Dog Walkers in Lafayette, OR

“My husband and I met Alisha in October for a meet and greet with Milo, our mixed yellow lab and golden retriever. The meeting was for an upcoming trip during the Christmas holidays. We instantly liked her, she was on time when she came, she was professional, she bonded right away with Milo. Soon after I booked a three day walk in November just to reconnect again with her. It was for a 30 minute walk and again she was on time and I love the fact that I get a text and a pic of the walk. Tomorrow will be the start of a 13 day house sitting and we feel confident about the whole thing knowing that Milo will not be neglected. We’re glad we came across her at Rover. I highly recommend her.”

About: Hi, I’m Naomi! I’ve spent my whole life around animals and have nearly two years of professional experience working with dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and needs. I’m especially comfortable with rescue dogs, shy or high-energy pups, special needs pets, and administering medications. I always make it a priority to provide safe, patient, and loving care so your pets feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for. Whether your pet loves relaxing, playing, or getting outside for an adventure, I’d love to give them the attention and care they deserve while they’re with me! I worked at Reynolds Doggy Daycare Resort in McMinnville, Oregon as a kennel technician. In this role, I cared for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments throughout the day, often supervising groups of up to 20 dogs at a time. My responsibilities included ensuring proper hydration, enrichment, and cleanliness. I was trained in dog behavior and handling, which prepared me to confidently and safely manage a wide range of situations. When walking dogs, I always use secure harnesses and leashes, and I carry water to keep them hydrated. I carefully assess each dog’s temperament to ensure they are compatible with walking companions, minimizing stress and preventing conflicts. I maintain constant attention to their surroundings to ensure safety from traffic, hazards, or unpredictable situations. Beyond dogs, I also enjoy spending time caring for our Russian tortoise, which reflects my experience and passion for a variety of animals.

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was a kid. Much more familiar with big working dogs with high drive like huskies, German shepherds, and cattle dogs. But I love taking care of them all! The current fluff ball in my house (housemates pup) is my first time regularly looking after a smaller dog but she’s kinda a big dog in a little body as she loves getting out for walks and trail runs just as my as my shepherd did. I’m currently only employed part time and work from home. So flexible hours and looking for extra reasons to get out of the house and active this summer. Unfortunately my home does not have a fenced in yard but there are walking trails nearby and a fenced in dog park close by. My pup is friendly with other dogs. I’m available to take care of your furball in your home if that is better for you.

About: I’m Christina — a lifelong animal lover based in beautiful McMinnville wine country! Find me on insta @ GomezGetaway Myhome is full of love, fun, structure, and lots of tail wags thanks to our own pups, Mazie & Louie! I know leaving your dog with someone else can feel stressful, so my goal is simple: I want your pup to feel safe, loved, comfortable, and part of the family while you’re away. Whether your dog loves playtime, couch cuddles, sunbathing, or just a calm environment to relax in, I work hard to make their stay feel like a little getaway of their own. I provide personalized attention, frequent updates/photos, and a warm home environment with lots of supervision and care. I currently keep my bookings intentionally small so each dog gets plenty of attention and a low-stress experience. This also allows me to learn your dog’s routines, personality, and needs so they feel right at home. What you can expect: 🐾 Frequent photo updates 🐾 Safe, loving home environment 🐾 Flexible communication 🐾 Personalized care & attention 🐾 A fun but calm atmosphere Bonus: your pup may even go home with a cute photo, treat, or little surprise from their stay 😊 I’d love to meet you and your furry family member! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I genuinely enjoy it—it’s something I prioritize, not squeeze in. I build my schedule around the pets I’m caring for to make sure they get consistent attention, walks, and companionship throughout the day. Whether it’s morning check-ins, midday activity, or evening wind-down time, I make sure each dog’s needs and routine are followed closely so they feel comfortable and cared for. I work full time at home! My job is flexible and allows for play time, potty breaks and lunch time walks! I have a large fenced backyard where your pup is free to play, explore and potty! I have two additional fur babies who will keep your pup company! Your pup will likely spend most of the day with me inside, in my office. I give my pups space to roam the house if they want, but they generally sleep on the couch behind me. I am also able to crate your pup if that's what they're used to or comfortable with. I am flexible to your needs!

“Izabella took excellent care of our dog and provided great updates!”

About: I have had dogs since I was extremely little! Taking care of them has always been something I loved to do, through that love that grew I found a job at a dog daycare and worked there for a while until I moved and I absolutely loved it. It gave me a lot of hands on experience with hundreds of different dogs, big and small, easy and hard. No dog is too challenging with the right kind of love and attention! I currently work full time during the week so I would be available for weekends after 10 and before 4! I have a lot going on during the weekdays so weekend work best for me! Making sure I always have a tight grip on the leash and also making sure the dog is comfortable with me are two really big things when walking dogs, and what’s most important to me. Along with that they are having fun!!

