Dog Walking Metolius

About: I’ve lived with or taken care of dogs of all sizes, breeds, personalities, and needs my entire life! Have a high energy and chaotic fur baby? It’s a good thing I love walks and playing! Got a more relaxed and calm dog? We can go to the park and read a nice book together! I am a recently graduated college student waiting to start my Masters program so my days are vastly open! I would love to fill my days with your animals and helping out where I can! I am attentive to all animals and carefully read all care instructions left by owners. I am also very careful with the weather conditions as animals are more susceptible to heat and cold then we are!

About: Hi! I'm Megan, and I've been around animals my entire life. I grew upon a farm and currently have a 130 lb. Newfoundland, so I'm very comfortable handling large breeds as well as small dogs and cats. I understand how important it is to trust someone in your home and with your pets. I follow care instructions carefully and treat every home with respect. Whether it's daily walks, feeding routines, medications, or simply keeping your pets company, I make sure they feel safe and comfortable while you're away. I provide clear communication and updates so you can relax knowing your pets are in good hands. I have a flexible schedule and can provide morning, midday, and evening visits as needed. Since my daughter is sometimes with her dad I am also available for overnight house sitting. I plan my day around your pet's routine to keep things consistent and stress-free. I treat your home and pets with respect and care. I carefully follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, and any specific routines you provide. I am comfortable with large and giant breeds, and I prioritize safety, secure doors, and clear communication. You will receive regular updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing.

About: I've always had a huge heart for animals and taking care of things in general. I've taken care of my own animals since I was 8 or 9 years old and did 4H for 4 years. Family and friends always had me as there pet sitter because not only was I attentive and took good care of their animals, but I absolutely loved doing it! I'm up for any challenge and any type of animal and I promise to take excellent care of them. I have a couple cats of my own and am very close with my moms dogs who live next door! I am currently in school but taking online classes so I can take my schoolwork wherever I go! I am looking for a part-time job but don’t have one at the moment so I am very flexible with my time. I live in a small house by myself. It is part of a duplex that I share with my mom. She is aware that I will be watching peoples pets on the premises and we both own our own pets, so we are very aware of the risks such as pet hair and accidents. We share a fenced back yard that is pretty large. It is about a quarter of an acre. I have one cat and she is very friendly with other animals. I used to live on a farm with her so she is used to other furry friends.

“We booked Corrie for a dog walk last minute and I must say, she was very friendly, professional, courteous and accommodating. She was sure to send photos of her visit with our dog and let us know how her walk went. She was also very patient in letting our dog warm up to her as our dog can be leery of strangers at first. We’ll definitely use her again in the future ?”

“Airanna was on time, communicated well, and most importantly was great with our sweet dog who can react to other dogs and animals. We will be delighted to hire her again.”

“She walked our big “difficult” dog, and made it seem like no issue! She also came at a moments notice and and was extremely punctual. Would recommend!!”

About: We have both been around and owned dogs since we were kids. I worked in a vet clinic from the time I was 14 all throughout high school. I also worked with a dog groomer for a few summers. I am an Animal Behavior College certified Dog Trainer as well as a wildlife biologist. Let's just say I love animals!! We are cat lovers too and would be more than happy to care for them also! We would provide the same level care for your pets as you do. We like to treat them like a member of our family and hope that they enjoy their time with us so much that they hardly know you are away. We know it is an honor and a privilege to be trusted with caring for your fury family member and we take that seriously and strive to never disappoint. I currently work from home for my main career as a Spatial Data Analyst (wildlife related). Your pet would have someone around aside from the occasional trip to the store or other errand. I will always communicate openly about my schedule during your visit so you are aware of any times I may have to be out of the house. I have a large fenced backyard and a 4-year-old Great Dane to keep your dog company! Thus, for stays in my home your dog must be dog-friendly, non-aggressive, and not afraid of large breeds. I also have four cats. I do have a doggie gate that keeps the cats separated, but one of them can jump the gate as she likes to sit on top of the kitchen cupboards and observe. Aaron and I have two sons, ages 7 and 10. They both have been around dogs their entire lives and are very used to respecting their space and letting dogs warm up to them. With that said, they are still kids. So for stays in our home, your dog will have to be good with other dogs, young kids, and cats. For stays in your home, your dog ideally will be okay with kids but my kids don't always need to come with depending on the dates of the stay.

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and caring for them comes very naturally to me. I’ve had pets growing up as well as currently, and have often watched dogs for friends and family over the years. I’m comfortable with different types of animals and have experience caring not only for dogs and cats, but also horses and chickens. I’m attentive, calm, and very respectful of each animal’s unique personality and needs. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, loved, and relaxed while their owners are away. I work remotely as a full-time artist and content creator, so my schedule is very flexible and allows me to give pets lots of attention throughout the day. I’m available for walks, feeding, playtime, and check-ins throughout the day and evening. I truly enjoy spending time with animals and naturally build my routine around their needs. When caring for pets in a client’s home, my priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and relaxed in their familiar environment. I carefully follow the owner’s instructions for feeding, routines, walks, and any special care needs. I aim to keep their routine consistent so they feel secure while you’re away. I’m calm, attentive, and respectful of both the home and the animal’s personality and boundaries. I’m also happy to send regular photo and text updates so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and well cared for.

