Dog Walking Grants Pass

About: I may be new to the Rover community, but I am not new to pet carr! I have my own baby who I care for, along with experience caring for family and friends dogs, elderly and puppies alike! When my family takes on the task of caring for others pets, I am the one entrusted to handle those responsibilities. I love pets of all kinds and even have experience changing pet diapers! I believe that every pet has their own personality and therefore their own special care needs, and I intend to provide that care specifically for each animal I am entrusted with. I am a college student looking for a side hustle or even part time job out of this! Im hoping to use whatever money I make to pay for either travel during breaks or my college itself. I love animals and spending time with them so this job is honestly a dream for me. I would prefer this to be my only job so that I am able to put my full heart into it! If this is my only responsibility then it will truly be my only focus, allowing me to be open for anything! I intend to follow exactly the instructions I am given for each and every animal, because I understand that all animals are different. I understand if you have a certain ritual before dinner time or if your baby's bed needs to be prepped a certain way for them to sleep good. Your pet deserves to have the same routine no matter who they are in the hands of.

About: I have been pet sitting since I was 13. Whether it was my own while my parents were gone or friends and neighbors as I got older. I have cared for both really active dogs that need to run all the time and older slower pets that need a lot of attention to details. I am currently a student at Western Oregon University enjoying my summer break back home. So I am available any time as I can create my own schedule. I can’t keep pets here but I am willing and able to do anything needed whether it is crating or making sure they are properly leashed if need be. I can also just watch as they run around!

“Jessica was great! My dogs loved her and going on a walk with her. Her communication is great! Would definitely recommend and have her walk my dogs again!”

About: I’ve been dogsitting for at least 3 years now. I’ve specifically been pet sitting for the same few family’s over the span of several years. Since I have no other commitments, I am able to spend as much time as needed with the dogs and treat every dog like it’s my own. I don’t mind having to make special meals for dogs, going on walks, or staying full time at your house! I have experience with dogs with anxiety under circumstances such as storms and fireworks and I am also good with high energy dogs. I enjoy meeting with the dogs before booking so reach out! I do not have any other jobs currently so I am able to give my full attention to your pets! I already take walks on my own so having a dog join me would be beneficial as well. I do not have pets of my own so it’s easy for me to give full love and attention to other peoples pets like the pet I never had.

“Charlotte did a great job. Arrived on time and managed to calm down my over rambunctious dogs. Scarlett came back a very happy and tired dog. Thank you so much. I do not need any more walks at the moment but will be happy to get her again next time my daughter leaves them with me.”

About: I've had pets my entire life, from dogs and cats to small mammals, reptiles, and birds. Growing up in a miniature menagerie taught me responsibility and how to properly care for animals and adapt to each pet's unique needs. Reading animal behavior and connecting with each pet's personality is second nature to me. Whether it's maintaining your pet's familiar routine, providing engaging playtime, or offering companionship, I prioritize making your pets feel secure and loved in your absence. I structure my daily and weekly routine around pet care, ensuring they are fed, exercised, and given attention. Each day, I set aside time for feeding, cleaning up after them, and making sure they have companionship. Weekly, I restock supplies and adjust my schedule as needed to meet their needs. I prioritize each pet’s comfort and personality, letting them set the pace for interactions. When entering a space, I allow the pet to approach me first and get down to their eye level to establish trust. I respect a cat’s independence and let them engage on their terms. When walking dogs, I exercise patience, allowing them to sniff and explore at their own pace, as I’ve learned this helps build trust and confidence. My approach ensures that every pet feels safe, respected, and cared for.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life. I understand the anxiety that can accompany leaving your pet behind as I have a 12 year old dog of my own. That’s why it’s my mission to provide a high standard of care to put your mind at ease. I am a stay at-home mom so I have flexibility in my schedule, with open availability on the weekends. I’m available to discuss your pets needs. I want your pet to feel comfortable while I’m entrusted with them so I understand the need to follow their schedule including walks, feeding, playtime.

About: I was born into a house with 9 dogs. My mother has devoted her life to animal rescue and I have been helping and volunteering since I was 6. I absolutely adore animals and would love to look after yours! I’ve volunteered at numerous animal shelters at different places I’ve lived in the past and I have helped many different personalities of dogs and cats. I currently am working part-time, so I have a lot of time to spend with the babies! My schedule is flexible, so I should be able to accommodate any times or days you would need! I have been around animals my whole life and am good at being intuitive with their needs. If they are snuggle bugs, I’ll snuggle up with them! If they need play or to be left alone, I’ll act accordingly.

About: I have a lot of love for animals. I am interested in dog walking or taking care of dogs/cats when you just need a little vacation to yourself or a busy day ahead! I have two years of experience with dog sitting. I have taken dogs on walks, stayed over night at the owner's home, fed them, play with them, and clean up after them when they have accidents. I have also taken dogs to vet appointments. I am not afraid of any type of dogs. They have this effect on me that makes me fall in love with them or feel better when I'm feeling down. I’m currently off of my main job as a special needs aide at a middle school as it is summer time! I have a lot of free time right now. I always want pets to feel safe and secure when they’re with me. I like using a soft voice with dogs, unless told to be more stern by the owners. I have experience with dogs that have been abused and are more timid, I usually sit on the floor with them until they trust me enough to come up to me.

About: Hello! I have taken care of dogs, cats, and various other animals for over 20 years. I have worked with many dogs with teaching basic manners and cues. I love all animals and am happy to help in any way that I can. :) I work full time Mon-Fri 8:30am-5:00pm. My office is less than 1 mile from work so I easily come home for my lunch break to tend to the animals. Outside of work, I am mostly home and prefer to spend time with the animals. I am happy to handwalk dogs, play fetch, and work on training skills if requested. I am flexible with requests :) I work full time Mon-Fri 8:30am-5:00pm and work less than 1 mile from home so easily come home on my lunch break to tend to animals. I also have weekends off so your pup won’t be home alone often. 😊 I have both a smaller and larger fenced area for the dogs to play. I like to take the pups on walks via leash if the owner is comfortable, and turn them out in the yards to run while being supervised. I have a 75lb 3 ur old pup that gets along very well with all other dogs!

About: I have been around dogs since I was a baby. I trained my sister's dog when I was 12 and took care of her for three months while she was gone. Shortly after she moved out I got my own dog who inspired me to get into dog training. I have house sat since I was 16 and have helped around 7 local families with their dogs and cats. I was a kennel tech for a year and gained knowledge and experience from that as well. I am currently a full-time student, and aspiring dog trainer, so I have time and availability throughout the day to take care of animals. And the care of animals fits with my long term goal so I can make it a priority. My dog has a quarter acer back yard and gets taken on walks daily, and I fit training in where I can. He gets a chew toy and a sniff mat for enrichment most days on top of eating from a slow feeder for meals.
