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.

“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.”

Are you looking for affordable premium pet care? How does 24 hr service for the base price $4.16 an hour sound? Does your pet need to have access to a person for comfort at all times? Would receiving very frequent updates so you can see the condition of your pet make your time away from your pet less worrisome? If this sounds like your situation, I would be honored to alleviate your worries. (P.s. if you are booking for a pet that is not a cat or a dog. All animals other than dogs are booked as a cat.) My name is Makayla Trueblood. I am 24 years old and I have always been passionate about animal care. I am a 24 hour full service pet nanny and I would be honored to keep your pet company and do my best to make them the happiest I can. Pet nannying is my full time career and my passion.

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.

“This was our first time working with Kitt. We found her very personable. She asked good questions. We enjoyed meeting her and look forward to working with her again soon.”

“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.”

Caroline S.

“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!”

Friends and family have trusted me for decades to walk, feed, and love their pets as if they were my own. I have extensive experience with rescue and senior animals, understanding the patience and special care they often need. What sets me apart from other pet sitters is my lifetime of dedication, calm demeanor, and deep compassion for animals of all ages and backgrounds.

Pet care easily fits into my daily and weekly routine, and I’m available most weekdays and weekends for visits, walks, or check-ins. I’m happy to help keep your pets happy and cared for whenever you need support. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are my top priorities.

“Anthony is honestly the best. He has been walking them for a couple months now and they LOVE IT. He is so happy to see them and is very particular and diligent about reporting on cards and making sure they have a great (and tiring) time. I am SO GLAD I found him and will definitely continue using his services.”

Elizabeth G.

“Sophia was very professional and had great time management! She did such a good job with our dog and went above and beyond to make sure our girl was happy! We would definitely recommend her and will use her again!”

My apartment offers safe side walks and a lot of grass and wooded areas around for lots of fun walking options. My apartment also has a gated dog park that often is empty that I like to bring dogs to so they can run around and be free safely.

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 welcome pets of all shapes, sizes, and species with open arms and warm hearts! Whether your beloved companion has fur, scales, feathers, or none at all, they'll receive the same love, attention, and expert care. With over 30 years of experience in caring for animals, including fish, reptiles, small mammals, and of course, cats and dogs, I have honed my skills to ensure the well-being of every furry or non-furry family member. From dealing with anxiety and nervousness to providing specialized care for seniors and those nearing the end of life, I've seen it all and am here to support you and your pet every step of the way. My own family includes three English Springer Spaniels, two of them are 2 year old littermates and one 3 year old. They bring us endless joy and companionship. I can't wait to extend that same love and care to your furry (or fur-less) baby. As a new member of Rover, I'm eager to establish strong connections with my clients and provide consistent, quality care for your beloved pets. While I am still building up my reviews on the platform, I can offer references for you to contact and would be delighted to meet for an interview before scheduling care. I am very excited to meet you and your cherished pet soon!

My full-time commitment means I’m always available to give your pet the attention, love, and care they deserve. Whether it’s a daily visit or occasional drop-ins, your pet’s happiness and well-being are my top priorities. I recognize the paramount importance of vigilant supervision when caring for your cherished pets. Just as I do with my own, I promise to provide your furry companions with the same level of attentive care and watchful eye.

When supervising in clients' homes or properties, rest assured that I'll maintain a keen focus on your pets' well-being, ensuring they feel comfortable and content in their familiar environment. Your pets' safety and happiness are my top priorities. With my commitment to careful supervision, you can trust that your furry friends are in caring and capable hands.

Instead, I provide pet sitting in your home, ensuring your pet remains comfortable and less anxious in your absence. Your pet's well-being and your peace of mind are my top priorities. Let's create a happy and stress-free experience for your furry friend!

About: From growing up in a pet loving home where there were always dogs running around, to having professional experience of pet sitting through college, I promise to always take care of your pets like they’re my own! Plus, I love enjoying the outside by taking walks, so why not add a sweet dog to care for along with me? It’s a win win for both of us! :) I have a very flexible schedule right now, so I am able to drop by multiple times a day and/or walk dogs while you are at work during business hours. I am more than happy to accommodate whatever needs your pet(s) have - whether that is crating them back up when I leave or making sure they have plenty food and water. I am a very respectful, tidy, and reliable person and promise to treat your home and your fur babies the same way!

About: For the past 12 years I have been taking care of my oldest dog Trilly and for the last year have been taking care of my dog Dash. Within the last 12 years I have owned a few fish, a few hermit crabs, a bunny, a few guinea pigs, as well as a hamster. I am a graduate and don't have a part/full time job as of right now so I am able to make plenty of time to care for pets. I have two protective dogs which would not let me allow other animals into my home but I am happy to walk and or go to a pets home to take care of them.

About: Hii! I’ve grown up with many different animals; including rabbits, birds, cats, dogs, ect. I am an animal lover, but having my own isn’t an option for me right now. I’d love to take care and make your pet happy. I’d treat them as if they were my own babies. I currently work full-time and am a college student, however I have a flexible work schedule and enjoy spending extra time with animals. I’d love to spend some of my free time taking care of your fur babies. I’m open to any ideas, but I’d love most to drop by or even walk your pet. I’d love to come to your own home where your pet is already comfortable. I do live in an apartment so my home isn’t an option unless well planned ahead of time. I do have family that lives on a lake and have no problem taking your pet there and spending time there with him/her. It’s a lot of land on acres for any dog to play😊

About: I have had dogs my entire life and caring for them has always been a big part of who I am. I currently work at a doggy daycare, where I spend my days supervising, playing with, and caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. This experience has given me strong skills in understanding dog behavior, maintaining safe group environments, and making sure every dog feels comfortable and cared for. I have experience with dogs of all ages, training levels, abilities, and dietary needs. I’m comfortable caring for high-energy puppies, senior dogs who need a gentler pace, and everything in between. Working in daycare has also taught me how to read body language, manage different temperaments, and provide individualized attention to each dog. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, loved, and happy while giving owners peace of mind that their dog is in good hands. I treat every dog like they are my own and truly enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality. 🐾 Pet care fits naturally into my routine. I currently work part-time and am an MSU senior and have a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate time and attention to the pets I care for. I’m available for visits, walks, and sitting during weekdays after work and have more open availability on weekends. Since I already spend much of my time around animals through my job, caring for pets is something I truly enjoy and easily incorporate into my day. Safety and comfort are my top priorities when caring for pets. I always take time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any specific needs they may have so I can provide consistent and attentive care. In a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise, and house rules. I pay close attention to animal behavior and make sure pets are always in a safe and calm environment. My goal is to make pets feel relaxed and cared for while giving owners peace of mind that their pet is in good hands.