About: I grew up with cats and dogs. I am comfortable with a wide variety of breeds and their needs. I have experience with both puppies and senior dogs. I genuinely love animals, and taking care of them has always been a passion of mine. I have nearly a year of full-time experience working in a doggy daycare environment. During this time, I developed a strong ability to read canine body language and communication, manage group dynamics, and respond appropriately to a wide range of temperaments and energy levels. I strive to keep educating my self so I can continuously improve my skills in taking care of animals. I am able to create my own schedule. I would be able to accommodate your pet or pet’s, with routine walks, breaks and check in. I take care of any animal as if they were my own. My priority is to make all animals and humans involved comfortable. My clients homes are treated with respect and I always pick up after my self. I genuinely love being around animals and spending time with them. I strive to gain and maintain trust with my clients and their fur babies.

About: I love animals of all kinds and offer exercise, love, treats, and snuggles. Your pup will be safe and having fun with me. I have always had dogs growing up, and currently have two adventurous girls (3.5 & 8). I’m available in the evenings and on and off during the day as I work from home, and love to go on adventures with my pup so yours would fit right in too! Hiking, walking, playing fetch, and swimming are fun activities that I like to take my dog on. I am strict, but always reward with treats and love when your dog is being good. I have a every dog friendly environment and would love to spend time with your pet. I especially love running, and would love to make sure your pup gets enough exercise! I have a dog door as well so pups can always go in and outside into our fenced yard if needed. I work from home and my job is super flexible, so it’s really easy to just pop out for a walk or play at the park. I love to take my dogs out in our yard and throw the ball for them. We also have a dog door so they can go in and out freely into our fenced front and back yard. Always with understanding and caution - every pup is different so I want to do what to takes to make sure everyone feels comfortable and safe!

“Quyanna does an excellent job, Suka gets a lot of exercise during his time with her.”

About: Hey, I'm Riley! I grew up in Bend, OR my whole life. I moved to Texas in 2019, and just moved back in the middle of 2025. I ran a dog sitting business in Texas and had the pleasure of watching over 200 dogs during my time there (in and outside of Rover). Watching dogs has brought so much joy into my life, and I’ve built strong relationships with both the pets and their owners - I've never had a single client with a bad experience. Aside from dog watching, I’m a local insurance agent with the flexibility of being able to work remote whenever I want to. If needed, I’ll never leave your pups alone unless it’s for a quick grocery run or needed errand. My guarantee: - I never board dogs from different owners at the same time. - While leashed, no dog will ever get away from me, no matter the size. I am bigger than 99% of people and will always remain in control. - Your dog will remember me if we meet again! I spend lots of time loving on these dogs😁 Looking forward to meeting you and your pup! I’m available on call 24/7! Since I’m not required to be in the office at all times, my schedule is super flexible with being able to do this. Depending on your dog’s needs, I will always give TONS of attention and affection! I give walks & potty breaks every 1-2 hours. Even more often for puppies.

“Alex was so patient and kind with our dog Littles. This was Littles' first time going walking with a pet sitter and he tried to guard the house and scare her off. However Alex was kind enough to come again that very evening while we were home to spend some time with him so that he could get to know her better. And even though he was nervous again the next time she came, she spent time with him, giving him treats, and finally got him to warm up enough so they could take a walk. And of course Littles enjoyed the walk! I will definitely use Alex again when we are in town and need a pet sitter.”

About: I have been around dogs of different temperaments and personalies my whole life and I'm the kind of person who stops to pet every dog I come across. When I spend time with my dogs I enjoy being outside and active, just as much as hanging out and giving pets. I've never met a dog I didn't get along with, and I promise they'll love hanging out with me (maybe too much). I like to either go for a walk, run, ski, or maybe even for an excursion into the mountains. It really depends on the dog though. If we need to keep it low-key then we'll just do a few laps in the neighborhood or even just hang out at home. Aside from getting the pup some exercise, I will often go spend time with friends or go run errands. In these cases I like to bring the dog with me as much as possible, but again, it depends on the dog. If you have a younger dog I can do some very basic training in obedience, commands and behavior. I work inconsistent hours and days. Outside of that I spend time outside or at the house cooking and hanging out with friends. Typically if I'm not working I will spend most of the day with the pet. When I do work, I can be gone 8 to 14 hours, so I like to get up super early to walk the dog, and take care of chores. This really depends on the pet. Some dogs like to flee if they get out, some like to stay around the people. Some dogs are friendly to other dogs, some are not. Some are all bark and no bite, some no bark and all bite. Learning how the dog does in different situations helps me figure out where I can take them, and how to take care of them and keep them safe. I think the big thing about house sitting is making sure they have everything they need before I leave them for an extended period of time: taking them out to poo, making sure they're fed, making sure there's no human food left out for them to snatch, etc.

“Alicia is the best! My boy loved her and she was very in tune with his needs. Her experience was valuable for me to learn from. He was so happy after his walk to have a special friend :)”

About: I have my own dog, got him at 12 weeks he is 7 now. I also grew up with dogs as a kid to adulthood. My dog has a lot of health problems so I know a bit when it comes to a sensitive dogs or ones that needs things done a certain way because of a condition. It really depends on the day, but mostly I could so daily or weekly. I’m dealing with some health stuff and my dog has too. So I’m currently working on those but have plenty of time most days to do something like this. I have a fenced in yard for my dog, when I was in college one house I did it so he was constantly on a leash outside, another house I was in had fences but had to patch them up and make sure he couldn’t get out. I also created my dog at night he loves his crate. During the day when he is alone he has most of the house free to roam, but I will put down potty pads just in case. If clients are okay with there dog out or crated I’m for both.

About: I’ve had pets and family pets I’m always ready and willing to give them what they need. My baby loves animals too. It will be fun! I feel like they are the same as humans. I made a lil human! So I can manage my son loves dogs too. Just happy to get out more. I don’t have any pets anymore mine got old. I make sure they are feed and tuckered out before bed. Getting as much attention as they need.
