I have a calm energy most animals welcome and I’m usually able to gain their trust early. Having raised 2 dogs and several cats through medical conditions and several moves, I’ve become very attuned to their body language which helps me to understand their needs and wants.

About: I've spent the last 13 years as the proud owner of a reactive dog, which means I truly understand the nuance, patience, and trust that goes into caring for dogs with big personalities. That experience has made me a more attentive, calm, and thoughtful caregiver for every dog I meet. Beyond my own pup, I've volunteered as a dog walker with the Humane Society, where I worked with dogs of all temperaments and backgrounds. I've also been a reliable go-to sitter and walker for family and neighbors for years. Whether your dog is shy, energetic, selective with strangers, or needs a little extra patience, I get it, and I've got you covered. Your pet will always feel safe, loved, and right at home with me. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily life! I work a flexible schedule, which means I'm available as needed: mornings, afternoons, or evenings. Whether you need a last-minute walk or a planned sitting arrangement, I can usually make it work. Your dog will never have to wait long for attention, a bathroom break, or some good playtime! Your dog's safety and comfort are my top priority. I have a securely fenced yard where dogs can run, sniff, and play freely. My own dog has been my companion for 13 years, so I'm well-versed in reading dog behavior and keeping things calm and safe. I'm experienced with reactive dogs and know how to create a low stress environment. I'll always keep you updated with messages and photos so you can relax knowing your pup is in good hands.

“Great experience”

“My black lab Sophie loves Judson! She gets so excited to see him for her walks. Judson has been so great to work with her on training during their walks with a focus on her reactivity to other dogs. So glad to have Judson in Sophie's world!”

Mary P.

“My dog instantly connected with Mari and gets so excited when she comes over for weekly walks. Mari is personable and communicates well. She always tracks and takes at least one photo while out and about. I would recommend her 100%.”

Tiffany S.

“YAY! So grateful I found Elaine. I twisted my ankle and she was there helping me every day for 7 days so that I could rest. Her energy, kindness, flexibility, communication, and love of animals is so evident. I would let Elaine take care of all of my animals at any moment. I will absolutely have her walk Ginger again. And also boarding!”

About: I have an 11 year old rescue beagle with special needs and a whole lot of stubborn. I have learned a lot from him, especially patience. I recently moved back to richmond and am only working part time. I have a very flexible schedule and can care for a pet at almost anytime. I cant have your pets in my home, but I am more than happy to care for your fur babies at yours. I understand just how important your dog is to you, and I would treat them just as I treat mine. With all the love and treats I can.

About: I’ve taken care of cats and dogs since I was a teenager. I love animals so much, each is so unique! I have also done extensive dog training with my corgi for 3 years, she has anxiety and reactivity issues. So I’m well versed in those behaviors in animals! I am a pediatric nurse at Randalls in Portland. Rover is something I do on the side for fun because I enjoy it! I also just bought my first home so the extra income is very helpful. I am currently moving into my new home which is very spacious. I personally crate my dog at night, but let her roam inside during the day. I can follow whatever directions you need for your fur baby!

About: I have always been a go to for my neighbors and family pet sitting needs! Im reliable to do what’s expected. Im also very patient! Im currently working and traveling, so I have free time while i’m at home after work. Available in the mornings, and afternoons to walk dogs and play with them! In my house we have 4 dogs, but the husky is mine. I walk her everyday, give her lots of cuddles and one on one play time. As well as with the other dogs in my house. We all go on car rides and out for hikes. We feed them clean food and take them to the vet for check ups and give the best love we can! I also have 3 cats so i’m very lucky to experience the cat energy.

“Francisca was amazing! She went above and beyond while I went out of town for 7 days. I was so anxious to leave my pup alone and Francisca made me feel so comfortable. She gave great daily communication and updates. She took my pup to run some errands and even spent extra time with my pupper after the walks to make her feel safe (My dog and I have never been apart that long). I could see on the house camera that she treated my pup/my home with such respect and treated my pup and if she were her own. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Francisca to another seeking a walker/sitter and I will definitely be using her in the future! I think I even made a friend! ?❤️”
