Dog Walking Portland

About: Animals have always been important to me, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with them. I have experience helping care for dogs by feeding, walking, playing, and making sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I’m dependable, calm, and willing to follow any instructions carefully to keep pets safe and happy. I’m currently a student, but I make time in my schedule for pet care throughout the week and on weekends. I’m dependable, organized, and willing to work with pet owners to make sure their pets get consistent care, attention, exercise, and companionship. I understand how important trust is when caring for someone’s pet. I’m attentive, responsible, and careful to follow feeding schedules, routines, and safety instructions so pets feel secure and comfortable while in my care.

“Emily helped us out taking care of our dog very last minute. We also appreciated her calm demeanor and flexibility. Our dog warmed up to her immediately.”

“Cathy did so well with our German Shepherd. He pulls us pretty hard on walks, but wasn’t an issue for Cathy. She was prompt and caring and very communicative. Would definitely request her services again!”

“Lisa is delightful and a great communicator. She is reliable and so good with my senior chihuahua mix, Mika. It is very comforting to know Lisa also has a senior chihuahua, and is very experienced with dog care. I am happy Mika seems to really enjoy her walks with Lisa and was able to get comfortable with her fast. Lisa takes her time and is in tune with Mika’s needs. I feel bad on days I have to leave Mika alone at home for so long for work, so it means the world to me that Lisa makes sure her time with Mika is quality bonding.”

I am a 24 hr pet nanny that strives to create a relaxed environment for your pet while also making sure they are physically and mentally stimulated. I observe and listen to your pets body language and always keep an open line of communication between me and your pet. I tailor their days by what I notice that they like given the materials or funds I am provided and sometimes I even give from my own. My goal everyday is to make your pet the happiest I can possibly make them no matter how silly the game. I watch the clients pet in their own home. I strive to follow my client’s pet’s routine as closely as humanly possible and look for ways I can add enrichment with my surroundings and available tools on me.

About: I had a golden retriever when i was little girl, and my love for dogs exploded! I have experience with young puppies to older dogs. Playing fetch and walking are my favorite activities to see doggie tails wagging! 😊 I currently work part time and go to college part time. I have plenty of time to take care of your loving fur babies and make them always feel at home! I cannot do pet sitting at home, but I am more than comfortable staying at your home and taking care of your furry animal! Safety comes first!

“Alex is friendly, kind, responsive, and responsible. He quickly got back to me about a last minute dog walk, and also handled our overly excited puppy with ease.”

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover who’s been around dogs for as long as I can remember. Caring for them has always been a natural part of my life, and I’d love the opportunity to help care for yours! Whether your pup needs a fun walk, a caring pet sitter while you’re away, or someone to spend quality time playing and keeping them company, I’m here to help. I understand that every dog has their own personality, energy level, and routine, and I’ll make sure they receive the love, attention, and care they deserve. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your furry family member. I’ll treat your dog like one of my own by providing plenty of exercise, affection, playtime, and updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I can’t wait to meet you and your best friend! Pet care fits perfectly into my routine because caring for animals has always been a part of my life. I plan my schedule to make sure every pet receives the attention, exercise, and care they need.

Since I have pets of my own, I understand how important routines are, and I’ll do my best to maintain your pet’s normal schedule so they feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I treat every pet as if they were my own. In a client’s home, I make it a priority to follow their pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, potty breaks, litter box cleaning, and any special care instructions. I know that keeping pets in their familiar routine helps them feel safe, comfortable, and less stressed while their family is away. When spending time with pets, I make sure they receive plenty of attention, affection, exercise, and enrichment based on their individual personality and energy level. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident that their pet is happy and well cared for.

I currently have a part time job where I work in the mornings. I am usually free after 3 and early mornings. I have plenty of free time now that it is summer. I have a fenced in yard where your dog can run. I have a dog friendly house where they can’t get in to anything that may hurt them. I can keep them company and provide toys as well.

“Thank you 😊”

About: I’m always the person at a gathering who is drawn to animals! I will love them as my own. I’ve had my dog for seven years and have pet sat for various friends and family members because I’ve made bonds with their animals as well! I am a teacher so I am currently on summer break! My schedule is pretty flexible in the next few months so I should be able to make anything work 😊 I am a HUGE animal lover! I treat my own pets as my babies and I am super attentive to their needs. Being a teacher has me in tune with that! I would feel honored for you to trust me with your pet’s care because I would want someone to do the same to mine. My boyfriend is a vet tech so that makes us a pretty good combo of pet knowledge!

“Nicholas communicated very well to me and gave updates about Milo. Highly recommend!”

About: Pet sitting isn’t just a job for me—it’s my heart. I’m a deeply compassionate, reliable sitter who treats every pet as if they were my own. I have extensive hands-on experience caring for cats and dogs of all personalities, with a special gift for anxious, shy, and senior pets who need extra patience and reassurance. I’m currently enrolled in animal behavior coursework, which helps me read body language, respect boundaries, and create a calm, stress-free environment for every animal in my care. Whether your pet is playful and energetic or prefers quiet companionship, I meet them exactly where they are. I’m attentive to routines, medications, feeding instructions, and subtle changes in behavior—and I communicate clearly so you always feel confident and at ease while you’re away. From cozy cuddle sessions to gentle play, enrichment, and structured walks, your pet’s comfort and safety always come first. Animals are my happy place, and it’s an honor to care for them 💗🐶🐱 I'm currently enrolled in The Animal Behavior Institute online. And my schedule is very flexible, as I can study my Carnivore behavior course anyplace there is Internet. I take my pet sitting job very seriously. It's my honor and responsibility to make sure all of your baby's needs are met. I follow any instructions and always double check locks, bring in the mail and take out garbage if needed. My priority is the safety and wellness of your precious baby. I always check in and give updates with photos!

About: I have owned and taken care of others’ dogs from a very young age, and have experience with most breeds of dogs. My passion is making your pet feel comfortable and happy during the time you are away, or during our walks. I am happy to administer medication, do special chores or anything else that needs to be done while you are not at home. I currently work part time, and schedule my own hours, so I am available for you based on what needs you have, with enough notice. I have one dog, Husky mix, and she is familiar with other dogs. We love to go on walks and trips to the dog park!

About: Hi! My name is Emma, I’m 25 years old and I have a lot of experience with almost every type of animal. Especially dogs! Ive worked as a groomer and counselor at Camp Bow Wow, a daycare and boarding facility for dogs. So I have experience with all age ranges and breeds of dogs. I also worked on an exotic farm that had lots of animals from bunnies and farm animals to baby kangaroos and macaws. I personally own a 6 and 3 year old cat, and a 10 year old border collie who’s very active, so I understand a dog that needs lots of excercise! I’ve also had pets like a leopard gecko, Guinea pigs, rats, and absolutely love birds! I work 9-4 Monday through Friday but I’m always up early. I could come check on your fur babies in the morning, then more quality and excercise/play time in the afternoon after work. My weekends are completely open. We are outside a lot! My border collie is 10 but he could still play all day! He is typically playing fetch, catching bubbles, or playing in the sprinkler while I work on the garden. They get fresh water, dry food throughout the day, and wet dinner at night so I understand routines and feeding times.
