Dog Walkers in Ostrander, WA

About: My saying is always “your pets are my pets” because I do truly believe all critters deserve the same amount of love, respect and compassion I grew up on a horse boarding ranch so I’ve taken care of ALL types of animals throughout my life.(: I work 4 1/2 days a week and would love to spend my days off helping others by taking care of their pets while they are away. I have a fully fenced yard and live a very active lifestyle so if your pet needs extra exercise, I would love to take them for walks, runs, hikes or just playing fetch in the backyard!

“I cannot recommend Joyce more! She was able to accommodate my last minute dog walking request after a family emergency. She is fantastic and I will definitely continue to ask Joyce back for all of my dog and cat services!”

About: I love animals. I'm willing to listen and do exactly as you say regarding the care of your baby. You know exactly what your baby needs. Waking up and having coffee with my roommate's fur baby is the best part of my day. And boy does she let you know if I'm unable to have coffee with her. Helping one of my elderly good friends with her cat and dog means the world to me. She gets to keep her animals in the home and I get to spend time with more animals.

About: Hey there fury friends and owners! I'm Bailey and I love animals, I have car, dog, bird and farm animal experience. I would love to help youtake care of yours. I'm so looking forward to hearing from you soon. Thanks for stopping by my page. My availability currently is pretty open. I’m available part-time on a weekly service-perhaps every couple days if needed. It all depends on the location and services needed. I’m unsure how many pets I’m willing to take on at the moment. I can’t help but speak to an animal in high pitch tones as well as full on conversation with them like they’re answering me! Anything to get a head twist or a butt wiggle.

“Very helpful and responsive! Sent me a nice update on my pups after their walk.”

About: I have experience with foster care for dogs, dog walking and dog care! I have my own dog who loves dog buddies if your dog is down for a play mate! I am working part time so I can accommodate my schedule for the needs of your pet! This can include weekdays, weekends and nights as well. I live in a neighborhood with lots of hills and space which can offer lots of exercise for your dog. I also am willing to bring my dog along if you would like your pup to get play time!

“Kathryn did an amazing job with my energetic, reactive dog. She kept everyone safe, and even helped work on some skills to help her be less reactive! She really loves animals, and really knows her stuff. I highly recommend her!”

About: I've had all kinds of animals my entire life, and now working on teaching the importance of responsibility and love for our four-legged fur friends to my own little boy! Looking for a way to connect with my community and help with those who need their fur babies! I do have a full time job, but am available early mornings before 11 AM and can be available after 4 pm on most weekdays! Weekends are flexible throughout the day with notice! The best place for a pup is their home! I can ensure that your dog's space will stay tidy and fresh! I think it's so important that each animal has a comfortable, safe and seperate place to lay, to eat, to play and to do their business!

About: I have loved cat and dogs since I was 5, I have taken care of them since I was about 6. I love animals and want to make sure that they feel loved and safe when I am with them. Though I am a full time student in college, I am able to take care of animals as often as needed. Your fur baby is my priority. I have 3 cats in my home. One is very child-like (loves to be held like an infant), another wants you to play toss-the-toy as often as possible, and another is food-obsessed. All are indoors. I give them all love when they ask for it. They are fed twice a day. Litter boxes are changed every other day. I used to have a pupper, but she passed away back in 2020. I fed her special cancer-fighting foods (safe for dogs) daily, took her on walks/daily outings, provided lots of fetch/toy time, and maintained daily fur/skin care routines. Your baby is safe with me; they will be well-loved and looked after!

“Ian was fantastic! He was prompt, polite, and great with the dogs. He was also flexible with minor time changes when requested.”

“Hannah is very reliable and accommodating of our crew’s individual needs. I really appreciate her communication and consistency! It’s so hard to find people you can trust with your animals, but Hannah is definitely one of the good ones!”

