“Louise was wonderful. We needed some emergency dog walking help and she did an amazing job. Our puppies loved her, she was punctual, and did a great job with them. Absolutely plan to use her services again.”
“Maria has been kind, flexible, communicative, and very reliable! I sometimes leave my dog with my mom, and Maria is my walker while he’s there, which means it’s not often. Even still, he gets so happy to see her after months! It tells me that she’s great with him. I’ll use her anytime I can!”
About: Personal experience with wide variety of animals including dogs, cats, and many totally normal animals that rover won’t allow me to reference in my experience. Willing and able to watch and care for large and small animals. Rates vary depending on number of animals and species. I currently stay at home and my children and grown, allowing me flexibility and availability to care for animals round the clock, meeting difficult medication schedules or potty breaks. I offer services in clients homes only and will provide food and water on schedule, dishwashing for pet dishes as needed, regular dog walking/poop removal, litter box cleaning, medication administration as needed, brushing and playtime. I am also able to provide care for farm and exotic animals with specific care instructions.
About: What sets me apart is that I'm dependable and I treat every pet like my own. I've cared for cats of every kind, from shy rescues to playful kittens, and neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me for years to check in on, feed, and play with their pets. I also have years of experience with dogs, including regular sitting and walks for a friend's dog. I'm patient with nervous or shy animals and let them warm up at their own pace. I'm calm, attentive, and good at noticing small changes in appetite or behavior, so I can tell you right away if something seems off. I live in Camas, so I'm close by and easy to reach. I'm available weekday evenings and weekends, and I send photo and text updates after every visit so you always know how things went. Every new client gets a free meet-and-greet. Dog care is a regular part of my week, and I've been caring for dogs for years, starting with my friends' pets. I work a day job, so I'm available for walks on weekdays after 5pm and throughout the weekend. That means I can give your dog a proper evening walk after you get home late, or a relaxed weekend outing while you're out for the day. Because walking dogs is something I enjoy, I schedule my clients carefully and never rush. I keep my walks close to home in Camas, so I'm not stretched thin, and I'm on time. I plan ahead, so if your plans change or you need a last-minute walk, just message me and I'll do my best to fit it in. I usually take on only a few clients at a time, so each dog gets my full attention and I can build a routine with you and your pet. Your dog's safety comes first on every walk. Before we start, we'll do a meet-and-greet so I can learn your dog's habits, triggers, and routine, and you can show me the leash, harness, and any commands or rules you use. I always keep dogs on a secure leash, stay alert to traffic, other dogs, and hazards, and avoid busy areas if your dog gets nervous. I bring water for warm days, pick up after your dog, and check the weather so walks stay comfortable. If your dog is tired or something seems off, I'll shorten the walk and let you know. After every walk, I send a photo and a quick update on how it went, including any bathroom breaks and behavior. When I'm in your home, I follow your instructions for keys, doors, and gates, make sure everything is locked and secure when I leave, and respect your privacy and property. If there's ever an emergency, I'll contact you right away and get your dog to your vet or an emergency clinic, and I'm happy to keep your vet's info on hand.
“Nicholas was great with our dog! They are always on time, easily reachable, and commutative. Subie (my dog) looks forward to his walks with Nicholas and I feel stress free knowing Subie is in good hands and we have someone reliable to work with!”
“Chelsea is wonderful! As a new pup mom was a bit anxious about getting all this started and how it would go for Maggie. Chelsea made it so easy, answered all my questions, shares pictures of their time together and assures Maggie is well cared for, couldn’t be happier!”
“Madelyn was available in a pinch, replied quickly and has reliably shown up to give my dog Hiro a much needed walk every week when I am unable. Definitely recommend, and I'm so glad I found her when I did. :)”
“Loreley goes above and beyond for our pup and always ensures to communicate with us. Loreley is always on time, sends us pictures and is respectful and professional. Our pup loves Loreley!”
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.
About: I am comfortable with all breeds, sizes, and ages of dogs and cats. I am available every day. I can't wait to hug your pet. I am currently open to caring for your pet(s) every day of the week. On Sundays, I will not be available before 2 PM. I will regularly let your dog out to potty, take your dog on as many walks as necessary, and feed your dog at scheduled times.