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life — with over 10 years of personal ownership and experience in dog sitting, walking, and training. I’ve worked with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments — from laid-back seniors to high-energy puppies. I’m especially experienced with young or active dogs and love providing high-energy play, consistent routines, and plenty of cuddles. I’ve also trained dogs in basic obedience, hunting, and even service dog skills, so I’m comfortable reinforcing training while you’re away. I offer walking, feeding, crate training, medication administration, and overnight care — and I always tailor my approach to your dog’s unique needs and personality. Whether your pup needs a calm, consistent presence or someone to match their zoomies, I’ve got you covered! I’m currently on summer break! I’m available weekly for dog sitting (overnights or daytime care), dog walking, drop-ins, and more. House Sitting: Please keep in mind that I do not provide constant care at my listed rates. If you need constant care, please reach out to me about my rates. I have my own dog to care for, as well as walks and drop-ins for other clients throughout the day. I always make sure pets are not left alone longer than the agreed upon timeframe. But if you need constant care, I will make sure to block off the dates you need for your pet(s) only! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat the space and routine with the same respect I’d want for my own. I follow all instructions carefully—whether that’s feeding schedules, walking routines, crate time, or medication needs—so your pet stays comfortable and consistent in their environment. I’m also happy to continue any training or reinforcement you’ve already been working on, whether it’s basic commands, crate manners, or specific behavior routines. Consistency is key, and I always strive to keep your pet’s progress moving forward while you’re away. I aim to keep your pet’s day as normal and stress-free as possible, offering them love, play, and structure. I also provide regular updates, photos, and messages so you can feel confident that your pet is safe, happy, and in good hands. I’m tidy, responsible, and always make sure your home is just as you left it—or better. Your pet’s well-being, safety, and happiness are my top priorities.

About: I have had animals much of my life and have always been a responsible caretaker. I enjoy the company, love and unwavering affection of animals and strive to provide that in return.

About: I have worked professionally with dogs for 5 years, and have had personal dogs my whole life. As such, I have experience working with dogs of all ages and breeds, including young puppies, dogs with behavioral struggles, and dogs with medical needs. I am comfortable administering medications, and will do my best to accommodate every dog's unique needs. I am generally available all day Sundays, Mondays, and Tuesdays with some minor exceptions. I work full time at an animal sanctuary, so animal care is a major part of my everyday life, and I wouldn't have it any other way. I have many years working with animals, including those struggling with behavioral issues. I am experienced in reading animal body language to ensure the safety of everyone involved, and the animals safety and comfort are my top priority.

About: I had a dog growing up, who taught me how to love, and be loved like no other! I learned, that a pet, is a family member: and someone’s baby, who trust us to watch over them, while their humans are away! I strive to love your fur baby, as much as you do, and provide the best care possible! I have a partner, who helps me watch homes and pets! He loves animals, especially dogs, and cats! Caleb is currently available any time and day! Isamar works full time 7:30-4 pm monday-friday. If it is in Newberg , I take a lunch break where I can relieve/ check in on the pets, as well as my partner, meaning they would not be alone longer than 2 hours at a time! I am off and available weekends full time, with summer, holiday, and other type of breaks! The specific care depends on the needs, but our home is welcomed to any fur baby, meaning they have access to any space ! We have a fenced yard, with lots of room to roam, play and run around in! They will always be with a human watching or cuddling them .

About: If you want your animals to be well cares for, tired from playing and treated like a family member, I am the right choice for you! I have always had animals in my life! When I turned 18 I got myself a puppy. I have trained and taken care of her for the past 7 years! My friends and family often come to me and ask me to help when their dogs are misbehaving because of how well my dog is trained. I have dog sat many times over the years and figured I should get paid for it now. I work a full-time compressed schedule. Due to this I always have 3-4 days off a week. I am looking to fill some of that free time with something I love doing. Walking and taking care of animals! I already walk my dog so I would be happy to walk yours as well! I will drop in when needed and let your animals out to go potty. I can feed them if needed and play with them until they are tired! I can accomadate almost anything.

About: I’ve been around dogs all the time growing up, I know how to care for them and act around them. Many times I’ve been called on to dog sit for friends and family going on trips and loved getting to care for them! I’m a stay-at-home wife and am home most of the time, dog walking is the perfect way to get out of the house in the fresh air and care for some lovely pets! When I walk your dog I will be very careful to keep him leashed at all times when he is not in your backyard or house, so as to keep him from getting lost.

