Dog Walking Meadow Homes

“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!”

“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%.”

“Emily did great for a first meeting and walk with our pup. She can be slow to warm up and Emily was patient and very honest and communicative with how the visit went. Appreciate the extra step of cleaning up a mess our kitties made that wasn’t on the bill!”

About: I have taken care of elderly cats, sticking to a routine and administering saline treatment. I am energetic and fun for pets to be around. I'd love to take care of your pet while you're away and understand the importance of pictures and updates to know your best friend is safe and well cared for. I'm currently working full time as a sitter, dog walker and pet boarder. Focused on one pet boarding at a time. I only accept one pet/pet family at a time. I will take multiple pets but only from the same home. I have a fenced yard with space to run and play. I have one athletic and friendly dog, she is a 35 lb mixed breed who loves to chase balls, sticks and frisbees. She is friendly with other dogs, though cautious around large breeds, she warms up quickly. The backyard has easy access inside for all dogs, and water always available for pets.

“Alexis was prompt and communicative. I sent her to the wrong address first day and she was super flexible and willing to work with me. Appreciated all her help and will be using her services in the future.”

“Felicia has been so amazing! She covered for me on short notice and she has been wonderful with my older dog who can be reactive and crotchety. She’s also very sweet with my two kitties and good on updating me on everything going on with my fur babies. Highly recommend!”

“Cora was great and gave my little guy plenty of love and company on a a little walk!!! Would happily use again!!!”

About: I have a deep love for dogs and years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of different ages, breeds, temperaments, and medical needs. I previously cared for my own two senior diabetic dogs, one of whom also had a heart condition and Cushing’s disease, so I understand the importance of patience, routine, trust, and careful attention to detail. I am comfortable with senior dogs, special diets, oral medications, injections, and dogs who need a little extra care. Our home is currently pet-free, which allows me to give visiting dogs my full attention and can be a good fit for dogs who do better without other resident pets. I’m also the go-to pet sitter for family dogs and love giving dogs walks, attention, playtime, and affection based on their individual needs. Safety is always my priority, and I follow owner instructions closely so your dog feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. I work from home full time so I have a fairly flexible schedule which comes in handy for dogs needing a little extra care. I understand the importance of keeping them on a schedule whether it be for walks or medication. My primary goal is to make sure your dog feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I know how much trust it takes to leave your dog with someone else, and I take that responsibility seriously. I provide personalized care based on each dog’s routine, temperament, energy level, and specific needs. I do my best to keep feeding times, walks, medications, exercise, and daily routines as consistent as possible. I also have experience caring for senior dogs and dogs with medical needs, including oral medications, injections, and special diets. Our home is currently pet-free, which allows me to give visiting dogs my full attention. This can be especially helpful for dogs who prefer a calmer space or do better without other resident pets. I also have a fenced yard for supervised outdoor time. I’ll keep you updated with photos, videos, and notes so you know how your dog is doing while you’re away. I’m happy to follow detailed care instructions and answer any questions before or during your dog’s stay.

About: I am a dog mom to a young Mini Aussie and Cavalier mix. I have raised her since she was 8 weeks. I also have experience puppy and dog sitting for my friends and neighbors dogs. This includes walks, feeding, playtime, medication, cleaning, and car rides. I have volunteered at local animal shelters to take dogs on neighborhood walks to enrich their day and to help them get adopted. I have taken dogs on hikes and are aware of walking safety and managing dog interactions. I have a flexible work schedule as I work from home. I can be available for a single walk per day or multiple drop in visits per day. Monday and Thursday 9:30am-11am are the only times I will not be available. I can be available to a limited amount of repeat visits per week. Please reach out regarding schedule and booking questions. I understand as a dog parent that sometimes you are needing immediate pet care. I am a reliable, generous and fun dog mom. I will be offering drop in visits, dog walking, and pet sitting from my own home. My home has a fenced outdoor space, open space downstairs and upstairs for dogs to play. I have a very social and friendly dog that gets along with every dog she meets. We have many blankets and you are welcome to bring over any of your dogs favorite beds and comfort toys. I always have kibble and dog treats and feeding bowls on hand. Please feel free to bring your own as well.

About: I’ve had pets of all kinds including dogs, cats, reptiles, small animals, birds, and invertebrates. I’ve also worked at a pet store for the last year and a half so I have some knowledge on freshwater fish as well as experience administering medications to animals. I’m currently only working part time, about 12-18 hours a week, so I have more than enough time to check on and play with your pets! I’m super flexible and want to do anything I can to make sure your pets are as comfortable and happy as they possibly can be while their humans aren’t home!

“Cassie, is amazing! Our dog gets soooo excited to see her when she comes. She has been so flexible and adaptive to our dogs needs. I know she is in good hands when we are away!!!”

