You will find that I am very dependable, caring (love to give lots of petting and cuddle time) and active - love to take dogs on walks and play a bit of fetch or play laser tag with cats. I can take your loved one out for a walk in the morning before going to work (around 6-7am) and then again after 5pm (plus drive time). If I am very near to your house or am staying over night I can also let your pet out for another potty break before bed time. I work in the Lake Oswego area off of the Kruse Way corridor, so if you live near this area I could also do a mid-day / lunch potty break. I am happy to feed your pet according to their schedule as long as it is outside the hours I am at work (8am-5pm Mon-Fri) and give the recommended amount of treats at the time indicated. I am an active, fun loving, outgoing person with people and pets - especially dogs as they are so animated themselves. I have never had issues with pets not liking me; in fact if they are stand offish or the shy type they usually feel more comfortable with me than most others (besides their parents of course). I feel like they sense my good spirit and are happy to have me around. I have pet sit for both dogs and cats in combination with house sitting here and there over the years. Usually more so for friends and on occasion friends of friends. I have done so both in the Portland area and also while I was living abroad.
