Dog Sitting Portland

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is the personalized care and attention I give to every dog as if they were my own. Whether your pup is a playful puppy still learning the ropes or a senior dog needing extra love and patience, I’ve got the experience and heart to meet their unique needs. 🐶 Special Skills: Experienced in basic puppy training, crate acclimation, and potty routines Gentle, attentive care for senior dogs — including medication reminders, slow walks, and extra cuddles Comfortable with dogs of all sizes and energy levels Can administer oral medications and special diets Daily updates and photos so you feel connected every step of the way! Your dog’s safety, happiness, and routine are my top priorities. Whether it’s a weekend getaway or a long work trip, you can rest easy knowing your best friend is in caring, capable hands. Let’s set up a meet-and-greet — I’d love to get to know you and your furry family member! 🐕💛 Pet care is a natural and joyful part of my daily routine — not an add-on, but something I genuinely look forward to. I structure my day around the needs of the pets I care for, whether that means early morning potty breaks, mid-day walks, or calm evening cuddle time. I plan my schedule to make sure each dog gets consistent attention, exercise, and companionship. I work from home (or have a flexible schedule), which allows me to give pets the time, patience, and presence they need — especially important for puppies who need structure or senior dogs who need a gentle pace. Caring for pets isn’t just something I do — it’s part of who I am. I prioritize their well-being as I would a family member’s, and I’m always tuned in to changes in behavior, mood, or energy that might need a little extra attention. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, my top priorities are safety, comfort, and keeping their routine as close to normal as possible. 🐾 In My Home: I create a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment with plenty of cozy spaces for naps, indoor play, and supervised outdoor time (if applicable). I only take a limited number of pets at a time to ensure each one gets personal attention. I follow your feeding and potty schedule, administer any needed meds, and send daily updates with photos so you know your pet is happy and relaxed. 🐾 In Your Home: I treat your home with the same respect and care I give to your pet. I keep things tidy, stick to your dog’s normal routine — walks, feeding, bedtime rituals — and make sure your pet feels safe in their familiar surroundings. I can also bring in mail, water plants, or do other light tasks while you're away. Every pet is different, so I always ask detailed questions before a booking to learn their habits, quirks, and what makes them feel safe and loved.

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my lifelong experience and genuine love for animals. I’ve had multiple dogs and cats my whole life, so caring for pets has always been a natural part of who I am. I understand that every pet has a unique personality, and I’m patient, attentive, and responsive to their individual needs. I’m comfortable caring for puppies who need extra attention, consistency, and basic training reinforcement, as well as senior pets who may require a slower pace, medication reminders, or gentle care. I’m very observant and make sure pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. Now that I’m away at college, I truly miss having animals around, so pet sitting is something that brings me joy in the meantime. I have a big heart for animals, and I treat every pet like they’re my own. 🐾💛 Pet care fits easily into my daily and weekly routine because I intentionally plan my schedule around the pets I’m caring for. As a college student, I have structured class times, which allows me to create consistent morning, afternoon, and evening check-ins for walks, feeding, playtime, and any special care needs. I’m used to building my day around animals since I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life. Whether it’s early morning walks, mid-day potty breaks, or evening cuddle time, I make sure pets receive attention, exercise, and companionship throughout the day. On weekends, I typically have even more flexibility, which allows for longer walks or extra playtime. Caring for pets isn’t something I squeeze in — it’s something I prioritize because I truly enjoy it. 🐾💛 When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, my top priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved in their environment. I carefully follow the owner’s instructions regarding feeding schedules, portion sizes, medications, exercise routines, and any specific behavioral needs. In a client’s home, I respect their space and keep everything clean and organized. I make sure pets stay on their normal routine to reduce stress while their owner is away. This includes walks, playtime, enrichment activities, and plenty of attention and affection. I also provide updates and photos so owners feel reassured. If caring for pets in my home, I create a calm, pet-friendly environment with close supervision. I ensure they have a safe space to rest, regular potty breaks, structured playtime, and lots of companionship. Because I’ve had multiple dogs and cats my whole life, I’m very attentive to body language and behavior changes, especially for puppies or senior pets who may need extra care. I treat every pet like they’re my own and always aim to provide consistent, loving, and responsible care. 🐾💛

“Lily was amazing!! She took great care of my dog and sent many cute photos throughout the visit!! She also was able to accommodate a late request.”

