Dog Walking Sexton Mountain

“Michelline took such good care of my girl (last minute) while I was having a busy work weekend. She walked her and gave her the cup of food I left and even brought my delivery box inside.”

About: I LOVE DOGS!! I've taken care of pets since I was 14 and love taking them on adventures or relaxing with them! I am a current college student who is home during breaks and weekends! I have a very flexible schedule and can accommodate your pets every need! As a full-time college student, I am currently restricted to my University schedule. I am available during Summer break: June 15th-September 25th, Winter break: December 13th-January 4th, and Spring break: March 21st-March 29th. I am currently residing with my parents during university breaks and, as such, am unable to provide in-home pet care at my own residence. However, I am available for dog walking, drop-in visits, and pet sitting at clients’ homes. To ensure a safe, trustworthy, and comfortable experience, I schedule a meet-and-greet with each client and their pet prior to the start of services. This allows us to discuss expectations, address any questions, and establish a solid foundation for care. I also encourage clients to review the Rover Community Guidelines so they are fully informed about the process and policies. Throughout the booking, I maintain clear and consistent communication! I provide updates and photos to keep clients informed about how their pet is doing. I know I love to receive updates on my puppy while I’m away! I also reach out if anything arises that requires their input. After the booking, I follow up to ensure that the care I provided met their expectations. My goal is always to deliver reliable, attentive, and high-quality care.

“Madison is AMAZING!! My dog Zelda is a stubborn girl and Madison won her over very quickly. She is a real trooper putting up with 5 AM rainy morning walks, yet she makes sure Zelda gets what she needs. Madison is delightful, communicative and truly responsible. I will hire her again! Thank you, Nadison!”

“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.”

About: I’m a huge animal lover and truly enjoy caring for pets of all personalities and needs. I’m very dependable and trustworthy, and I treat every animal with the same love and care I would give my own. I also make sure pets stay on their normal routines and always keep owners updated so they know their pet is happy and safe. This and Uber Eats are my full time jobs. I will only be gone for a couple hours in the evening for Uber Eats some days and Sunday early afternoons I have church but other than that I’m available. I am very attentive to pet’s needs and listen closely to the owner’s instructions. No matter how big or small your animal is, dog or cat, I have unlimited patience and care.

About: I have always loved animals. I grew up with dogs and cats of all different breeds, personalities, and sizes! Currently I do not live with any animals. However, I have years of experience helping my mother with our German Shepard, Pitbull mix, Golden Retriever, and our little Pug/Chihuahua mix. As a high school student I often did boarding at my home, as well as house sitting for others. Now post college graduation, I am looking to get back into animal care while I work on starting my professional career. I am currently working jobs that allow me to create my own schedule, so I have plenty of free time to spend playing with sweet fur babies! I have experience with both crating and free roaming animals. In my home, I always make sure to leave human food out of reach and have plenty of toys for animals to play with. I also enjoy taking daily walks, and would love to bring your animal along with me!

“Alexis has been so good with Wilson, my greyhound. She honored all of my requests for him as greyhounds can be quite a different sort of breed than others. Her sense of care for animals is exactly what I was looking for and I would recommend Alexis to anyone who needs someone to take care of their pooch☺️👍🏻🐾.”

About: I've been dog sitting for friends and family for over 7 years. I love dogs and love going on walks with them! I have experience with nervous dogs and higher energy dogs, I've dog-sat rescues, 1-year-olds with their bouncing off the walls, and seniors. I help my mom with in-home child care during the week from Monday to Thursday but I have free time outside of that. I usually can start the day by 7am but will start moving earlier if the dog needs it! I have a smaller fenced backyard with some dog neighbors. We have some guinea pigs in our home but they're upstairs in an elevated cage with a gate at the bottom of the stairs. The neighborhood has a variety of routes I can go on of different lengths to fit your dog's needs.

About: I’ve been a dog sitter for more than five years for other dogs and I have been a dog owner for 10 years! I’m patient and caring! I’ll be free to walk dogs all summer since I’m a teacher and have this summer off! Be happy to take care of your pet! I have a fenced yard. I have a clean home that’s welcoming to all! I am organized, patient, and kind. I care a lot about dogs!

“Jessica is great! Our pup loves her and she’s been punctual every time. This time I needed help last minute and she jumped right over to take out Sookie!”

About: I worked at a vet clinic for about two years, helping with restraint for exams and diagnostics. I took care of the boarding pets and administered medications. Additionally, I did about a year of clinical rotations working with animals. All this, not including my own pet experience with dogs, cats, hamsters, and a ferret. I am starting a new business and I will be working from home. I will have plenty of time to take care of furrr babies I have a large courtyard where our dogs can run around. My dog loves to play with other dogs. I also have room for crates if desired

“Shannon is great! She is obviously very experienced and confident. It’s been a struggle to find someone I can trust walking my two large dogs.”

