Dog Walkers in Shady Dell, OR

“Ashley is wonderful! We’ve hired her to walk our two small pups midday M-F on a long term basis and we’re SO happy that we found her. She’s very communicative, kind, thoughtful and so very loving to our pups. It gives us great peace of mind knowing that our little ones are getting love and attention, exercise, fresh air, treats, play time and tummy rubs while we’re away. We highly recommend her. Thank you Ashley!!”

“Cynthia responded quickly to a last minute request for a weeklong daily commitment! And did a great job walking Joy (I can only assume, no complaints from the doggy)”

About: Since I could open my eyes, there has been a dog in front of them. Growing up, my family bred and raised AKC yellow labs. I also worked for a horse/dog breeder, helping take care and market Aussie puppies. I also have experience with senior dogs. My senior lab lost all function in his hind end towards the end of his life and I was his primary care giver. Senior care was the hardest and most fulfilling job I’ve had. I am currently in school to become a veterinary technician and I have been working in a clinic setting for almost a year now. I am taking a break from the clinic to focus on school and enjoy my summer. Send your furry friends my way!❤️🐾 I’m doing some other little side jobs but I am free otherwise. I have school that I need to attend to daily. I was working at a veterinary clinic but I am now taking a break to focus on school and enjoy the summer. I am also offering nail trims for an extra charge ;) I have two dogs at my house that are not friendly to other dogs. This means that I will be strictly keeping dogs at owners houses, streets, towns, etc. and there will be no chance of interaction between my dogs and any other dogs ☺️

About: I've watched dogs and cats for years and really enjoy it. I've always bonded and taken care of animals since I was a little boy. I work remotely and from home for the majority of the week. I have a lot of free time throughout the day as well as evenings. I care for all pets as if they're my own. I provide undivided attention and meet the needs that are presented to me on each occasion.

“Heather is wonderful! My dog loves Heather and enjoyed his time with her!”

About: I have been a pet caretaker and have grown up with dogs, cats, birds, chickens, and also have a pet pig! My kids are grown and off in the adult world! With more time on my hands these days I would love to share it with your pet besties! I am home full time and have the flexibility to take care of your loved ones through out the day and give your pets attention while you are busy! For boarding, I have a fenced back yard and live in a quiet safe neighborhood in Canby. There is a wonderful trail for long walks with dogs as well. Play time and a schedule for eating, play, rest, and walks is always the goal to follow.

“Thanks!”

“Alyssa did a fantastic job with my needy puppy! I highly recommend her and I would absolutely book her again. She sent photos and messages to update me and even called once when my puppy wasn’t feeling well.”

About: I grew up having dogs and cats as pets throughout my childhood. I've had some formal training and experience volunteering at the Oregon Humane Society as a Dog Walker / Kennel Buddy as well as 8 months of full-time professional pet care experience working with a local company based out of the Sellwood-Moreland neighborhood. I've been a reliable and consistent pet sitter for friends both short-term and extended stays. Many compliments have been given about how clean their home is when they come back from their trip! It is an honor being chosen to take care of and loving your pets as much as possible! If I am staying overnight, I make sure to devote as much of my free time to being present and actively engaged with your pets according their specific needs. I do have a part-time job in which I work a couple of 8 hour shifts per week, but because it is a flexible schedule, I have the choice to schedule my days to fit around the needs of your pet(s). I believe in leaving your living space at least as clean or cleaner than I found it. I understand how huge a responsibility it is to take care of not only someone else's pets, but their home as well. If any issues arise, I notify you soon as possible. I love sending updates as much as you need - especially snapping album worthy photos and video clips so that you feel safe knowing how well loved and taken care of your pets are!

