Seeking Canine Companionship
Pet care experience
I currently work from home and I am looking for playmates to go on adventures with during the day! I consider dogs to be one of the greatest gifts to humanity, their loyalty and companionship are unmatched and I believe it’s only fair to return this devotion and love :) I moved to Portland last August, I made the decision to leave my own pup at home with my wonderful family. While I miss him daily, I know he is being showered with love an affection back home, so I am looking to explore all of the wonderful parks and spend some quality dog time. I have had dogs throughout my life and they have always ended up becoming the center of my universe. I have experience with senior dogs, blind dogs, medicating dogs, and puppies. I would love the opportunity to unwind and spend some time outdoors with your pup!
Reviews
I have grown up watching Skye interact with and take care of both her own pets and the pets of others, and I have never met anyone who connects with animals the way that she does. She has treated my 14 year old Weimaraner, Gus, and her own dog, Roddy, with all the patience and kindness that she treats her friends and family with, and I know she will do the same for any dog that is placed in her care! Her genuine concern for the wellbeing and happiness of all animals allows her to connect with them in a very special way. Skye will be a great Rover caregiver!
I may be biased, as Skye is my daughter. But I have rarely met a person who has such a loving and empathetic connection with animals. Skye grew up in the countryside outside of Madison, Wisconsin. When she was a little girl, she would rescue mice, birds and bunnies from the clutches of our cat, Milo. She once found a fawn on the edge of our woods, called animal rescue to find out what to feed it, and made sure it stayed safe in the location its mother left it - as she was assured the mother would come back (and it did). Over the years she has been called on to care for friends cats, dogs, chinchilla’s, pet rats, and birds. She has grown up with dogs (large and small), cats, and pet rats. She has ridden horses, and when we took a trip to Scotland, she was the only one who the roaming sheep flocked around and let her pet them. She has just landed in Portland to begin her post college life, and she could not bare to leave her beloved little 10 year old poodle mix companion, Roddy, behind. It was clear to me, that it would break both of their hearts to be separated, so I drove out with them to help them launch their next adventure together. Skye put’s others before herself – especially animals. She is completely responsible and caring and would become a great friend to any pet she was able to develop a relationship with.
Skye is amazing! Not only is she super knowledgeable on dog care, but she has the patience and stamina to keep up with your pup! She has a warm presence that will comfort you and your pooch beyond your wildest dreams
I have known Skye for a very long time, and in that time she has always had pets in her life; dogs, cats, rats, baby deer... She is incredibly conscientious, responsible and caring. I do not hesitate in giving Skye my highest recommendation as someone to care for your pet. Dave

Information Skye C. would like to know about your pet
Is your dog friendly with cats? Are they house trained? What's their favorite activity to do? How do they respond to new people?
A typical day
I live near St. Johns and I often retreat to Forest Park during the day or the many other parks in this area. I also have a fenced in backyard and live in an incredibly dog friendly neighborhood. Since I work from home I like taking frequent breaks to get outside.