About: I've grown up around animals on a small family farm with sheep, chickens, dogs and cats. Animals have always been a priority in my life. I currently have cats, chickens and goats and I hate to admit it but I will always want more! Caring for pets both that are mine and others has been part of my life since I can remember. From helping birth lambs or caring for mamma cats in labor I've done close to it all when it comes to animal care. Animal behavior has become an interest in the last 8-10 years and I have worked to learn more about training and behaviors as it helps with their individualized needs. Making sure that your animals are not only comfortable but happy and safe while your away is my main goal. Pet care for my animals happens daily. I wake up and am set into the potty and feed schedule not only for my indoor animals but for my outdoor livestock pets as well. Animal care has been subconscious since a young age. I have always enjoyed seeing the happiness of animals and my schedule as of late has made that easier and easier to make a larger part of my life. My pets are spoiled, and yours will be too. Cuddles, loves, and butt scratches on demand in my care. Special instructions will be followed to ensure pet happiness and safety at all times.

About: I have grown up my entire life with all kinds of pets including cats, dogs, gerbils, fish, horses, and more and have always genuinely loved caring for animals. I especially have a soft spot for cats and dogs and I can't wait to meet your pets! When walking dogs I will be sure to take your pet on safe, engaging routes for them so they can get plenty of exercise. I will be sure to give them plenty of extra love and attention as well! I have many years of house and pet sitting experience and will take the time to follow all your specific directions. Whether its extra clean up around your home, specific pet bedtime routines, (I personally love giving my cat, Schmendrick special bedtime treats!) or anything else pertaining to excellent care for your home and pets, I am happy to provide it! I love taking pictures of animals and will take the time to send photos and frequent updates on how their doing while on our walks or while you're away. I understand and believe that all pets are family and I will absolutely treat yours as such!

About: "Experienced and reliable pet caregiver with a passion for animals. Skilled in providing personalized care, including feeding, walking, grooming, and administering medications. Adept at handling pets of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments, with years of experience ensuring their safety, comfort, and happiness. Dedicated to building trust with both pets and their owners through attentive and compassionate service." Pet care fits into my daily routine by starting with feeding and ensuring fresh water first thing in the morning. I then take the dog for a walk or engage in some playtime to burn off energy. Throughout the day, I check in to ensure the pet has everything they need, including meals, bathroom breaks, and comfort. In the evening, I provide another walk or play session and spend time bonding. I also make sure to administer medications or bathe the pet as needed, all while keeping their space clean and comfortable. As a pet sitter, I enjoy engaging in fun activities like playing fetch or tug-of-war, offering puzzle toys for mental stimulation, and taking daily walks. I also make sure to stick to regular meal times, give bath time when needed, and administer any necessary medications. My goal is to provide a routine that keeps pets happy, healthy, and comfortable while their owners are away.

“Emily was great! She was great and on time for every walk. She even came for a walk for me very last minute. She's a life saver, I highly recommend!”

About: I’ve taken care of all different kinds of animals. From raising a steer to bottle feeding a kitten. I am able to walk, play, and nurture your pet. I am on the board of Noah’s Haven Rescue in McMinnville, OR, and am always looking to help out in anyway I can! I have 8 dogs that I adore. My whole life is my animals. I am able to let out for frequent potty breaks, walks, feeding, etc. Animals are always something I have been passionate about. I provide a loving and safe environment for pets while they are not with their owner.

About: All my life I’ve been surrounded by dogs, and their company has always brought me so much joy. I truly believe everyone deserves the happiness a dog brings. I currently live with four cats, one of which is named Ricki — who honestly acts like a dog himself and loves going on walks and car rides. I have hands-on experience with senior dogs, dogs with disabilities, and dogs who experience seizures. I love taking pups on walks (weather permitting), going to dog parks so they can socialize, and giving them plenty of love and mental stimulation. I’m a strong believer in animal rights and I never take their trust for granted. Their safety, comfort, and happiness always come first with me. Rover is an amazing way to find someone you trust with your best friend, and I would love the chance to care for and look after your pet like they’re part of my family. I live right in town with a reliable car, which makes traveling to and from jobs easy. I currently work a couple of part-time jobs, but I’m able to schedule pet care around them with plenty of availability. I’m flexible, responsive, and able to make mid-day visits, morning/evening drop-ins, or full days depending on what your pet needs. When caring for pets in my home, I always keep the space clean, safe, and comfortable. I make sure animals have fresh water, the right amount of food, and a calm environment. Cats always have clean litter, and dogs get supervised outdoor time and structured care. In a client’s home, I follow all routines exactly as instructed and treat your space with respect. Your pet’s safety and comfort always come first.