About: I offer a calm, structured, and playful home led by a well-trained German Shepherd. I have experience with puppy training, senior dog care, and managing multi-dog households. Your dog will be safe, engaged, and treated like family here. Pet care fits perfectly into my daily routine! I work from home, so your pet will get constant attention, love, and supervision throughout the day. My responsible teenagers also help, making sure there’s always someone to play with, snuggle, or take your pup for a walk. We have a park with beautiful trails right behind our house, so your dog will enjoy frequent walks and outdoor time. We’ll also send you regular photo updates so you can see how happy and loved they are while you’re away! In our home, your pet becomes part of the family! With me working from home and a few caring teens around, your dog will get nonstop attention, affection, and supervision. I keep a calm, clean, and fun environment with plenty of playtime, cuddles, and exercise. The park and trails right behind our house make daily walks and fresh air a natural part of the routine. I tailor care to each pet’s needs, whether it’s puppy energy or senior comfort and send regular photo updates so you feel confident they’re in the best hands possible.

About: I have taken care of all kinds of pets since I was a child. I have experience giving oral medicine as well as shots. I will consistently walk, play, feed them as well as take care of any pet as if it were my own. :) I am currently working part time but am open to nearly any time as I can work around that schedule to fit you and your pups needs. I have a fenced yard and my friendly pup will help entertain. Can kennel if wanted or keep my pup to his room, otherwise the fur barbies will be outside playing or inside with me and my fiance.

About: My name is Alexandria, or Alex. I currently work full time at a animal hospital as a vet assistant. In the past I have worked for the Forest Service and Bureau of Land Management. I am a HUGE animal lover and would love to spend more time walking/pet sitting animals. I also have my license and a car. I enjoy spending time outdoors and am a natural resources + forestry graduate so I have rain gear and would love to walk your dog rain or shine! Growing up, I've always had dogs, cats, chickens and fish! I dog/house sit for all of my family members and their friends. Whether you're looking for someone to cuddle up with your dogs or someone to take them hiking, running or to the dog park, I am more than happy to! Why I love dog sitting I love dogs and being outside. I've had experience with all dog breeds. I have also had experience with different age groups, from puppies to seniors. I have experience administering medication by mouth or subcutaneously. I can also take care of household chores, mail, garbage, plants, pool, hot tub, etc. I am able to board dogs that aren't fixed at my house. I work 4 8-10 hour days during the week, but for sure have weekends and holidays off to fully take care of your pet(s). I get one day off a week as well. My boyfriend also always has Fridays off and is great with animals. They often love him more than me! We both love animals and they are always treated like a family member. I live on 10 acres in Colton, so I have a great area for your dog to run around. The property is mostly fenced, but a dog that likes to run off can easily escape if they wanted to. I don't let dogs outside unsupervised though, especially after dark.

About: As the small business owner of dog daycare and pet boarding facility since 2017, I know how important it is for pet parents like you and me to find quality pet services with the highest of standards for care and safety. While I still own and operate my boarding and daycare facility, the increase in demand for in-home pet sitting for geriatric, timid, or just flat out spoiled pets (they deserve it!) has peaked my interest, and I’d love to be able to continue to contribute my professional pet care knowledge and experience to pet parents like you in a more 1:1 setting. Prior to owning my business, I worked at a pet hospital for a couple years learning how to properly care for and handle anxious, timid, and wiggly dogs and cats, which I have been able to grow significantly in my pet boarding and daycare career. I am no stranger to medication administration and other special care needs (whether behavioral or physical) and truly enjoy getting to know each pet (and their parents!) who I have the honor to work with 1:1. Transparency, excellent communication, safety, and reliability are all incredibly important to me when it comes to working with pet parents like yourself. Whether through my own pet care business or through Rover, I never want a pet parent to worry about their pet's care, safety, or comfortability while away, which I practice through daily updates and 24/7 availability to communicate. Additional services can be discussed during our initial meet-and-greet! When I'm not working, I enjoy caring for my own pets, including several horses, goats, two golden retrievers, a couple barn kitties, a cockatiel, and guinea pig. Since I'm a remote business owner, I have relatively flexible and open availability during the week, over weekends, and during the holidays! While advance notice is highly preferred and recommended, I can usually squeeze in overnight or daytime drop-in visits and walks for emergencies and last minute plans. I am more than happy to cater to your preferences when it comes to entering and leaving your home including triple checking doors and gates are locked, crating your pup before leaving (if desired), checking for and cleaning up after any messes, leaving lights on or ensuring they're turned off before departing, etc. If no specific instructions are given, I will treat your home as I would my own, and reach out to you with any questions, concerns, or updates.