About: My friends and family have come to me over the years to assist with problem behaviors and care for their pets. I have 3 dogs of my own that are apart of my family, they are 2 pugs and a Newfoundland so I have years of personal experience working with small and large dogs. I hope you choose me to assist with the care of your furry loved one, and become someone you can trust to enhance your animals life and give the care that our animals deserve. I have a lot of experience working with my own dogs and in a kennel that requires 24/7 care. I provide daily exercise and care for my 3 dogs. I can provide care by providing activities of physical and mental exercises inside and outside the home to basic care of feeding and letting out to go to the bathroom. I am experienced with walking and training dogs, and I also love to just hang out with an animal for their entertainment (if you find yourself talking to your pet like a human then I’m the perfect person for you - I’m pretty sure my pups can understand everything I say to them & they talk back in their own way). I have dealt with animals who eat anything that’s up for grabs to a very specific diet. I understand the importance of routine for our animals and will respect what you need for your pet. For special care - If you need to make a very detailed list I would love for you to share with me and know it will be followed. I am comfortable and familiar with oral medications from puppies/dogs at the rescue I worked at and dogs of my own. My pugs are higher maintenance so I am familiar with medications administered by mouth, ears, and eyes. I also love to brush and maintain animals fur/coats, it is really a good way to bond if your animal is comfortable with it. I am currently going through a grooming course, and I have experience of my own from my personal dogs and working with puppies/dogs at the rescue. This includes working with animals that do not like or are new to grooming. I am mainly experienced with simple brushing and bathing, so I will stick to that level for now and I hope to be a groomer in the future once I’ve gone through my course and gained experience. You don’t have to worry about coming home to a fresh bob cut on your pet, luckily I have dogs of my own to practice on for now! If you would like me to brush out your dog and bathe them then let me know!

“Mikki was great with our pup! It felt good knowing our baby was in good hands, and being taken on nice long walks. She was also very kind to our kitten. She even went above and beyond and cleaned up after our pup had an accident, when we never required it of her. Will definitely be using her services again ?”

“Erin is very professional and has excellent communication skills. She truly cares for animals and it shows in how she conducts business. I highly recommend Erin and will use her services anytime.”

About: ** vaccinated** I have always grown up with dogs! We used to foster shelter dogs when I was younger. My family and I would have to leash train, potty train, social train and live train these dogs. I love watching a pup turn into something cuddly and loving. I walk everyday since I work from home now and I do not currently own a dog as I live in an apartment. I thought this would be the best of both worlds for me and for you! I hike every Saturday and if you would like your pet to join on a scenic car ride and go on a nice nature walk, I’d be more than happy! All animals no matter what, breed, what disability, or anything under a negative belt deserve love and affection and to be treated properly and have all needs taken care of. They can’t speak so let’s speak for them and treat them nicely and give them the outside life plus also the inside love. Cuddles, back scratches, treats, anything that shows affection to our animals is how I go about my day today.

“Amazing with animals! My dog is very hesitant with new people and shy, but Kate helped her work around this and they had a great walk together. Will book again!”

About: I have adored and cared for dogs ever since I was a young girl. Friends and family members have relied on me to feed, bathe, walk, and love on their pets. I am currently doing freelance work in the PDX area. My schedule is open and flexible to accommodate your pet care needs. On weekdays my dog, Chorizo and I spend two hours at the dog in the A.M. or go on a long hike. I’d love to bring your pup along! I currently have a large fenced backyard and a 1 year old Blue Heeler who will keep your pup energized and engaged! Our home is full of treats, puzzles, and activities that will make any dog smile.

About: I am an experienced caregiver of pets. In my family is Otis the dog, cats Earl and Sarah, a Galah Cockatoo named Warren and Henry and Marty McFly the budgies. Otis gets along with both dogs and cats and loves to have a buddy to romp with in the yard. I have met some of the most wonderful caregivers here on Rover who helped when I’ve needed to go out of town and would love to help other pet parents when they need to be away for a time. I will provide photos and keep you updated for your peace of mind. I work part-time night shift. My schedule varies but I have lots of availability for feathered and furry friends. Please feel free to check with me about your pet care needs. I have a fenced yard and can provide supervised outdoor playtime or cuddling on the couch. Our dog Otis loves company and to have playmates visit. He gets along really well with other dogs and with cats.

About: I've taken care of all types of animals since I was a small child. I've always had a dog/dogs. More recently have developed a love for cats as well! I've often been in charge of house-sitting for family to take care of their pets when they're out of town or just stopping in to feed them and let them out. I am currently working 3 days a week while I finish my Software Engineering degree so I'm available all Wednesdays/Fridays/Saturdays/Sundays. I also live right by an excellent dog walking area along the river. I live at the end of a pretty secluded driveway with a dog who loves meeting new friends! I can also provide a crate as a safe quiet space if needed.

“Emily.first great impression! Direct, confident, and quite obviously, thank goodness knows her stuff.”
