“Zoe was wonderful with our dog, Bode, giving us much peace of mind while we were traveling. She was reliable, communicative, prompt, warm and friendly. We will definitely use Zoe again and highly recommend her services!”
About: I've had many pets since I was a young child. My grandparents had a farm so I've had experience with all sorts of animals. My dream is to have an animal sanctuary some day. I believe it's important to provide care to an animal in their home to limit stress and disruption to their normal routine. I have 3 dogs at home. Many of my home cleaning clients have animals so I'm exposed to all types of pets on a daily basis. Walking dogs provides exercise not only to the dog but for me as well. Providing care and a routine that the animal is used to is important to me. Communication with the pet parent is key to a successful experience with any animal.
“Princess was super awesome. My little Lexi is a very shy dog to people upfront but for some reason Lexi went differently to Princess and greeted her. She took a lot of pictures and spent the full 30 minutes walking Lexi. She made me feel at ease and made sure Lexi was safe. I 100% recommend Princess.”
“So glad I found Michelle for my anxious "velcro" pit bull dog! She has provided walks and even stayed with him at my home overnight. He has never been this relaxed when I've been out of town, which allows me to travel guilt free!”
About: Dog parent and over 15 years of walking and sitting dogs for family and clients by referral. Easy going and flexible for what ever the pet needs. I am flexible and will work around your schedule. Available every week day. Available all weekends. Ready to walk in any weather. Rain or shine, I’m here for your pet. Accommodating to any situation or request. Just looking to get some exercise and play with your pup. I am just as excited to get out for some fresh as your four legged companion.
About: While growing up I have always had a dog in the home. I’m a huge dog lover and don’t know what I would do if I did not have a dog in my life. I remember when my parents let me chose our next dog when I was young. I chose a sheltie and named him Arrow. The reason for the name Arrow was when I went to pick him up I noticed in his fur on the back of his head was an arrow. I loved taking care of Arrow and we had a special bond! I loved taking him on walks and he loved chasing me around the house. When I turned 15 I started to take care of one of my neighbors cats and fish when they went on vacations. After completing one summer, I started taking care of their cats and fish for the next eight years before I moved out. Once the rest of my neighbors found out I was known in the neighborhood for taking care of my neighbors dogs and cats when they were on vacations! I have also taken care of many of my coworkers cats and dogs as well. So rest assured your pet will be in good hands while you are on vacation. It will be one less stress to worry about. I currently work full time, however work three 12 hours shifts. I’m currently off Friday-Monday. So I’m available for the weekends, so perfect for anyone wanting to do a weekend getaway! I do work graveyard so I’m available anytime after 2pm on Fridays. However, if you need to drop of earlier just communicate so I can plan ahead. My girlfriend and I live in a townhouse. I don’t have a fenced backyard. However, have a small backyard that is used for potty breaks. It does have a small area of grass turf (fake grass). The good news we live in Fairview in the Fairview Terrace community. We have a very large area for dogs. So your dog will have lots of playtime in the grassy area. Also, the neighborhood is perfect for walking your dog as well. The community is fenced and a gated community as well. Our community is very dog friendly and many pet owners. We also have a micro mini Golden doodle. So your dog will have a playmate as well. We can also send photos of your pet to you while on vacation to help with the separation. I know when I go on vacation I have a hard time leaving my fur baby behind. For me, getting photos of my fur baby made the vacation a little easier!
About: I have been caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and demeanors since I was in middle school! I have experience working with puppies as young as 10 weeks, as well as senior dogs in need of medication + a watchful eye. I love dogs and they love me, and I have been invited back by every client to care for their pet(s) in their absence. I’m currently working part-time, so my schedule is very open for providing the best care for your furry friend(s)! I am self employed and can work at my own pace during the day, so my hours of availability for walks/drop ins/overnight care are very flexible! In your home, I will keep your dog safe, clean, and happy! I love taking pups on walks and/or finding creative ways to get their energy out in the house if it’s too hot/cold outside for a walk.
“We had such a great experience with Ariane! She’s incredibly knowledgeable about dogs and you can tell she truly cares about what she does. She took the time to listen to all of my requests and followed through on everything with professionalism and attention to detail. On top of that, she’s easy to communicate with. I’m grateful to have found her and would happily recommend her to anyone looking for a great dog walker.”