About: I have a passion for animals, when they are put in my care while your away or at work, they come first! I grew up with dogs and have a passion for them, I have officially worked with dogs as a profession for 6 years now. I allow dogs on my bed and couches however I continue whatever training you do for your dog while they are with me. You can count on the fact that I will not go against what you allow your dog to do and not do when there with me. I continue the care and training you do at home, consistency is so important. I do have a 2year old daughter, she is very good with animals, she does not treat them poorly & she is surprisingly gentle with my extended families dogs. I love spoiling dogs and taking them for drives (unless the dog is like my familys dog and disliles car rides). I am currently working part time so I have plenty of time to take care of your animal. My schedule is all over so I will look at each request for my services carefully and only accept when best for my family and yours. My routine and life is kept simple with having a 2year old daughter and she has a love for animals like her mamma which is what prompted me to start back up in working with dogs. I have a fenced yard, no pets of my own however am able to house dogs. I essentially do what the owner requests, the care depends on each individual family. Everyone trains there dog differently, in regards to furniture, treats and walking. Some owners are more strict and I stick to what the family wants with caring for there pet.

About: I’ve had dogs and cats since I was 7 years old. I currently own 4 dogs of varying sizes and breeds. For the last year I’ve work in veterinary medicine first as a technician assistant and then as a client service representative. I’ve done pet sitting multiple times for family members who had to travel. I work full time, Sunday-Wednesdays. I’m able to stop by early in the morning before work and after work in the afternoon on work days. I’m free for multiple home visits Thursdays-Saturdays I have a large secure yard with 4 very friendly and playful young dogs. I have two XXL kennels, one medium kennel, and a small kennel for dogs who prefer to sleep in a kennel at night.

About: I have a love for animals i absolutely adore being around them, and spending time with them. I’ve taken care of animals since I was a little kid like 4 years old. My parents would be working long day hours so I’d be the one taking my dog out and keeping an eye on her. Plus all my family members ask me first to pet Sit or walk their dogs for them. I never discriminate the breed :) I do have a job that requires me to work 4-5 days a week but I start at 8:30 and I get off usually around 3:30 at the latest, and would have no issue stopping by before or after work! I don’t always work Tuesday's, and I never work weekends! I will follow your care instructions exactly and do what is best for your pet, i will never overstep and put in my two sense for your pets care. You know what’s best for your pet.

About: I have been professionally caring for dogs since 2012, and my love for them runs even deeper. I grew up with dogs, had my own loyal companion for 17 years, and now share my home with two wonderful pups, ages 3 & 1. Dogs have always been my favorite animal—I truly understand them. Whether it’s playtime, companionship, or attentive care, I provide a safe and loving environment where dogs can feel happy and at home. My partner and I work opposite work schedules to accommodate time with the children and our pets. She is home in the mornings and evenings, and I am home in the afternoons. Welcoming one dog guest at a time into our home ensures they will get the best care. It is like joining our family for a few days! We live in a true dog paradise—five fenced-in acres to run, romp, and explore. Our property features a pond and creek, two fresh springs, old-growth trees, and a young woods, offering plenty of space for adventure. Someone is always home to supervise and care for the animals, ensuring a safe and loving environment. Our property includes 2 kids, 3 dogs, 5 cats, 21 chickens and 6 chicks. It's imperative that guest dogs have a positive history of interacting with all the above, as they are free-roaming on our acreage
