Dog Walking Mount Hope

About: I've taken care of dogs and cats, including my own, for as long as I can remember. I have trained my pets as well as other's in basic obedience. I like to study dog psychology and I have a bachelor's degree in psychology. I've taken care of all kinds of dogs from tiny-huge and fearful-calm temperaments. My favorite breeds to care for are large breeds, most specifically breeds like pitties, mastiffs, and dobermans, but I love all dog breeds too and love how every dog has their own unique personality. I've also cared for cats doing volunteer work and have 2 of my own. I'm currently available anytime of the week all year besides the few times per year that I travel. I am working to potentially have a career with dogs. For care in the client's home, I will do whatever is instructed to me to be done for the pet. I am good at reading dog body language and understanding their needs. I've cared for fearful/avoidant dogs and hyper/clingy dogs alike. I am not able to provide care in my own home since I live with family and own 2 rescue cats.

“Sophia is the best!! She takes such good care of my pups and she is so helpful, especially with last minute requests! She is my go-to dog sitter!”

About: As someone who works online, my hours are completely flexible and can be done most anywhere. I use this to my advantage as a pet-lover. It means I get to be surrounded by pets as much as I can, and as someone who cannot have their own dog, I cannot express how fulfilling and heartening it is for me to do so. I have also pet-sit for friends and family all my life. I truly love animals. I go in with this mindset: how would I want others to treat my home-space and my own pet? My aim is that you can travel with a peaceful certainty your pet will be showered with love and attention, and you don't have to worry. I genuinely love animals, and as an introvert, I spend most of my free time with them whenever I can. My schedule is very flexible. I make my own hours with my online work, and I am usually available for sitting anytime. My summer sitting schedule is open, and as a newbie to this site, I'm looking forward to doing a really good job at a reasonable starting rate. (So far I've had a great experience). I am responsible and extremely mindful of people's plans and expectations. I try to be as professional as I can, returning messages as soon as possible. Please don't hesitate to reach out to me and feel free to ask me any questions you may have. I am a creative arts teacher (working online) and I hail from Central Oregon. I have an MA in Myth and Psych, and I really like to travel and learn new things. platform. Animals are by-far my favorite thing, on par with painting and writing. My main passion is painting. I love experimenting with acrylic on canvas and I am trying to teach myself watercolor. I’m introverted and love to read and write. Animals, especially dogs, have my whole heart. I have always wanted a pet, but my love of travel has held me back. When not traveling, I'm a homebody. (In short, I’d probably prefer to hang out with your pet, rather than go out on the town..) I like to be cozy with books, tea, and walks in nature. I have a car, and I am flexible with my schedule. I want to accomadate the sensitivities and special needs of any household and/or pets, and I welcome anyway I can to make you feel more comfortable with me as your pet-trustee. Thanks so much for your time! At the moment, I do not care for pets in my own home. But if I get the opportunity I would put just as much care and compassion in that as I do as a walker/sitter.

“Vanessa is great, this is the second time she has been available at the last minute to help with our dog. I injured my knee and couldn’t walk her so I was super grateful that Vanessa was able to help!”

About: - Grew up in the country surrounded by dogs, cats, reptiles, chickens, and other farm animals my whole life. - I’ve house sitted for family friends dogs and plants - I highly prioritize communication and safety on both sides I’m very available at the moment as I just graduated. I am happy both to set up a reoccurring service or stay flexible from week to week over the summer. I can’t keep animals in my apartment, but I am physically and mentally capable of the challenges regarding pets like crates, leashes, exercise/play, differences in personalities, and minor discipline if wanted.

“Sarah and Blake are great. My 2 huskies loved them. They came on time and they were very nice.”

About: Every since I was a kid I have been around animals. My grandma had 3 dogs and that’s where my love for dogs started. My roommate has relied on me multiple times to take care of her cat. I also have a lot of experience watching dogs for friends and family. My goal is to make the dog feel happy and get some extra love. I work in healthcare with a job that allows me to create my own schedule depending on my clients. I will always make sure your pet is fit in my schedule. With having an open schedule allows me to spend more time with your fur baby! I currently live in an apartment with roommates and two cat, so unfortunately I will not be able to board the animals at my place. But I’m available for all the other options. Look forward to getting to know your and your pups or cats! :)

“Great dog walkers. Give detailed information from the walk. Easy to work with. Very nice people.”

