“Corinne is awesome! From the first meet and greet, she was eager to learn how to care for both of my labs, even down to how their harnesses fit. She was flexible with a schedule change at the last minute and provided excellent company for my dogs on a walk while I was out of town. Her knowledge, care and attention to detail is unmatched. I look forward to continue booking with Corinne!”

I’m not sure whether it was pilot error on my part when I put in what type of doggie is or not, but if it can be changed. It should be changed to an English cream, golden retriever”


“Would recommend Tiana for any dog/puppy services. We have a 9 week old pup and are not home most of the day. Tiana brings our pup out for walks as well as helps reinforce training commands and keeps him company at our home. We have had the greatest experience! Would recommend 100%!!”


About: I've had dogs of my own for my whole life so they have always been a big part of who I am. I currently have two dogs of my own, but have plenty of love left to share with your dogs. In addition to caring for my own dogs, I’ve spent two years and over 150 hours volunteering at a dog and cat rescue. I cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes and temperaments by walking, feeding, bathing, training, and administering medications. In addition to dogs, I’ve previously been a pet parent to horses, cats, and bunnies. I currently volunteer at an equine rescue. I used rover as a sitter very briefly in 2017 when I lived in Florida, so I have some old reviews from my previous time on Rover. I am re-establishing my profile and am excited to get to know some wonderful pups and pup parents in Portland. As a pet parent, I know how stressful it is to leave your treasured family member in someone else’s care. That’s why I make sure to text my Rover families plenty of pictures and updates. I want you to feel confident that your pet is safe and happy so you can enjoy your time away with less stress. I’m also happy to support any training goals you are currently working on. I work a full time job in healthcare quality assurance, but have flexible work hours and a hybrid schedule. I’ll be able to accommodate recurring weekly walks or drop-ins as well as one-time bookings. I’m excited to offer dog walking and drop-in visits. During walks I will ensure your dog remains leashed with the collar and leash set up of your choice. If you’re working on loose leash walking, I can support that training on my walks with your pups. I’ll ensure your pet has food, water, medication (as needed), and will let you know immediately if I see any health or safety concerns.

About: With years of hands-on experience, I offer dependable and compassionate care for a wide range of animals—including dogs of all ages (from playful puppies to wise seniors), cats, and even chickens! Whether it’s daily dog walks, attentive pet sitting, or special care for senior pets, I treat every animal like my own—with patience, love, and attention to their unique needs. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and truly passionate about animals, ensuring they feel safe, happy, and cared for in your absence. I work Independently from my computer and can take scheduled breaks willingly at my leisure! This is an amazing fit for me, and gives me the freedom to care for animals, which I love, and get some fresh air and exercise! With my background in Hospitality as well as caring for a wide variety of animal species I am well rounded and versed in not only caring for your animal and their specific needs, but your home as well while you're away! Keeping a safe environment for your animal is just as important as caring for your animal! Feel free to leave your Furbo camera on, or state specific and detailed instructions for your animals care! Your desires and your pets needs are my top priority! I understand trust is earned through honest and respectful action! I do everything in my power to make your pet feel comfortable and cared for as per all instructions left by you! If a sit feels too stressful or out of reach for my abilities I will be very transparent and honest about what I can take on! I would never jeopardize your animals safety and care.

About: Rescued two outside cats before and have formed bonds with usually shy dogs/cats. Don’t have much experience with training animals, but will make sure they have enough exercise when needed! Working very low part time as a cook, but love working with animals. This is a great way for me to build my experience in this area. Making sure the water is filled and they are fed on time. I try to take my roommates dog outside when I can, but hot weather doesn’t allow that too much right now

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for ten years , I’ve also know basic dog training for 2 years . I’m a dog lover , who only works 3 hours a day so the doggy will always have me around. I run regularly so high energy dogs are always welcome . I’m currently working part time so I’m always available weekends and weekdays. My job only requires three hours a day. Great environment for dogs with separation anxiety. At the moment I live in an apartment, but I like to spend my time outside in the park so they will be walked plenty and my partner is always home as well so plenty of play time

About: Hello! I have about 4 years of professional experience with both cats and dogs. I volunteered at a local animal shelter for about a year, and helped with dog and cat caretaking, cleaning, dog training, laundry, adoptions, etc. Shortly after, I worked at a dog and cat grooming salon for about 3 years. I learned proper dog handling and calming techniques, nail trimming, and other grooming needs for various breeds. I have experience with both cats and dogs from newborns to seniors. I am willing to help with special needs such as medications, trips to the vet, and visits to the dog parks. I have a reliable mode of transportation and am willing to meet any of your animal’s needs. I hope I am a good fit for your furry friends!

About: Hi! I’m Jordan. (often known by “Jo”) I am well versed in animal welfare. I have 6+ years working in professional dog care. I grew up in a house full of mastiffs. Then began my love of dogs, and ever since, I’ve cared for just about every breed imaginable. My care is special because I take special attention to details others might not notice or understand - my understanding of dog behavior and psychology are especially valuable in caring for the overall well-being of your pet. Some of my experience includes being a kennel technician, dog walker, overseeing doggy-daycare with a blend of many dogs large and small, administering medications, raising puppies, senior dog care, walking dogs with reactivity, accommodating disabled/special needs dogs, — & more. I live on a farm and look after pigs, goats, chickens, ducks and our two livestock guardian dogs. I like to stay busy and I don’t mind getting dirty. I also clean up! :) Overall, the most important thing to me is that the quality of the care I provide equals a positive and uniquely curated experience for each animal I work with. As I no longer have a dog of my own, I extend my ultimate love and service to every animal I care for. I am fully committed to this career and eager to continue building clientele that aligns with what my current skillset offers. Ask me about my availability! Depending on your pet’s specific needs, I’ll adjust my routine accordingly. For example, if your dog is a working breed who might need lots of stimulation, I’d take it outdoors for trail runs and put together scent puzzles to keep them engaged. If your dog is reactive, we’d avoid triggers and keep potential triggers at a safe distance. I’ll adhere to your normal routine as much as I can so that your pets feel as comfortable as possible. It’s important to give dogs outside enrichment, and I love staying active. Also, although I am not a trainer, I have ample experience in working with dogs to help modify and correct unfavorable behavior.

I have two spoiled dogs who can sometimes be a handful, but Ally is incredibly sweet, gentle, and patient with them.
