6. Salam A.
“Salam has been an absolute lifesaver for me and my dog. As someone with a demanding schedule, I need someone I can trust completely to care for my dog when I’m not around. She is professional, dependable, and goes above and beyond to make sure my dog is happy, exercised, and cared for. It’s a relief to know my dog is in such good hands. I can’t recommend her highly enough to fellow busy professionals who want top-notch care for their pets.”

12. Kylie O.
About: I’ve had 2 dogs throughout my life and have always loved spending time with them. I have personal experience caring for dogs as I have helped to take care of my dogs growing up. I unfortunately do not have a dog anymore, so being able to spend time with dogs any chance I get brings me a lot of joy. I am reliable as friends and family trust me to primarily babysit their kids along with their pets. I am Junior nursing student at the University of Portland. I am off on Thursdays. My class schedule is different everyday so just let me know what works with you and we can figure something out! I am very respectful of peoples personal space and will be cautious when working with your dogs. I understand that your pets are family and would never let anything happen to them. Your dog will receive care with much love.

She has found lots of ways to get my energetic, 62 pound dog enough exercise to tire him out. She has also been able to help us out at the last minute. Geronimo loves her, which is the strongest recommendation she can get!”
