Dog Walking in Tigard

“Haven’t had a perfect person to take care of our pup. Gabby has done a fantastic job with Reno. Reno waits patiently 1/2 hour prior to walk time for Gabby. Warms the heart. Thank you Gabby”

About: Are you in need of a dedicated and experienced pet care provider with an unwavering passion for animals? Look no further! With over 5 years of professional experience combined in animal care working in cat shelters, dog daycares, and as a vet assistant, I am committed to providing your beloved furry companions with unparalleled attention and tailored care. Since a young age, I have been inspired to pursue a career working with animals. In pursuit of my aspirations, I am dedicated to expanding my knowledge and skills to become a veterinarian rehabilitator, specializing in animal physical therapy. My ultimate goal is to help animals recover from injuries, regain mobility, and lead fulfilling lives. In the meantime, I would love to provide exceptional care I can provide for your pets. I treat each furry friend as if they were my own, ensuring their needs are met with a personalized and compassionate approach. While my experience primarily revolves around cats and dogs, I have also gained valuable insights through my involvement in herpetology-related research, including handling and caring for reptiles, particularly snakes. As a hands-on, quick, and dedicated learner, I am fully committed to ensuring the happiness and well-being of your animal companions. Don't settle for anything less than extraordinary pet care. Reach out to me today and allow me to deliver the exceptional service that you and your cherished kiddos deserve. My schedule is mostly open, although I require a few days notice. My schedule is subjected to change in the future. Though it may be a minor change, this is subjected to change as soon as it occurs. Boarding and daycare available most days of the week. Ensuring the safety of your pets is paramount, which is why I adhere to an essential rule from my daycare experience: always close every gate behind you. I remain alert and conscious of their whereabouts, prioritizing their well-being. If pets are allowed in the yard, it is still necessary to watch in a fenced area. In addition to taking care of their basic needs, I love making sure they are comfortable which includes cleaning and setting up their kennel/crate, cleaning the surrounding floor, bowls, blankets, and toys. With these dedicated services, I create a safe and enjoyable environment for your beloved pets. Choose exceptional pet care tailored to your needs. Contact me today to experience the specialized service that prioritizes your pets' comfort and well-being. Pet first-aid/CPR training underway (will update profile when certification is earned)..

“Emily walks our 2 dogs M-F for the past few weeks. She does a great job! She always arrives on time and always walks them for a half hour. No cutting corners which I sincerely appreciate. I love that when I get home my dogs are more subdued and have most their energy out. (I say most because my Golden could be walked for 2hrs and still have energy!). I love how reliable she is, she takes good care of my fur babies, and if I'm busy and forgetful she reaches out and asks if I need walks the following week. Id definitely recommend her for dog walking!”

“My dog and I love our walks, so when I broke my foot, Chloe was very confused when we didn’t do our normal walkies. I contacted Meghan who responded right away, and happily took Chloe on half hour and even some hour long walks on a regular basis. She is kind, reliable, communicative, sends photos, tracks the walk, and Chloe seemed to really enjoy walking with her. Thanks so much Meghan!”

“Sophie is a very kind, loving and gentle pet sitter, she works with the dogs personality and temperaments and adjusts her caregiving style to meet the dogs & owners needs. She is a true dog lover, is extremely professional, responsible, and caring. She is very flexible and reliable and willing to work with families schedules.”

“Vai helped us with a last minute request to watch Ellie Mae! Ellie had a wonderful and relaxing time. She wanted to stay and cuddle up with Vai.”

“Marissa has watched my German shepherd puppy a few times now and she has always been great! She takes amazing care of him, taking him on walks as needed and making sure he gets his playtime. And she’s always very flexible with dates and my puppy’s strict schedule. I always feel comfortable when going on vacation and don’t have to worry about my puppy.”

About: As an animal lover raised in a household with dogs, cats, rabbits, hamsters, and even a turtle, I have had experience caring for pets since childhood. With my beloved 10-year-old golden retriever named Kona, I've navigated the joys and challenges of both puppy energy and senior pet care, handling various health issues along the way. My experience extends to my two cats, Bessie, the older gentle soul, and Joey, the energetic orange rascal who rules the roost. I understand the importance of trustworthy and compassionate care for furry family members, ensuring they receive love and attention while their humans are away. Rest assured that they will be in good hands, and that you will receive quick and clear communication throughout the process. I have experience administering medication to both dogs and cats, including oral medication, subcutaneous injections, and ear/eye drops. I am available at just about any time and/or day of the week - My schedule is extremely flexible given some advance notice. Please let me know if your animals have a specific schedule or routine that you would like me to follow. My approach to pet care centers around creating a secure and nurturing environment for animals within the familiarity of their own homes. I do my best to keep your pets on the same routine that they are accustomed to to ensure the least amount of stress while you are away. This commitment extends beyond feeding and walks; it encompasses building trust with each pet, while ensuring their comfort, security, and happiness. I will make sure to provide regular photo updates and prompt communication regarding any issues that arise - I know how important this is when leaving your pets for an extended time. You can have peace of mind knowing that your companions are in the care of someone dedicated to maintaining their well-being.

