Dog Walking Newberg

“So caring of my dog and she takes the best pictures of my pooch during his walks. Highly recommend!”

About: I've been looking after dogs, primarily small ones, for quite a long time now. Have had to feed and walk and watch over them plenty of times over the years for family members. Currently unemployed, so my schedule is quite free, which includes all reasonable hours of the day. Currently unable to watch over animals at my place of living. I personally care for my own cat and one of my mother's dogs on the daily, but the house itself isn't fit for me to watch over any additional animals.

“Shauna was amazing in communication and such a pleasure to meet as well! I love that she kept me updated about Simbas walk and overall such a nice person! I’m definitely going to keep booking walks with her ? would recommend 10/10 to anyone I know!”

“My pup absolutely LOVED Amy! This was my first time using Rover, so I was a little nervous about how it would go, but Amy communicated through text the entire time and sent photos during their walk. Will definitely book with her again in the near future!”

About: I’ve spent my whole life around animals and feel a genuine draw and connection to them. I genuinely love to spend my time with animals and am happy to provide that as a service that both you and your pet can be happy with! I am a recently graduated college student just looking to fill my time with something that is fulfilling to me. I work full-time but each day looks different. I am happy to work with you to find a time and/or schedule that works for all of us! I will take time to protect and provide for all pets in a safe and gentle way! I have felt and been told my whole life that I have a special connection with animals and I think that translates in the ways I care for them with love and gentleness.

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'm a positive reinforcement–based dog trainer. If you're working on training with your dog, I'm happy to reinforce those skills while you're away to help maintain the progress you've made. I'm comfortable with dogs of all ages, as well as dogs that may need a little extra patience or understanding. Every dog is different, and I think their care should reflect that. I'll tailor each visit to your dog's personality, routine, and needs. I have a flexible daytime schedule, which makes it easy to fit in walks and drop-in visits throughout the day. I'm usually able to accommodate a variety of times for either one-time visits or something more regular. My goal is to stick to your dog's normal schedule and routines as closely as possible. Just let me know what that looks like, and I'll make it happen. When I'm in your home, I follow the Scout motto: "Leave it better than you found it." I'll treat your home with the same care and respect I'd want someone to show mine.

“Ron is fantastic with our highly energetic Corgi! He's reliable and incredibly patient, and he never seems phased by his energy. You can tell Ron puts his whole heart into it. He genuinely cares about our dog's wellbeing. Our dog Kiyo absolutely adores the walks and gets so excited whenever he sees him. We've noticed a real difference in his mood and energy levels since we started using Ron, and we couldn't recommend him more highly.”

“Maleny has been walking my akita Larry for almost a year and he loves her. I can always depend on her to be on time, or to contact me if she's running behind. She takes wonderful pictures of Larry while they're walking, she keeps him safe from strays, and makes sure he walks on the grass as much as possible when the pavement is too hot. She is always open and easy to communicate with and I'm looking forward to her walking Larry in the future.”

About: For 15 years I have been pet sitting family, friends, and co-workers pet while they were out of town, needed someone to stop it, or to stay for a week during the holidays. I am a dedicated pet owner who wants all animals to receive love while I'm in there space. I offer walking and ride services for your pet. Send me a message I would love to meet you and your furry friends! I also provide other services for your pets send me a message! I am currently looking to change my employment and would like to start this on the weekend and see how it grows. I am a hardworking, trustworthy, pet lover that wants the best for you and your pet. I have a cat and dog that love each other very much. I have a friendly, gentle approach with my pets as I will have with yours.

About: I have been an animal lover since a young age, and have been caring for dogs since 2011. I have experience with both puppies and senior dogs, and all ages in between. I have experience in training my own dogs and in practicing commands as asked when puppy-sitting. I've even trained my cat to give high-fives! I also have experience in administering medication, both oral meds as well as eyedrops. Our 14 year old labradoodle gets eyedrops twice daily, which I administer. I bond easily with animals and love dogs and cats of all shapes and sizes! I love getting to know animals, and have a knack for bonding with anxious, shy animals. I am also okay with brushing and bathing, etc., as asked if needed. I am typically available all day on the weekends and most Tuesdays and Thursdays. I am in grad school for the next two years in Forest Grove and classes occur around 9am-4pm on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. I may have time for quick home visits for potty breaks during lunch on these days, if needed. I am happy to spend quiet time with pets who are more mellow, or to spend time playing or walking with energetic, younger dogs if that suits them best. I typically observe the dog's behavior and notes from the owner when deciding what to do- are they looking tired and calm? Are they a bit riled up and could use a playtime or a walk? I will follow any instructions left by the owners, as well. If there is anything specific or special you'd like me to do for your pets, just let me know!