About: Growing up, my household always had pets. I had a wide range of dog breeds from a Rottweiler to a Yorkie. In addition to my love and experience with dogs, I would take care of a multiple cat household through the years. I have a huge soft spot for animals and would love to help take care of yours. I am currently a full-time student so pet care fits in well with my schedule. I am able to commit to these pets in between my class schedule. I care for pets by first fulfilling any and all requests and instructions left by a pet owner. No one knows a pet better than their owner! Second, I learn to read a pet and what signals I can pick up through their habits and actions.

“This is my first time using Rover. I was so skeptical at first but Madalyn is amazing! Django my doberman loved her and she gave me so many cute updates! I will definitely be using her again if needed.”

About: I have 8 years of pet care experience, I provide dependable, loving, and personalized care for every pet I look after. What sets me apart from other sitters is my patience, attention to detail, and ability to understand each pet’s unique personality and needs. I have a special skill and passion for caring for senior pets, including those who need extra patience, gentle handling, medication reminders, slower walks, or additional attention throughout the day. I treat every pet as if they were my own and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for while their family is away. 🐾 Hi! I’m an 18-year-old college student who loves animals and would love to help take care of your pets while working around my school schedule. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and overnight sitting for families who need someone dependable to check in on their pets. Whether your dog needs a walk, potty break, feeding, playtime, or just some company while you’re away, I’ll make sure they’re cared for and comfortable! I know how important it is to trust the person taking care of your pet, so I’ll always follow your instructions closely and keep you updated. I’ll be happy to send pictures and updates during every visit so you know exactly how your pet is doing. I’m comfortable with dogs of different sizes and personalities. I’d love the opportunity to meet your pet! 🐾💞 I have a fenced yard. I have a 10 week old puppy and an 8 year old cat to keep your pet company. I do also have a trail near my house if your pet needs runs and/or walks. ☺️

“Morgan was great with my dogs who had never been left with a sitter before that they didn’t know. She was patient and kind until the pups came around.”

About: I have owned dogs for 12+ years now and just LOVE animals. Some of my own pets have had medical issues (seizures, blindness, heart issues) so I am very familiar with how to care with not only healthy pets but ones with medical needs as well. We have fostered puppies for a local rescue, so we are also familiar with how to handle the hyper activity of a new family member. I have a full time job, but we do come home during lunch to check on our babies and take them out to potty. We are usually home all evening so your fur baby will not be alone after we get out of work. If you are looking into my dog walking services, that can be completed right after work, for however long you need the services. I have a fully fenced yard and my dogs are never left outside unattended. My wife and I care deeply about our own dogs and would put the same care and love into your dogs as well. Our dogs are not crate trained and are allowed to roam the house during the day, but we could crate your dog if that is what you prefer.

“She managed to make friends with my very shy dog, which was super impressive. she was also willing to do a last minute holiday booking. Will request her again.”

About: I like to give the dogs I care for all the attention they want and need. I am very active myself and can be relied on to run your dog in a safe manner.

About: Every pet loves a good routine, and I’m here to make sure they get the exercise, care, and attention they crave while you’re away. I aim to keep your animal happy and stimulated, whether they have the long legs of a Weimaraner or the short strides of a Dachshund or Chihuahua. My background in Biology and personal experience caring for a diabetic pet mean I’m fully confident handling complex routines—from insulin injections and vitamin dosing to puppy pad changes, litter box maintenance, and bathing, combing and skin treatment. Big, small, furry, or scaly, your pets receive meticulous, loving care tailored directly to their needs. I am available for early morning visits every day between 7-8:30, afternoons and evenings (between 12-2 Tuesdays and Wednesdays) and evening visits everyday 5:30-10. Some days I can also visit at 4 pm. When entering a client’s home, I prioritize safety, security, and a calm arrival using your provided key or access code. I make a point to enter quietly without disturbing your space, and I immediately do a quick sweep of the home to check for potential hazards—like open doors, unlatched gates, or forgotten appliances like an oven left on. When interacting with your pets, I always let them approach me at their own pace. I rely on positive reinforcement and never force an animal into an interaction or activity they aren't comfortable with. After every visit or walk, I send a full update text with photos so you know how everything went. If anything ever seems off with your pet or your home, I’ll reach out right away via text or phone call so you’re always fully in the loop.

