Dog Walking In Kerns

About: I’ve had dogs and cats since I was little. I’ve had experience doing jobs dog sitting, dog walking, dog boarding, cat sitting, and cat boarding since I was 12. I love animals and animals tend to love me too! I am currently stay-at-home, looking for a remote job so I can continue looking after my pets and hopefully yours. I am flexible and available on weekends. I have occasional trips home to see my family, but other than that I don’t travel that much. Every pet has its own personality and my care tends to match that, as well as the pets needs. One of the dogs I used to walk loved having a chance to sprint in circles over and over. I tailored her walks to go to a nearby, dog-friendly, fenced in park so she could get out all her wiggles before we walked back home.

About: Growing up I always had animals, especially dogs and cats! I absolutely adored each and every one. I love animals of all sizes, and treat mine like my children. I will give your baby all the attention, snuggles, and love they want. I have many years of experience in caring for dogs and cats, and would love to spoil and care for yours just as I do mine! :) I work through out the week so during that time I have limited availability but I am flexible for drop-in’s most evenings and early mornings. I am completely available Friday through Sunday. I will keep a close eye on your baby and make sure to the best of my ability they’re safe at all times! If you have a certain schedule or routine for your babe I am happy to keep them on that as well. For boarding, I don’t have a yard at my apartment but have easy access to trails/parks for walks and frequent potty breaks!

“Allyson was on time and easy to schedule and work with. She handled our large hard to walk dog like an absolute pro. She came home tired and happy.”

“Kayla has been great with my pups, they seem to really enjoy their walks with her. She is responsive, timely, and follows instructions wonderfully. I look forward to booking with her for regular walks during my work week!”

About: Owner of English Lab for 5.5 years and she is my World. Got her at 3 months. Life Changer. She makes everyone around her (me included) feel like the most important person in the World. I also grew up with an American Lab which I cared and loved for, for 13yrs. My family got her when she was just a puppy at a year old (I was 13) and she lived to be 13yrs when she passed (I was 26). She is the reason I started to really love dogs. I’ve also volunteered at the Oregon Humane Society quite a bit over the past 5yrs That has been a very rewarding experience. I currently work Fridays-Mondays in the medical field and have a lot of free time on my days off. I usually take Millie, my Lab, for a 2hr walk in the surrounding neighborhoods and try to get her down to the river once a week to swim. It’s by far her favorite activity and she’s a master swimmer. I live in an apartment with my dog and care for her like a child. Because let’s be honest. She is a child. She gets whatever she needs and so will every dog I care for on a daily basis.

“Christopher is a great dog walker. He is very considerate and always gives us a heads up before coming in the house to get our dog (in case we’re there). He took our dog Aggie on really nice long walks.”

“Ivory goes above and beyond to give our pups a great walk and attention while we are at work. Both dogs happy and tired in the evening. Ivory is quick to communicate with us and takes great pictures of dogs each walk. We highly recommend Ivory!”

“Kai took great care of my 2 dogs! Took them on a nice long walk, and made sure they had everything they needed. Also, he was able to book on very short notice! Would definitely book another walk with Kai for next time.”

“Brenna is very attentive, responsive, and trustworthy. She does a great job caring for my angel boy and my mind is at ease knowing that she’s taking care of him on the days I have to go into the office. Thanks Brenna!”

About: I have experience with cats and dogs of all ages, shapes, sizes, and personality. I have trained puppies before (and even my cat can do tricks) as well have helped care for elderly pets who need extra attention. I am very skilled at reading animal body language and finding the right way to connect with each unique furry friend. My schedule is very open! I currently see clients on Tuesday afternoons/evenings for an internship, but otherwise my schedule is open and flexible. There are occasional dates where I have other obligations, but I generally am able to work with most schedules. NOTE: Not looking to house sit for longer than 3 days at a time. I am very respectful of the spaces of others, and aim to leave no trace other than my care for your pets. I am training to be a therapist/counselor, so I very much understand how fundamental mutual trust, boundaries, and communication are in a healthy working relationship and take that extremely seriously regardless of what service I am providing.

“Christopher did a great job I would hire him again and again. I can tell when my dog has done a brisk walk or has had a stroll. Each time Christopher walked my dog she was tuckered out in the evening. He went above and beyond. Christopher had great communication and came on time.”

Kathryn G.

“Jess has been a fantastic and trustworthy dog walker for us for over two years. Rain or shine, she is reliable and a great friend to our dog, who can be triggered to other dogs while out on walks. I feel very comfortable with our dog in her care. I wouldn't use any other dog walker at this point!”

About: I've loved animals ever since I was a small kid. I grew up raising 3 rats, 3 cats, and a Great Pyrenees. I have experience walking neighborhood dogs, as well as taking care of hamsters and cats while their owners were on vacation. I currently have no pets due to my building's rules, so I'd take any excuse to help take care of a fluffy creature. Currently working a reduced amount with most of it being from home, so I have a lot of availability to care for your pets. Free/flexible most hours, besides evening on the weekends(and even then, I could potentially work something out with enough time). I enjoy long walks and exercise, and love playing with animals, so I'm your guy if your dog needs a long walk or an hour of nothing but fetch. I grew up walking a stubborn 100+ lb. dog, so I know how to control them if they get a little too excited sometimes.

“Jess is incredible with my dog, highly recommend!”

About: Hi there! I am an Early Childhood Special Educator in Portland looking for some part time work that involves caring for animals, another passion of mine! I have experience with cats and dogs of many temperaments and am familiar with their social, physical, and play needs. As a cat foster parent over the years I have cared for kittens, teenage cats, adults, and seniors. I have also cared for numerous dogs with a variety of needs and I am passionate about the physical and mental wellness of the cats and dogs that I work with. I would love to have the opportunity to meet more feline and canine friends and to be a helper in providing the best care for your pet. Hope to hear from you soon! I work a full-time job and am able to care for animals before work and after on weekdays and full time on weekends. Pets would be alone approximately 8 hours during my work day. I ensure that I get all the information I can from pet owners about their pet’s needs and potential concerns. I follow their recommendations and am respectful of their wishes.

About: Hi! My name is Sessy! I’m currently an MSW graduate student at Portland State who wants to care for your furry friend(s)! I’ve had many dogs and cats my entire life and have been very involved in raising them. Additionally, I used to walk dogs, catsit, and housesit for my neighbors for years! Some things you can expect when you book me are a lot of patience and love for your fuzzy buddies, photo and text updates, and lots of extra attention and playtime! At the moment, I'm free for the summer and available to give all my time to your fuzzy buddies! I start school on September 26th, and my schedule availability will change. However, until then I'm here at your beck and call for whatever your pet care needs may be! Unfortunately, as I have a small apartment with a partner and 2 cats already, I am unable to host any pets at this time, sorry!