About: I was a foster parent for Austin Pets Alive out of Texas for 13 years and through Laramie Peak/Oregon Humane Society for the past two years. I have experience with felines and canines of varying medical needs ranging from pills and suspensions to management of diabetes. I have a strong history and enjoy working with/training dogs from the most confident personalities through the intense pullers, overstim doggos, and reactive canines. I believe in respecting you and your animals’ boundaries and utilizing positive reinforcement only. I have open availability weekday afternoons and evenings as well as weekends. I love those early morning walks/visits as well as afternoons and evenings. If your baby is most comfortable being walked when other four legged friends aren’t around, I would love to help accommodate as I don’t hesitate coming at the wee hours or staying off the beaten path. Have a higher energy dog that likes to run and/or hike? I’m a runner and volunteer for the dog run team at Oregon Humane Society. When caring for your animal, everyone’s safety is of utmost importance! Share with me all the nuance of your baby’s personality and I’ll help them have the best and safest time! I am very mindful of my environment and respectful of other people’s and animals spaces.

“Punctual and quick to respond. Had a really good experience with Alyssa. She was willing to even come over before the walk to do an meet and greet with my dog. 10/10 recommend her”

About: I'm happy to help enforce skills they already know such as sit, down, stay, come, kennel, etc. I've trained Southeastern Guide Dogs before and can bring those skills to the table. I can figure out their good spots to scratch so that they'll enjoy being around me and trust me. I have also been around all different sizes and breeds of dogs, so please don't worry about size, breed, personality, or disabilities. I want to help give you the confidence of being a pet parent while still living your own life! I work from home part-time, so I have plenty of time to care for your fur baby(ies). I typically work mornings Tuesday-Friday, and have most afternoons and weekends available. I love giving cuddles to any animal who needs them. I will give them space if they need time to adjust, and I will patiently help them warm up to me. My hobbies include reading and crochet, so I will happily provide the company and comfort that your pet needs.

About: I’ve been a dog parent myself since I was 14. I have always loved helping family and friends take care of their pets. I raised my German shepherd from puppyhood, and more recently, I’ve been training my rescue dog, Thorn. I have experience working with puppies, reactive dogs, and dogs that need medication. Your dog’s needs will always come first! I just moved to the area and am searching for a permanent job, so I have plenty of daytime, weeknight, and weekend availability! I am not traveling over the holidays so I have availability to watch your pets if you’re traveling! In your home, I will make sure that your pets always have access to fresh water. I will feed them according to your schedule and any restrictions. I have experience working with dogs who have special needs, so I will be careful to follow any special directions or house rules. I will let them out to use the bathroom according to your schedule and/or as they indicate.

“Joseph did an incredible job with our two pups! One of our dogs is incredibly shy and anxious but Joseph was incredibly patient with him. We will be booking him again.”

About: Pets are my passion, I’m here to share my knowledge and experience to help you and your loved one(s). I’ve cared for more than dogs, cats, and rabbits. I’m happy to look after reptiles, birds and small animals as well. In addition to basic pet sitting needs, I’m also experienced with behavioral training, puppy basics, grooming and medicating. All animal care plans will be thoroughly created at meet and greet, I will not deviate from the plan so please include things like ~ how many treats per day, are any people foods ok to share (carrots, yogurt etc), the song we play in the morning to get out of bed - sometimes small requests seem silly but it’s part of your daily life and I understand how matching a routine makes your pet more comfortable. Please feel free to bring these up as well so they can be included. I’m openly available Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday with options for drop ins or walks throughout the rest of the week in the mornings or evenings. All of your house rules will be respected and followed of course. If your pup isn’t allowed on the sofa, we can snuggle on the floor. Do you have a super stealthy door - dashing cat? I currently live with one and know how important it is to closely monitor where the cat is when you’re going through the door.

“Katie was wonderful to work with. She was very responsive, kind, and attentive to Misha. Before the walk, she even agreed to meet Misha beforehand to make sure it was a good fit. And the pictures of them on a walk together in the sunshine was the cherry on top. Katie, you rock!”
