters. It would be an honor to care for your home and your beloved pets with the same attention and affection we’d give our own.

About: Growing up on a farm, I had the opportunity to care for a wide variety of animals, from livestock to household pets. This hands-on experience, combined with my background in fisheries and wildlife biology, has given me a deep understanding of animal care. Over the years, friends and family have trusted me to look after their pets, knowing I treat every animal with the same love and attention I give my own. As a devoted dog owner, I know how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your pets, and I’d be delighted to provide that same level of care for yours. I currently work Monday–Friday from 7:00 AM to 3:30 PM, with the flexibility of working from home about 75% of the time. This gives me decent availability depending on my schedule. I’m fully available Friday through Sunday to care for any furry friends in need. During the week, I can accommodate early morning drop-ins before 7:00 AM and late drop-ins after 3:30 PM, depending on my availability. I own a home in a safe, pet-friendly neighborhood with easy access to multiple hiking trails and beaches, perfect for outdoor adventures. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and am comfortable handling walks of any length or activity level. Most importantly, I care deeply about your pet’s safety, whether I’m caring for them in your home or taking them out for a walk.

About: I currently have two dogs and experience with all types and breeds. I work from home and take the dogs for walks/runs on Gearhart beach. I am a very attentive dog mom. I have experience with dog medications, wound car, injections, tick removal. I work from home and am very attentive to dogs and ensuring they are well cared for. I regularly take dogs to the beach which is 1/2 a mile away and they run and play. I have two friendly dogs and a large, but unfenced, yard. Dogs have free reign in the house and can use the furniture and beds.

About: I have excellent references with over 18 years of experience walking, feeding, bathing, and grooming animals. I have worked with animals as young as 4 months old to as old as 18 years old and had to administer medication. I’ve worked with dogs, cats, horses, goats, fish, birds, and cows. I am a teacher so I am available any time during the week to stay over and with breaks I can go and let them out for play and potty time. I’m off work after 3:45 so your pet babies will have lots of attention! I also have summers off (June-August) and can be home with your pets all day! I live in an apartment at this time so I will not be able to keep your animals here, but I am able to come to your home and be there as much or as little as you need me to be! I want what is best for your pet since I know they are part of your family. When you put your trust in me, I take that very seriously and anything you need directions wise will be followed since you know your pet best!