“Amber was awesome! She sent us pictures, played with him, brushed him and administered medicine. Our dog was so happy and we will definitely use her again.”

About: I absolutely love animals so dearly I’m great with young and hyper dogs or cats I am a cat mom to the most beautiful girl I would like to try to do pet care daily or if not than many times a week, I’m always down for going on a walk especially with a fur friend!! If I were to care for pets in my own home,I would make sure we have space to play and I do have a backyard that’s fenced , they will get lots of love:)

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every breed since I was 11 years old. I have a family full of animal lovers, and we won’t hesitate to care for any animal that needs it, from puppies, to senior dogs, to bearded dragons, and more! I have experience in every area of care and you can put your full trust in me to ensure your fur babies are safe when you aren’t home. I am currently unemployed and working towards becoming a flight attendant so I have all of the time in the world! Your dog will have my full attention. I have a fenced in yard and 2 male dogs who love to play, as well as our neighbors dog who comes over for play dates very often.

About: I am a 30 year old stay at home mom of one and dog mom of four. We love to play in our large fenced yard. We would love to have your furbabies over for a fun day of playing and rest. Our fur family includes 6 year old miniature dachshund siblings, Cami and Cooper, ten year old, great pyrenees Boomer, and eleven year old dachshund- mix Oliver. We typically start off our day outside chasing squirrels, chewing sticks, and playing fetch. Then we have our morning treat. After treat time we make sure to take a potty break followed by a nap on the couch. Boomer loves to sneak off to the bedrooms and get back in the bed for an afternoon snooze. The rest of the afternoon we play inside with all of our toys and bones before going outside to play some more. Around 7 o'clock every night we eat dinner, take our last potty break and get in the bed with mom and dad.

About: I’ve grown up around dogs and currently own a miniature schnauzer, so I understand the daily care, attention, and love they need. I also have experience pet sitting for others, caring for dogs of different sizes and personalities. I’m comfortable with walks, feeding routines, playtime, and making sure your dog feels safe and happy while you’re away. I’m currently attending school online, which allows me to be home full-time and provide consistent care and attention for your pets. Because of this, I have very open and flexible availability throughout the week, including weekdays, weekends, and holidays. Your pet will never be left alone and will receive complete supervision, playtime, and care during their stay. I provide a safe, comfortable, and loving environment for every pet in my care. In my home, I have a fully fenced yard where dogs can play and get exercise, as well as a friendly, well-socialized dog who enjoys having company. I always supervise interactions to make sure everyone stays safe and happy. I stick closely to each pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, and playtime. If your dog is crate-trained or you prefer they be crated at certain times, I’m more than happy to accommodate that. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make sure to follow all instructions carefully to keep your pet comfortable in their familiar environment. My goal is to provide dependable, attentive care so both you and your pet feel completely at ease.

“Very sweet young lady who caught on quickly to the special instructions for feeding our 5 dogs.”

I would be available to take your pets to dog parks if you would like and would love to give them the attention they need. I have owned reptiles and other small pets so I’m prepared for most pets and enjoy taking care of them all. As a long-time pet owner I know just how important it is to have peace of mind and reassurance when you are away from your pet(s). I work part-time so i will more often be available in the evenings. Saturdays I will be available at any time. Willing to negotiate times/days as well. Currently I have an open schedule with flexible and negotiable availability. I prefer to keep bookings earlier in the day but I am always willing to make exceptions.
