Dog Walkers in Hood River, OR

“Great communicator and Reggie loved his time with her ❤️”

“I trust Marissa wholeheartedly with my pets. I have a very shy, slow to warm up one and rambunctious, gigantic young dog, she’s fantastic with both. She has watched my dogs many times over, including quick weekends and longer trips when I’ve been out of the country. I never have to worry or wonder how things are going when she has “the kids”. The dogs get exercised, loved, and cared for just as they would at home. The peace of mind I feel when Marissa watches my dogs while I’m away is as relaxing as the vacation itself :)”

“Aaron gave our Cali a good run on a cold and rainy day. Just what she needed.”

“Really pleased with Rosie’s good communication. She took great care of Homer and I look forward to booking with her again!”

About: Hi my name is Aya I live in downtown Hood River in my own home with a fenced back yard. My boyfriend of 3 years and friend for over a decade lives with me but is often gone for work. Looking to help others while enjoying having a furry friend to keep me company. My little old man dog Vader passed away few years ago, he was almost 15. Had him since he was a pup and fostered many dogs at the local dog shelter in the past. My boyfriend and I are both helicopter pilots, fire fight in the summers and have most of the winters off. Majority of my time is spent at home, out in the garden or walking around the neighborhood. Come spring work starts to get busy. Rest assure if I’m watching your furry family member I will be home majority of every day working on the house being craft or out in the garden. Dog walks in my neighborhood are very safe and there’s a trail close to my house we can walk to. I am “on call” for 2 weeks every two weeks until fire season starts AND I will have annual training at some point in Feb. which is why I only have openings for one week or so at a time. I have a fenced yard with a dog door that can be closed if I leave but I usually keep it closed when I watch new dogs and definitely ones that can jump fences. My neighboorhood is very safe and I have security cameras around the perimeter and well as an alarm system.

“Victoria is a wonderful young lady (and she has a cute little Daschund, too). She did 2 visits/walks with our pups and is a very pleasant person.”

“Jourdon took great care of my pupp Dakota today, walking and feeding her. It was super easy to schedule and I got adorable pics and updates along the way. Will definitely book again!”

“Your dogs are in good hands with Carly! Carly is an active, vibrant person with a genuine love of dogs. She has cared for our two active dogs, chickens, and household/property multiple times. Our dogs have a very specific routine including twice daily medications, walks, and meals. Carly handled it with thoughtful ease. I would absolutely recommend Carly.”

“Megan was incredibly helpful in getting my dog on board and riding in my cargo bike. Now I can look forward to great summer rides with my best friend! Megan is great with dogs and bikes, so lucky I found her!”

About: I've had and lived with many dogs and volunteered with rabbits as well. I currently am a volunteer at the Aquarium of the Pacific and love animals of all kinds. I have a flexible scheduled where I work from home and can be available any day including over night pet / house sitting when needed. I live in a three bedroom condo with my husband. Our dog passed away over a year ago and we've missed the company of a pet but our hearts are not yet healed. We hope caring for your pet might help heal our hearts to love another pet again.

“Beth is a kind person, reliable and energetic. She did a nice job of walking our dog last week and was great to work with!”

About: I have lived with dogs and cats my whole life. I now have a dog and cat of my own which are living with me. I am working full time so can tend to your pets usually after 4 PM but sometimes earlier. I will usually not be available for weekends. I take my dog for long walks down the trail every day and make sure he gets plenty of play time while at home. I always have water available and live in a low trafficked wildlife area.

“Samantha has watched my dog on numerous occasions and has always been very good on sending photos and updates as needed. Her dog is super friendly and gets along with my dog amazingly, they are very good at tiring each-other out. We will definitely be using Samantha’s services in the future. Thank you!!”

“I can’t say enough about how well Campbell treats our dogs. When she shows up, our dog literally chooses her over me! She’s prompt, caring, and all around awesome… my dog tells me so :)”

“Trisha was so sweet! My dog instantly loved her and took right to her. She was always very timely and willing to help in any way. I had her come every three days before I left for work. Tank, my dog, would be waiting for her by the door every time. He loves going for walks and play time with her. Trisha is very trustworthy; I have her come by a lot when I get stuck at work and need to have my dog let out! Definitely a great pick! High recommend!”

“Talia takes great care of her two Labrador dogs, Bo and Aero. They are a big part of her life and her and her family take them pretty much wherever they go. Talia is great with other dogs as well, including my own Labrador.”

“I would highly recommend Rebecca J as a pet sitter. She is mature and responsible. She has loveingly owned and cared for all kinds of pets from dogs and cats to snakes, turtles, repitles and hamsters. She has worked in a vet clinic, has volunteered at shelters and is smart and has great decision making skills.”

“Maggie is a sweet, compassionate soul who will take care of your fur babies as if they were her own. She is responsible and reliable. If you're looking for someone to provide dedicated care, belly rubs, And plenty of walks for your little one, Maggie is it. She'll provide comfort while your pets are separated from you so you can truly relax and enjoy your time out of town!”

About: I am a retired teacher who loves dogs! Your dog will become part of our family during their stay with access to a fenced yard, a neighborhood park, plenty of walks and lots of snuggles. We have a backyard deck and front porches perfect for lounging and watching the world go by. I would be happy to help take care of any dog that gets along well with other dogs. I have experience with many dog personalities and temperaments from volunteering at Austin Pets Alive and Hood River Adopt-A-Dog. My availability is flexible and I am typically home the majority of the day. I will send frequent pictures and updates while you are away. We are able to watch 2 dogs from the same family, but we do tend to only have pets from one family at a time. We will send a link for a brief survey when we receive your boarding request in order to help us get to know your pup better. We take walks in wooded areas, so we ask that visiting dogs be on a flea/tick preventative. Also, we ask that visiting pups be comfortable negotiating laminate stairs since we live in a 3 story house. Thanks! We are retired and so are available to care for your pup. We will take your dog for a daily walk at one of the many outdoor natural spaces that the area has to offer. We have a fenced back yard which is accessed from the 2nd floor. If your dog prefers to cuddle in a crate, we have a crate.

“Taylor absolutely adores meeting new pets and their humans, especially dogs and cats! She loves giving pets, belly rubs, playtime, going for walks, or just chilling and enjoying cuddles. She is a lover of nature, super energetic, and enjoys big and small adventures. She is patient, loving, and kind, and her joy is contagious. She has taken care of our three cats, one of which has special dietary needs and another who has needed medication. I never worry about their care and safety as I know we can always count on her. She has a respect for and genuine love for all animals and those in her care are well taken care of, safe, loved, and treated as her own!”