“Simon is an exceptional dog sitter who genuinely cares about my dog when he looked out after my dog when I was gone for a couple days. I trust him because he is very friendly and plays with his as well as my dogs a lot.”

“Tessa was AMAZING. I didn't have time to do a meet and greet beforehand, but she followed my instructions completely and kept me updated. Diego got an upset stomach that day and Tessa was quick to let me know and kept an eye on him (He's all better now). Thanks for taking care of Diego and doing such a great job!”

“Carol is AMAZING!!!! She provides the most detailed report cards and photos and is very quick to respond. Tucker loves his walks with her it's clear how much she loves dogs which makes us at ease. We trust Carol 100% with our fur baby Tucker and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for an awesome dog walker!”

“I hired Sharon to walk my dog a couple of times since I broke my foot. Sharon is friendly, punctual, and used the app to track her walks. She seemed to really enjoy the walks, and my dog was thoroughly exercised. I will look for Sharon if/when I need a dog walker again, and would recommend her to anyone!”

“Katie did a super job walking my big goofy dog. She is very reliable and I highly recommend her.”

“Alyssa is wonderful with my pups! She is especially gentle, patient and loving to my super shy pup. We were both thrilled when my shy pup started wagging her tail with Alyssa and now they are BFFs. Alyssa is very responsive, communicative and diligent in her work. Couldn’t be happier…and my pups agree she’s the best!”

“I started a new job in May. My previous employer had a really great dogs at work policy and Lula got to come with me at least 3 days a week. She loved it so much! She loves hanging out with people, so when I started my new job where she is not allowed, I knew I needed to figure something out so she wasn't alone all day every day. Megan and Michael have been such a saving grace and Lula loves them! They've been flexible and really great at communicating. It's so relieving to know Lula still gets some people time in her week. Seriously, I have zero complaints and will always use Megan and Michael for Lula's walking needs so long as they're available!”

About: I love both dogs and cats, and I can handle all breeds and sizes with love and compassion. I have been caring for my own pets since I was a child, and I’ve pet sit for many friends and family members. I am patient, reliable, and responsible! Whether it's going for a walk or a run, some well needed play time, or an over-night companion, I look forward to catering to individual pets’ personalities and quirks, and meeting your pet-sitting needs. I work as an administrative assistant at a CPA firm with flexible hours. I can be available mornings before 10 and nights after 4 on weekdays. Weekends are far more flexible as I'm almost always willing to rearrange my plans. Dogs who need a mid-day potty break during house sitting won't be an issue as I can leave work briefly in the day if necessary. I am capable of understanding and following pet owner instructions, and want to make sure I provide the kind of care that keeps your time away from your fur baby as easy on them as possible.

About: I have had dogs since I was a child, ranging from lazy senior dachshunds with medical issues, to a year old crazy husky mix. Animals are my life, and I try my best to make their lives the best possible, I mean we do what we can as pet owners. I have dealt with dogs that have medical conditions like seizures, back issues, digestive problems, allergies, etc. I am willing to provide extra care if your dog has special needs with no charge. I am very excited to work with you and your dog! During the weekdays, I am a little busy in the mornings, but I can definitely fit walking, or letting your dog go potty into my schedule. I can do anytime after 12:00 P.M to walk, or watch. With weekends, I am free anytime after 9:00 A.M. I have a securely fenced yard, with enough room for your pup to run around and get some fresh air. In your home, if you have any rules about dogs not being allowed on the bed/couch, I will of course be more than happy to abide by any rules you have. In my home, it doesn't matter about the hair, or size, all dogs are welcome on the couch and/or bed, although if you have certain rules you have in your house that you would like me to continue in my home, that is no problem whatsoever! I currently have one dog living with me at the moment, who doesn't mind the company of other dogs and enjoys it. But if there are any issues between them being that they don't necessarily get along, I will separate them immediately to avoid conflict. The practices I use to separate them do not include locking any dog in rooms, but just keeping them on opposite sides of the house, using a doggie gate. I don't have dog doors, but if your pooch wants to go outside in the backyard, they can of course have supervised playtime.

“Hailey is terrific with my dog, my pup is a rescue dog and is very fearful of new people but Hailey is so patient with her. And after every outing with Hailey she looks well taken care of and tired from the walk around the neighborhood. I routinely use her services and I would highly recommend her 😊”

“Mackenzie is an amazing pet sitter, and person! We have 2 labs and 2 cats and she is wonderful with them. We have had her stay in our home on multiple occasions and she never disappoints. Our girls and boys love her, and she always puts up with our chaos (and remodeling clutter/messiness) like a pro! Mackenzie was very flexible and understanding when our plans had to be canceled at the last minute not once, but twice. 😳 We truly appreciate her and would have been lost without her! Rest assured, she is someone you can trust with your loved furries!”

“Amanda is a dog-mom extraordinaire! When she cared for my pets I always knew that they were safe, loved and entertained. Amanda has a lot of energy and keeps the dogs moving and well exercised. Her own dog, Tramp, becomes an instant dog brother to any dog that stays with them and loves to play along. I highly recommend her to anyone for boarding, day care or walks!”
