Dog Walking Midway

About: Being raised on a small farm, there have always been cats & dogs around to share in the ups & downs of life. I love leaning into each individual's personality and working with positive reenforcement to catch the animals doing good behavior! I have experience training/working with dogs of all ages. Sometimes our furry friends need extra care. I am experienced in oral medicine administration, wound care, ear & eye treatments (if need be)! I am available for pet care on a daily basis. I care for my cats & dog daily. If ever I need backup support, I have a network of folks willing to lend a hand. When pet sitting, I follow the instructions given by the owner regarding when to feed, how much food, how often they need to go outside. Beyond that, I typically tidy up the space every evening, sweeping/vacuuming, refreshing waters, etc. I try to develop a routine so that the animals know what to expect and can relax into a sense of order. I generally find ways that each animal likes to play and find games that are fun and rewarding.

About: I have experience working in a pet health care cooperation where I was able to develop skills in taking care of dogs and gain experience on what it is like to provide love and tender care. With the understanding that every dog is different I strive my best to cater to each of their needs. I am energetic but also know when it is best to take a break therefore I will always make sure each dog has fun and also plenty rest when need be. I am flexible, responsible, and most importantly caring. Futhermore, I am very communicative and will make sure to be prompt and present in a timely manner. I will make sure that I maximize every experience with every furry friend I encounter! I have a fully open schedule, as I stay at home to focus on my passion for caring for animals. This means your pet will receive consistent attention, companionship, and supervision throughout the day. Because I’m home full-time, your pet will receive plenty of attention, interactive play sessions, enrichment, fresh food and water, clean spaces, and lots of love. I’ll carefully follow your pet’s routine, including medications, feeding schedules, walks, and any special preferences. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my highest priorities. I provide a calm, clean, and secure home where every pet receives individualized care and close supervision. Because I’m home full-time, your pet is rarely left alone and will enjoy plenty of attention, playtime, enrichment, and affection throughout the day. For boarding, I have a large, fully fenced yard where dogs can safely run and play. Cats have their own private rooms, giving them a quiet, stress-free space to relax and adjust at their own pace. My own pets are friendly and well-socialized, but they remain separate from boarding guests unless an introduction is specifically requested and appropriate. I carefully follow each pet’s routine, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise, and any special instructions you provide. I also take the time to understand each pet’s personality and body language, allowing me to respond appropriately to their individual needs and help them feel safe and secure. To give you peace of mind, I’ll send regular photo and video updates so you always know how your pet is doing. I treat every pet as if they were my own, creating a loving environment where they can relax, have fun, and feel at home while you’re away.

About: I grew up with five dogs from small to large. And now I love the crap out of dogs. I'm known as the dog whisperer at the dog parks. Definitely will have lots of cuddles, chases around the house, and lots of dogs to play and socialize with. At home, the dogs will have the run of the home. And my dog will leave them alone. I generally have other dogs that get along well. I have a small fenced yard so they have free access to potty in the backyard as I leave the door open. I work from home and have a flexible schedule. Generally I'll take the dogs on at least one 1.5mile jog per day. And then whatever rough housing they get into around the house. Animals have free roam of the house. I have a fenced yard although it's small there is a doggy door so they can get in and out.

“Andrea is awesome! I feel so much better knowing she can walk my dog and give her some love on long work days 😊”

“I recently got a puppy and booked an hour with Erica as part of his socialization process, to get him used to spending time with strangers. Erica and her daughter did an amazing job and I could tell Raider warmed up to both of them right away and felt very comfortable. It’s SO important for young puppies (especially giant breeds) to have positive experiences with new people. Thanks for helping to make sure I don’t wind up with a 120lb dog that’s afraid of people 🤣🖤Very much appreciated! 100% recommend”

Nicole C.

“Siobhan was very attentive, kind and I could immediately tell she loved my dog. I felt very comfortable handing him over as she was very familiar with my neighborhood as she used to live close by. She was timely and communicative. I will be using her again.”

“Linda is a great dog walker. My dogs love her.”