About: I've always loved animals and knew I wanted to work with them in some capacity. Since I was a kid I've been pet sitting for neighbors, or friends/family and then I started walking dogs in college to make extra money. Now, I have 4 years expirence working with dogs and cats and the occasional ferret and sugar glider as a Veterinary Technician. Your fur baby(babies) will be in safe hands with me and I will love and care for them as my own. I'm available most Wednesdays, Thursdays, Saturdays and Sundays for drop-ins, playtime or walks with your pets, feel free to message me to set something up <3 Currently I do not have availability for overnight stays. I make sure everyone gets fed, has fresh clean water, I can medicate if needed, I love engaging in interactive play and taking doggos for walks! I have experience reading animal body language too so I know when to take it slower or let them come to me if they seem anxious.

“Great, energetic young man who is just tremendous. Judson T has been walking our large Bernese Mtn dog for several weeks ( and into the next weeks.) as well as Doggy day care in our home. Can’t say enough about this lovely fellow. A privilege to meet his dogs Strider & Winnie May at our request Thanks Judson!”

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 cared for all sorts animals my whole life, from as small as a gerbil to as large as a llama. I have previous experience working in a boarding kennel and veterinary office. I have experience working with special needs animals and administrating medications. I work full time, 6-8 hour shifts 5-6 days a week. I am almost always done with work between 1 and 2 pm at the latest. I don't have consistent days off but can be flexible with availability. For pets who need extra care throughout the day (potty breaks every 4 hours, 3+ meals, etc.), I can typically work accommodations into my schedule for those in the 98664/98683/98684 area. I am well-versed in behavioral signs of animals and will make them feel safe and trusted while I am in their homes. My main goal is always to support your pets in whatever way they need.

About: I’ve had my own personal pets all my life and believe pets are family and treat them as such. I have also taken care of friends, and family pets as well. Currently, I do not have any pets of my own as I lost my 2 Boston terriers last year. Now I’m dedicating my time to help others care for their pet family members. I love animals and anyone who knows me, knows this about me. I work from home full-time and I can work from anywhere that has internet. I just bring my laptop and I’m able to care for your fur kids all day :) I am especially good at cuddles all day, walks, and feeding/playing with your fur kids. My motto is animals are better than humans because they are. I love them!

About: I've had my own pets since I was born and became the primary caregiver when I was 11. I've also been relied on to care for family members pets consistently over the last 4 years. I have a super flexible schedule as I work as a novelist and can work from anywhere. Whatever your needs I can probably work with. While in your home I will give your pets the care and love they deserve and strive to leave the home as I found it. I can't wait to make a new friend!

About: I've spent the last 14 years working in veterinary medicine, caring for pets through every stage of life—from energetic puppies to senior companions and pets with medical needs. I'm comfortable administering medications, monitoring pets with chronic health conditions, and recognizing when something doesn't seem quite right. What I enjoy most is getting to know each pet as an individual. Every animal has their own personality, routine, and little quirks, and I believe those details matter. My goal is to provide the same level of thoughtful, compassionate care I'd want for my own pets, so you can enjoy your time away knowing they're in capable hands. Pet care is already a big part of my everyday life. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to provide consistent care, plenty of attention, and regular updates throughout the day. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, enrichment activities, playtime, or simply having someone nearby for company, I'm happy to adjust my care to fit their routine. My goal is to make your pet feel as comfortable as possible while you're away. Your pet's safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet's routine, personality, and any medical or behavioral needs before every booking. If your pet is staying in my home, they'll have plenty of opportunities for play, enrichment, rest, and affection in a calm environment. To help keep everyone safe—including my own two dogs—I currently only accept small dogs (up to 30 lbs) for boarding and daycare, and I require a meet-and-greet before every boarding stay. If I'm caring for your pet in your home, I do my best to keep their daily routine as consistent as possible while respecting your home and following your instructions carefully.

About: I’m no animal expert, but I've had pets all my life, and put a lot of heart & effort into taking care of someone's pet just like I would my own any day! I work 4 hours in the evening, Mon-Thurs every week, but other than that, I have a lot of free time to take care of a family’s pet, & make sure their needs are met! I don’t have my dog with me anymore because my family moved to Idaho, but I have a dog with my dad; a black lab, Captain Jack (but we call him Cap for short) who I absolutely adore, and took care of when we were living together. Lots of walks, playtime, belly rubs, booty scratches, love & kisses, grooming, necessary discipline, feeding, etc. I also had my cat, Maybelle, at my mother's who is still with her because she kind of became the family cat. But I took care of her as she was originally my cat. I have had dogs & cats growing up so definitely familiar with both! For other people's pets, your pets, your rules. Your house, your rules. Anything you need me to do for your pet, I can do. If I haven't done something before, I will happily learn from you & do as you tell me.