“Mariya takes great care of my pup - Bella is always relaxed and happy when she comes back.”

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was a kid. I love all animals and treat them all as if they were my own! I currently do not work-so my schedule is wide open and flexible to take care of all of your pets needs. I am open to walking, dog sitting and more! I have a dog to keep your fur baby company of staying in my home. I do not have a fenced yard but like to go for walks, and in park adventures.

About: I am Suzy I grew up on a farm in a small town. I just retired from being a private hospice caregiver. I have experience with dogs, cats, cows, pigs, goats and horses. I have had my own dogs and cats and started helping more with pet sitting and dog walking for friends and family. I have an alternative medicine degree and it has helped me not only in my personal life but also with my animals lives. I am good with dogs and cats that have high energy and separation anxiety. I am loving being retired and building my pet sitting business that revolves around cuddles with cats and dogs. I started doing this because I have 3 grand pups and 1 grand cat along with 1 human grand daughter and it has brought me peace and happiness. I was lost on what I wanted to do with this part of my life. I immensely enjoy pet sitting and meeting new pet owners and pets. I am not in a position to have pets at my home. However in your home I am there to help your animal not feel alone by giving them the attention they need or what you have requested.

About: I’ve grown up with pets my entire life from dogs, cats, horses, chickens, and I’ve had experience with goats, sheep, cows, geese, ducks, exc. I helped someone who had dogs that had puppies and that was challenging but an amazing experience. I’ve got lots of love and experience with all different dog breeds & temperaments. I currently have dogs, cats, chickens, and geese of my own! I am currently a stay at home parent to two kiddos. One is in school so most of my days are free. Tuesdays & Thursdays late afternoon/evening are blocked out as we have a prior commitment of gymnastics. I have a fenced yard at home but I do live in the woods and have some bit of land that is not immediately fenced off. I always keep a close watch on my pets daytime or nighttime and I would do the same for yours if they were at my home. I would follow the pet owners lead and what they feel is best for their pets at their own home and do my best to go above & beyond meeting the fur baby needs/owners needs.

About: I have owned and loved on numerous dogs my entire life. I can never remember a time when I didn't have a tail waggin', face lickin', life long companion. No special skills here, just a heart that overflows for all dogs. I am a newly retired school district worker. My true passion has always been in taking care of animals. I don't really travel and what a better way to spend my days I have a huge fenced yard and a walking trail right behind my house that I use on a regular basis. Your furry friend will be allowed to roam wherever and sleeping on the furniture will never be a problem.

About: Animal lover since I was little, I’ve had personal and professional experience caring for a wide range of animals. From reptiles, bunnies, guinea pigs, dogs, and my favorite-cats, I’ve seen it all. Aspiring to work in the veterinary world, I will always treat your fur(or scale!) friends as my own. Spending time with animals is truly one of my favorite things to do and seeing them happy and healthy is always my number one goal! I’m currently working a weekend position while trying to build pet care into my more substantial work. I am available quite frequently throughout the week, and I’m available on the weekends days, it will just be outside of whatever shift I’m working. Going on walks is something I try to fit into my personal life every day, being able to walk with your pups or checking on other animals is just an added bonus! My biggest thing is being aware. Animals, though adorable, aren’t the smartest. I try to be proactive by making sure the areas I’m in are always well-kept and safe for the animals. My second priority is keeping them on as much of their routine as they can, making your absence a little more manageable. I always like to make sure to spend quality time with everyone, do any consistent rituals that they have, and just stay consistent so not only are they safe, but they’re feeling the love.

About: I have a deep love and appreciation for my fuzzy little friends and all that they have taught me. I have learned everything I can to support my own pets and maybe even yours! I know how to perform CPR on both cats and dogs. I am comfortable following care plans for senior pets. Trained to provide subcutaneous fluids to kitties. I am currently available Monday - Thursday, barring the occasional appointments. I work long hours over the weekends so I am unfortunately not available at all Friday - Sunday I am a big believer in routine, as I know my fur babies definitely have and prefer theirs. I am happy to stick as close to their normal routine as possible.