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with lots of experience caring for dogs and cats. I’ve previously walked dogs through Rover, cared for dogs in my own home, and grown up around family pets. I also raised my own cat from a kitten, which taught me just how much love and attention our furry friends need <3 🩷 PLEASE read. I have a very cute and cozy home, however, it is small. Therefore, in terms of house sitting, I can only accommodate SMALL dogs or medium (if you feel comfortable with your pup staying in a small home). The smaller the house, the more the love though 🩷 I’m doing pet care full time, so I can dedicate my time and attention to making sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved! Whether we’re going on walks, spending time playing, or just enjoying some cuddles, I’ll ensure every pet in my care to feel right at home. I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family members. I can’t wait to meet you and your pets! 🐾💕 I’m doing pet care full-time, which means I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to your pets! I’m able to plan my day around their routines, if that means walks, drop ins, feeding, or keeping them company. I’ll ensure your pets get the attention they deserve while you’re away. 🐾 Please note (it’s listed in my bio) that my home is small! I would love to care for your creature in my home, but can only accommodate small dogs. I have a cozy backyard for dogs to play and enjoy some outdoor time, along with a walkable neighborhood and Gabriel Park and Metzger Park nearby for walks and exploring! I’m happy to follow your pet’s usual routine and tailor our time together to their personality and needs.

About: Born and raised in Portland, Oregon! I grew up with dogs, cats and a guinea pig. I have also cared for rabbits, ferrets and sugar gliders. 🐶🐱🐰 I’m responsible, active, and genuinely love animals. I enjoy spending my free time outdoors, exercising, and curling up on the couch, so I’d love to have a furry companion join me! Fun facts: I was a varsity cheerleader for 9 years, I’m a second-degree black belt in Taekwondo, and I love giving back to my community. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! 🐾 I work as a Registered Dental Hygienist three days a week. I’m also a part-time online graduate student, which gives me additional flexibility. I’m happy to discuss your pet’s specific schedule and needs. I’ll follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, medication, playtime, and bedtime. I’ll treat your home and your pets with care and respect, and I’m happy to send regular updates and photos while you’re away. I have a fenced backyard, large crate if needed and a vehicle in case of emergency.

About: Hello my name is Maddi, I am recent graduate from OSU with a degree in Natural Resources! I have always been really interested in animals and they are a large part of my life. I worked at the Oregon Zoo for 5 years where I helped take care of the goats and ran the petting zoo. My family has always had multiple pets from dogs to cats to reptiles and rodents. I love to help my family and friends by caring for their pets while they are away from home, I really enjoy meeting and caring for new furry friends! In my free time I enjoy reading, painting and watching movies. I pride myself in excelling in everything I do and that includes making animals feel safe and loved. I’ve never met an animal that I couldn’t create a bond with. I’m looking forward to meeting you and your pet! I currently have a seasonal job at Lush for the holidays but I only work about 10 hours a week so I still have tons of free time to take care of your pups! I am available weekdays for house sitting, drop ins and dog sitting from 9 AM-11 PM. I am available most weekends but not all! I currently cannot offer bringing your pups to my own home but I can 100% come to your home and I will play with your pups, walk them, feed them and give them tons of cuddles!!

About: Hi! My name is Fayth and I’m 22. Growing up and throughout my life, I’ve cared for dogs and cats who have very different personalities and needs, including Brownie a Pomeranian-Poodle mix, June a German Shepherd, and Luckie a Gray American Shorthair. Caring for both types of animals taught me how important it is to understand each pet’s unique energy level, routine, and personality. As a full-time dental assistant, I’m dependable, patient, and detail-oriented, and I bring those qualities into every pet care experience. I love staying active and spending time outdoors, so whether your dog or cat enjoys long walks, playtime, or simply having a companion around, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. My goal is to provide the same care and attention I would want for my own pets. I’m currently available part-time on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays and would love the opportunity to care for your furry family members! 🐾💕 I am currently working as a full-time dental assistant Monday through Thursday, and I’m looking for part-time pet care opportunities on my days off. I am available all day Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, and I’m flexible with timing during those days. Pet care fits naturally into my routine since I dedicate my weekdays to work and enjoy spending my weekends providing attentive, reliable care for animals. I prefer to provide pet care in clients’ homes, where animals can remain in a familiar and comfortable environment. This helps reduce stress and allows them to stick to their normal routines, surroundings, and sense of security while their owners are away.