About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats my whole life. I have 2 kitties of my own as well! I’ve taken care of energetic Huskies to tiny Yorkies, plus a few other adopted cats along the way. I have experience helping to train puppies and keeping up with the daily responsibilities of both cats and dogs. I also have experience with goats, pigs, chickens and horses! I am currently studying to become a dental assistant, and I’m excited to share my love with your pets too! I have experience with my own independent pet sitting business. I did pet sitting for a couple years around my neighborhood in middle school as well! I currently work part-time 4-5 days a week, while taking 2 night classes a week. Which leaves me with plenty of hours to dedicate to your furry companions. Right now, I usually work mornings, and occasionally in the evening typically between 5-7 hours. So I have lots of availability in most evenings. Please keep this in mind if you are looking for a pet sitter to be fully supervising your fur baby/babies all day, this may not be the best fit. :) I’ve cared for dogs in a variety of settings, including fenced yards, cable runs, and supervised free roam. I’m experienced with crate training and handling dogs with different leash manners, from strong pullers to well behaved walkers. I have handled elderly dogs, administering oral and injectable medications. I have also dealt with young pups, and cleaned up potty messes. For cats, I’ve always kept them safely indoors and monitor them to ensure their well being. I do my best to clean up and leave the house how it was when I arrived! I do my best to stay connected to my clients, updating them frequently/or asking questions. I do not book house sits until after the meet and greet, and all information is disclosed. I am honest about my availability and will be sure to communicate that to my clients. Do not be afraid to pick someone else if we find it won’t be the best fit! I appreciate all transparency in order to make sure your pets get the best quality care they can.
About: I have been caring for animals for over 40 years and truly love being around them. Over the years I've owned and cared for dogs cats chickens goats and ducks so I'm very comfortable with different personalities needs and routines. I currently have a 17 lb rat terrier named Dutton who I've had since he was 12 weeks old. He is now almost 5 years old and absolutely the love of my life. Because of him I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet and know they're being treated like family. My home is set up to be safe and comfortable for dogs I have a fully fenced backyard with a dog run, as well as a dog door so they can come and go in and out freely. I offer weekend overnight boarding and make sure every dog in my car gets attention affection and a calm loving environment. If you need longer boarding needs we can discuss that. Take care of something I generally enjoy and prioritize in my routine. During the weekdays Im home most of the day and maintain a consistent schedule at home with morning and evening care. On weekends I'm home much more and able to give pets my full attention. This is when I offer overnight boarding so your dog will have plenty of supervision interaction and a relaxed home environment. Because I have a dog door and a fully fenced backyard with a dog run dogs in my care can safely go in and out as needed I make sure they are comfortable, cared for, and treated like part of the family while they're with me. I have a fully fenced backyard. With the dog run. A dog door so they can go in and out when they please. This gives the dog an opportunity to venture into the backyard as they like.

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've lived in many households, including farms and ranches, with animals of all sorts. I've taken care of cats, dogs, horses, chickens, goats, reptiles, and birds -- As well as having tons of experience in childcare, but that's a separate beast ;D -- I'm attentive, respectful, thoughtful, and kind. Currently I am a line cook and have a small arts business and do this to help support my dreams :) I am a full time online college student and recently got laid off from my remote technical support job so I'm very free and very in need of some gigs to keep my bills paid. I envision myself staying in or checking in with my clients homes to care for furry friends. I'll look out for the health and well being of your pets so that you don't have to worry about them while you're away. Currently, I cannot host any client pets, as I have a skittish rescue cat. My partner stays home with her, though, so I fully free to make sure the critters in your home stay happy, healthy, and cared for.
About: I’ve spent years caring for dogs who are absolutely convinced they’re furry royalty. I’m skilled in managing zoomies, snack negotiations, dramatic tantrums, and cuddles on demand. Whether your pup is a diva, a goofball, or a pro napper, I make sure their stay feels like a luxury vacation. Expect belly rubs, playtime, treats, and so much fun they might pretend they don’t want to go home. This is my full time job, I will be home full time for you and your pup! I do work at a dog training facility in my free time for hours for my CPDT (dog training) certification, but you and your dog come first! I have a 7 foot tall fully fenced yard for your pup to explore, there are kennels available for those who need, and a plethora of dog beds, couches, and toys to keep your fur babies entertained. I also rent out Sniff Spots for extended stay guests to provide a fun adventure day!

Jessica is great! This is the second time using her to walk my dog. I am under the weather and so appreciate her being there to walk Jesse! She shows up on time and sends me great pictures along the way, so I know he's being taken good care of. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her!
It’s so clear that Anna loved hanging out with our dog, Daisy, from day 1. After getting to know her at our local park, Anna planned out a new exploratory route that met both Daisy’s physical AND mental stimulation. She is also mindful of modifying times and activities based on the heat advisories we’ve had lately! We will definitely be asking Anna to help us out again in the future!