About: I'm a mom to two cats, Schneider and Stormy, and I'm just as at home with dogs. I've cared for pups of all sizes and energy levels, from leash-pullers to couch potatoes. I work freelance, so my schedule is flexible and I'm never rushing out the door. Beyond the basics (food, water, walks, meds exactly as you like them), I always set aside time to just play with your pet. Every furry cuties I get to meet feels like a little stroke of luck, and I want them to have a genuinely fun time with me. I'm also into journaling and photography. I'm a bit obsessed with catching cute pet moments on camera, so fair warning: you might get a LOT of photos. Hope you don't mind! 😉 I work freelance, so my schedule is pretty flexible on both weekdays and weekends. I'm not squeezing your pet in between other commitments, so I can show up on time, stay a bit longer, and actually hang out instead of rushing off. Just let me know what works for you! Currently I only do drop-in visits, so your pet gets to stay in their own comfy space. I'll follow your routine, and after each visit I'll log what I did and how your pet was doing: meals, potty, playtime, and their energy level. Safety-wise, doors stay locked, windows and gates get double-checked, and leashes are always on for walks. I'll keep your vet and emergency contacts handy, and if anything seems off, you'll hear from me right away.
About: I’ve grown up with all kinds of pets, from cats and dogs to Guinea pigs and lizards. I’m adaptable, and can take care of anything you need. I’m excited and ready to meet and help out you and your babies! Fun fact about me: I’ve actually traveled to Pennsylvania to pet sit! My full time job doesn’t start until the start of January, so until then I’m free! I am free all winter and summer long! I do have a part time job that I work 6-8 hours a couple days a week. I receive my work schedule weekly. Building trust with you and your pets is huge. I’d love to schedule a meet up before taking on caring for your pet so they can get to know me and be comfortable. I am adaptable and care for your animals no matter the circumstances
“Thanks so much Cassidy for taking good care of Archie like always so appreciate your care of him and making sure that he has all of his needs met! I’m so grateful of your attentiveness and flexibility to make sure that my little guy has the best experience while I’m away. You’re the best!”
About: We love our pets and are looking forward to loving your pets as well! I thoroughly enjoy dog, cat and house-sitting. I've been pet/house sitting for friends for 20+ years. We have an energetic, pet-loving, 9-year-old daughter who is so gentle and sweet with dogs and cats and loves helping take care of and play with them. We have a sweet 1-year-old Chiweenie named Bella who we got from the Oregon Humane Society in December. We also have a sweet 1-year-old male Tabby cat named Buddy who is best buds with our dog :) Your adored pets will be well taken care of and loved in our home or yours. Feel free to reach out to me and see if we'd be a great fit for one another.
About: Growing up on a farm gave me hands on experience with a wide variety of animals, and my regular volunteer work at a vet clinic has given me knowledge and pet care skills. My long term goal of becoming a veterinarian drives me to provide the best care for every pet I sit! Whether it's training a puppy or managing the specific needs of a senior animal. I treat every pet with love and care for them with the experience i’ve obtained through years of clinical and agricultural experience 🐾 I’m currently working part time and usually not working more than 30hrs a week. I have a pretty flexible schedule and can usually give your pet as much time as needed! I like to follow their usual routines while keeping their space clean. Making sure they feel safe and comfortable is always the most important part!
“I needed some temp help at the park while I have a cast on and Charlie was willing! Met me at Alton Baker to help with Hoot & Holler and I was grateful. I have a hard time handling two 100 lb dogs even with a good arm. Friendly, easy to chat with and capable guy!”
About: I’ve been caring for animals most of my life, and pets truly are my family. I started with cats, even bottle-feeding a litter of kittens several times a day when their mother disappeared. Later I got my first dog, trained him myself, and worked in the training section at PetSmart. Now, with over 20 years in business as a solo pet-care professional, I’ve handled allergies, separation anxiety, aggression, hip dysplasia, blindness, and more. That experience means I notice the small things, stay calm in the tough moments, and always put your pet’s safety and comfort first. When you’re away, you can feel confident your pet is with someone who will love and protect them as if they were my own. Reach out and let’s talk about how I can help care for your furry family member. My weekly schedule includes some transportation responsibilities, but I also have several hours of availability throughout the day. I typically start my day around 5:00 a.m. and wind down around 10:00 p.m., giving me a fairly flexible schedule. I am also fully available on weekends. I am dependable, flexible, and able to accommodate a variety of scheduling needs. I have a large, fully fenced backyard with plenty of space for pets to play and enjoy themselves. I have one dog of my own, Pup Pup, who is a 40-pound Pug/Boston Terrier mix. He is very friendly, social, and absolutely loves the company of other animals. He would be more than happy to keep your pet entertained and provide a friendly companion during their stay!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Troutdale
Zoe is simply amazing ! She is professional, went out of her way to set up a time to meet our dog before she started walking him. Always communicates during the visits and my dog is very happy. Our family is grateful to know that he is in good hands while we are at work.
Emily did an amazing job with both my dogs, but especially my girl who I just got from a local rescue and isn’t sure about new people, let alone a new person coming into the house when I’m not there. Emily was patient, came over to meet her (them) several times before starting their weekly walks. Will absolutely ask her to help out in the future!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Walking in Troutdale is $17 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $0 and $33 per walk. On Rover, walkers set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in Troutdale. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route, the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.
The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Troutdale after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.
Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the walk begins.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every walker on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page.
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Troutdale. On Rover:
- 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your walker interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