“Andrea and Don were wonderful! They walked my dog Scout 3 days while we were out of town. My sister was staying with Scout but she is unable to walk him due to mobility issues. Andrea and Don came on time and walked Scout the amount of time we had requested. Couldn't be happier with how kind and considerate they are.”

“Taylor is fantastic! She handled our large, strong-willed Pitty like a pro and had her behaving better on the walk than she ever does with us. Our dog already loves Taylor and we are thrilled to have her services. Looking forward to having Taylor walk our girl again soon. Thanks Taylor!”

Jim M.

“I couldn’t be happier with our dog walker Mara. Communication was always clear, punctuality was excellent, and most importantly, my dog Gino was treated with care and affection. It’s obvious how experienced and attentive Mara is and it makes such a difference. I highly recommend her services to anyone looking for someone they can truly trust with their pet.”

About: I’m an undergraduate environmental science student at Portland State, currently on summer break. I recently worked as a student research technician, handling and tracking frogs and documenting their habitats. My family has had our fair share of dogs and cats over the years, which contributed to my love for animals and the outdoors. I’ve cared for the pets and houses of friends and family since 2023, checking in throughout the day to provide meals and quality playtime. --- I enjoy figuring out how to build a true connection with animals, some more unique than others. My family has two cats with very distinct personalities: Evy, our affectionate 13 year old, and Sophie, our 2 year old feisty tortie. We rescued Sophie as a 3 week old kitten, and she began experiencing seizures at just 9 weeks old. This was a scary and confusing time, involving many emergency vet visits. She is now healthy and happy, on a strict schedule requiring medicine by mouth every 12 hours. Each pet I’ve been lucky to have has taught me something, and I’ve had to learn from her the most. She is a high maintenance kitty who doesn’t like pets. She shows her affection in unconventional ways, and I wouldn’t have it any other way :-) Please message me if you're curious about booking me on a date I have marked as unavailable. Though I've marked weekdays starting in late September as unavailable for the time being due to classes starting, I may still be able to provide services. Otherwise, I'm on summer break so my schedule is quite open. I'm able to spend quality time with your pet(s) and can work with you to figure out a schedule that works best for them. I'm available for walks, overnight stays, and/or check-ins throughout the day depending on their needs. I'm most compatible with pets who can be left alone for 4-8 hours, as I have personal responsibilities and may need to walk a dog or check in with someone else's pets (or my own!). --- My current nightly rates are intended for 12 hour care (ex: 6 PM to 6 AM, 8 PM to 8 AM, etc.) and 2-4 drop in visits throughout the day, depending on your need and my availability. Please feel free to message me if you have questions, concerns, or if your pet requires more intensive or constant care. I'll do my best make it work! I'd love to meet with you first and get to know your furry family to see if I'm a good fit for them. I enjoyed walking my dog 2-3 times per day in the neighborhood or on local nature park trails. When caring for others' pets in the past, I'd typically check in 2-3 times a day to feed, play, and relax with them, watering plants as needed. While most have been considered low maintenance, I've gained much more intensive experience with my special needs cat Sophie. --- I appreciate schedules and/or written instructions so I can better adapt to your pet's needs, especially if they require medications or atypical care.

“Corey has been nothing but outstanding since our meet & greet. Always timely, communicates well Reno just loves Corey Starts waiting an hour before the walk time. Cannot say enough positive about Corey Thank you for being you Scott & Amy”

About: I grew up with five dogs from small to large. And now I love the crap out of dogs. I'm known as the dog whisperer at the dog parks. Definitely will have lots of cuddles, chases around the house, and lots of dogs to play and socialize with. At home, the dogs will have the run of the home. And my dog will leave them alone. I generally have other dogs that get along well. I have a small fenced yard so they have free access to potty in the backyard as I leave the door open. I work from home and have a flexible schedule. Generally I'll take the dogs on at least one 1.5mile jog per day. And then whatever rough housing they get into around the house Animals have free roam of the house. I have a fenced yard although it's small there is a doggy door so they can get in and out.

About: I have loved animals my entire life. I grew up with Samoyeds (fluffy white sled dogs) and was so happy when I was able to get one of my own 13 years ago, and since then I have also adopted a Heeler mix. My dogs are members of my family, and I will treat your pets the same way. I love taking dogs out to all the amazing parks and trails in the area. And when I am home or doing a drop-in, I'm happy to play and keep your pets company while you are away, as well as make sure they are fed and have enough water. If there are any special needs or requests, please just let me know. I can't wait to meet you and your pets!

“Elizabeth was great My 🐕‍🦺 was calm and appeared well walker when I came home for work, I appreciate the updates and photos if there day. Would definitely recommend Elizabeth for you pet caring needs”
