Pet care experience
PLEASE NOTE - Due to my schedule and personal priorities I am currently only considering services for past, existing customer. Thanks for your understanding. Whether dropping by or going for a walk, I'm here to be sure that you can be comfortable while away from your pet. I've always been drawn to all animals, but dogs have a special place in my heart! My husband, daughter, and I currently have a sweet and mellow mixed-breed Hound named Tulah, and an energetic but snuggly Rottweiler mix named Watson. I have a lot of experience caring for dogs. During my last year of college, I assisted my roommate in raising and training a guide dog puppy. I have been a volunteer dog walker at the Oregon Humane Society. At OHS I learned new skills in the following classes: Dog Safety and Handling, T-Touch for Dogs, and Managing a Multi-Dog household. With my lab mix, Pip (who passed away in April 219), I took the Reactive Rover class. So I know how to keep your four-legged friend safe and comfortable. I enjoy going on walks, and walking or hiking with a dog is even more fun! My goal is to be your best friend's second best friend.
Reviews
Audra was excellent! She took such wonderful care of our babes while we were out of town! I so appreciate the attention to details, consistent updates, pictures and special attention to our pup’s health care needs. Thank you Audra! I would 100% LOVE to have you take care of our dogs again in the future. I had no worries and knew they were in loving and capable hands!
Audra continues to be the best!!!
Audra is great!! She took amazing care of my dog and our house while we got married out of state. It was so nice to have someone reliable taking care of everything at home so we could relax and enjoy our big day. Audra sent thorough updates and adorable photos each day, and was able to get our dog out for good walks despite a particularly rainy weekend. she even got our dog some organic treats as a surprise :) After having a bad experience with our last dog sitter, I feel so much better now that we found Audra and will definitely be using her again soon!
Audra was super communicative with us, leaving us multiple messages about her experience with Shadow. Highly recommended

I will replicate your pet's normal routine and follow your instructions for their exercise and care. Walks, yard time for potty and/or play, whatever you prefer.
Information Audra P. would like to know about your pet
I know that most dogs thrive on routine so I want to know everything about your normal procedures and routines with your dog, as I will strive to stick to them. I would also like to know if your dog can be reactive towards other dogs or people, either on or off the leash. I will also learn and use the command words or hand signals that you use for your dog.
A typical day
I will primarily walk dogs in the Portland area in your neighborhood, depending on your dog's routine and your wishes for their care and exercise. If your dog enjoys a game of tug, I am all for that, and love a good ol' game of fetch too! There will be no shortage of petting and talking to your dog while I care for them, I'll treat them like my own. "Woof!"
