Dog Walkers in Melrose, OR

About: I’ve had pets all my life. The past 20 or so years I’ve had several cats with special need, hyperthyroidism, kidney disease, diabetic. I can administer medication. I give my diabetic cat two shots a day. Also understand the importance of a special diet to maintain healthiness. Love dogs, can walk, play, check in on them and clean up after… a walk… Can feed and check in on any other types of pets but prefer no reptiles. Weekdays I’m available after 2:30 pm for longer visits. I work from home and could pop in for a quick check in if needed. My work schedule can be pretty flexible. On the weekend I’m available any time. At this time I would not offer pet sitting at my home. Any rules you have in your home I would follow to a “T” Example: indoor pets stay indoor, no pet off leash, if pet parent wants an anti bite harness. I would do what the pet parent wants.

“Did a great job walking my 2 dogs. Got them in boots and coats faster than I ever can. Very friendly and reliable.”

About: Greeting, My name is Helen. I’ve recently completed my contract in the military. During my time in the service I spent time caring for my colleagues dogs (I do love cats, but I’m allergic) and found myself actually branching out to others when they needed someone to watch their babies. I grew up always having a dog in our family, and know how important they are as family members. Their unconditional love is something I’ve always cherished, and it would be my joy and honor to care for your fur babies whenever. My schedule is flexible, and I am available often. It’s really not a hardship spending time with loving pups. I do have experience with pets that have special needs. I look forward to hearing from you and your fur members.

About: I've taken care of my own and others' pets since I was 10 years old, for family, friends, and later trusted referrals. I've done sitting for breeding kennels, pet families, and for dog trainers. I've worked as a Veterinary Assistant, and I'm a retired RN. My professional experience has been extensive, and that can benefit you and your pets. I'm also a member of Pet Sitters International, where I often take advantage of continuing education on all different types of pets. Taking care of pets has been one of the greatest joys of my life. Give me a call, I'd love to chat about your pets, and how I can help you with your needs. Thank you for taking the time to read my profile. Warmest regards, Laura I'm a retired RN, so I have plenty of time to give your pets. Daily or weekly visits are no problem. My time is flexible, and I'm willing to meet your special pet requests when time and ability allows. I treat others' pets as I would love and treat my own, recognizing that your family members are as important to you as mine is to me. Because of my previous profession in healthcare, I take my professionalism with me every day when I care for your pets in your home. I like to give my clients little extras as I'm able to. A handwritten note about something funny your pet did while in my care, a selfie, or even a copy of a quarterly newsletter I like to play with, containing pet care tips, and other topics. I take my pet sitting career as seriously as I took my previous healthcare career. I also take pets into my home on a limited basis, but do ask about that service in case I have openings. I have a six year old miniature Dachshund of my own, and she's well socialized. She loves having occasional playmates! She and I go for walks in the neighborhood, and occasional errands as weather allows.

About: I have grown up with dogs, raising all of them from puppies (starting at 10 weeks). I also worked for four summers at a dog daycare with dogs of all ages and breeds.

I have also volunteered with shelter dogs and cats with various behaviors and needs. I currently work 4 day weeks, but I have ample free time on my days off I have included in my calendar. Let me know how I can best fit your pet’s needs. I have a dog of my own who is very timid and territorial, so I do not offer services in at my own place. However, I will treat your fur babies with the same love as my own.

I pay attention to detail and behavior and keep an eye on their daily activities with a caring and patient sensibility. I currently work 40 hours at the local veterinary clinic but I made sure to set my schedule to my days off so that I can provide as much time to your fur friend as possible.

I have experience in dog sitting as well as dog walking and I am passionate about providing good care and excited to meet new pups! I fit pet care into my day/week routine because I have two dogs of my own. One is a pit bull and another is a boarder collie so to say they need care is an understatement. They have the upmost energy. I will play with them and wear them out so they get a good nights sleep. With that being said we walk, hike, run, go to the beach, play fetch , etc. as much as we can. I treat my puppies very kindly , if not they’re quite spoiled. 😉 I care very deeply about animals and I aim to help when I can !
