Highlights
Pet care experience
Loving the “quirky” ones the most!
I have been around dogs since I was a child. I used to walk my neighbors’ dogs. Now, I live with my 11-year-old French Bulldog, Mac. Through caring for him, I’ve learned how to be patient, gentle, and supportive — especially with senior dogs and dogs who need time to trust people. Mac has some unique needs, including potty training issues and age-related habits. I have experience giving him pills, applying ointments, using eye and ear drops, and trimming his nails and paw hair. Although I haven’t cared for other dogs in this way yet, I’m confident and gentle when it comes to daily care. I especially love caring for dogs who might need a little more time, attention, or understanding. I also take a very mindful approach to my own dog’s diet. I carefully combine multiple types of dry food, supplements, and ingredients to support a balanced diet. I even modify the portions based on his activity level. If you’re someone who puts a lot of thought into your dog’s nutrition, I’d be more than happy to support and follow any specific meal plans or routines you prefer! I’m also happy to keep track of your dog’s water intake and potty habits if that’s something you monitor!!
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Kaori is the best! I cannot put into words what a great caretaker she has been for Tony. Her place is his home away from home.
Kaori is great and so responsive. I will definitely bring my dog back to her!!
Kaori is AMAZING! Sunnei and I love her. She treats him with such care and diligence. And i greatly appreciate it. She’s also one of the sweetest people I’ve worked with so far. I will be continuing services with her for sure!
Koari took such amazing care of my baby and I felt so relieved knowing he was being so well loved. I would 100% trust her with him again and I know he's so excited for the next visit!
Kaori is the best! She loves and cares for Tony like he is her own. Tony always gets excited when he sees her. She is an awesome communicator and always keeps me up to date with what is going on with him. She sends great pics and videos and I feel lucky to have found her.
Kaori was an incredible dog sitter! She went so far and above what I'd expect from our pup spending a few hours with her. She was communicative and kind. Highly recommend you book her if you are in Portland! I'll be looking her up the next time that I am in town.

Schedule
I currently have a flexible schedule and spend most of my time at home. This allows me to give plenty of care and attention to the dogs I look after. I can take dogs on multiple short walks throughout the day, usually three to four times for 15 minutes each. If longer walks are preferred, I can do that two to three times per day. Keeping dogs comfortable, happy, and safe is always my top priority.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I offer a calm and clean home where dogs can relax and feel at ease. Dogs are allowed in the living and dining areas so I can always keep an eye on them. At night, I leave my bedroom door open so I can hear them if they need anything. I live with Mac, my senior French Bulldog. He takes a little time to get used to other dogs, but he is never aggressive. He enjoys calm company and usually spends most of his day napping. I keep my home tidy and hygienic so dogs can stay comfortable. We go for walks along the Willamette River or visit nearby dog parks. If requested, I can also provide photo updates or use a pet camera to keep you informed. * :. *.: * :. *.: * :. *.: * :. *.: Leaving your beloved dog with someone new can be nerve-wracking. To help ease your mind, I’m happy to offer a short complimentary daycare session — just to make sure both you and your pup feel comfortable and confident. * :. *.: * :. *.: * :. *.: * :. *.:
