Emma was fantastic with my dog! He took to her so quickly and he’s usually more shy/timid around strangers. She followed all instructions to a T and took a bunch of photos which I appreciate. I would absolutely recommend Emma to watch your fur babies!

Lucinda is incredible with our boy! We can tell in all the pictures she takes that he has such a great time with her. She communicates so well. We always look forward to her reviews of how the day went with Cruz - she keeps it creative and always writes something fun and descriptive. Couldn’t recommend her more!

About: Many families over the years have gained strong relationships with me. I even babysit for families I pet sit for. I walk many dogs throughout the week, and dog parks are not far from my area. I am currently working Part-Time and completing two summer classes online for college. However, my schedule is very open with minimal vacations planned this summer! My family has recently adopted a new boxer puppy! He is 10 months old and in a very loving home! In my clients home, I will always be respectful to their space.

About: I have over 8 years of pet-sitting experience and have cared for dogs of all ages, sizes, and activity levels. My experience includes caring for young puppies, senior dogs, and dogs with special medical and mobility needs, including back and hip problems, vision impairment, and proprioceptive ataxia. As a medical student, I am highly attentive to detail and comfortable monitoring pets for changes in behavior, mobility, appetite, and overall well-being. I understand the importance of maintaining routines, administering medications when needed, and adapting care to each dog’s unique needs. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playtime, extra patience, or specialized support, I will provide safe, compassionate, and reliable care while treating them like my own. I am currently in my clinical year of medical school, which gives me a structured and predictable schedule. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, with walks and check-ins scheduled before clinic, after clinic, and on my days off. I am highly organized and committed to providing dependable, consistent care, keeping pet owners updated with photos and messages so they can feel confident their pets are well cared for while they are away. The safety and well-being of your pet are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, preferences, and any medical or behavioral needs before providing care. Whether I am stopping by for a walk, check-in visit, or overnight stay, I strive to maintain a calm, familiar environment that helps pets feel comfortable and secure. I have experience caring for puppies, senior pets, and animals with medical conditions, so I understand the importance of closely following feeding schedules, medication instructions, exercise restrictions, and safety precautions. I treat every home with respect and every pet as if they were my own, providing reliable care, plenty of affection, and regular updates for owners.

About: I have taken care of, and been around dogs, pretty much my whole life. As an adult I have experience with leash/dog reactive dogs, super high energy puppies, done overnights for dogs with separation anxiety. I also have experience training my own dogs and really enjoy it. I am stay at home mom with both my kids in school so I have free time especially in the mornings after school drop off. I am very careful with other people's property. There should be no signs that I've in your home except for well loved, exercised and happy pets.

About: Have always loved animals since I was aware they existed. I was the designated caregiver to the family animals growing up and was the go-to for pet sitting with neighbors and friends. I have an aptitude for communicating and caring for animals. I have an ecology degree, and I used to work for the Dallas Zoo. I have experience will all kinds of exotic animals as well. I had some interesting pets growing up including chickens, a pet pig, and a sugar glider. I currently have a dog-Indiana and 2 cats- Muir and Jonesy. My own dog, Indiana, knows 25+ commands and tricks. I love meeting new animals, showering them with love. I am accustomed to working with more challenging animals that need more patience and care. I am available Mondays-Fridays. Available most Saturdays & Sundays depending on calendar dates. Okay with working nights and longer durations. Please let me know as soon as possible for scheduling changes. I am good listener and communicator. I will take in to account the specific needs of your animal with care and diligence. Please feel free to fully explain your needs with me.

About: I have a busy home with a sweet & energetic German Shepherd, 10 year old daughter, and 14 year old son. We all love animals and enjoy playing and cuddling up when it's not too hot! I work from home most of the time so your pet(s) will get a lot of attention from our family and plenty of potty breaks. I work from home at least half of the time. I typically will be gone no more than 4 hours at a time. If I am gone more than 6 hours I will let you know, but this is not typical. My dog is a great playmate and your pet(s) will get plenty of attention and breaks outside. I have a decent sized home and can accommodate most requests. Your pet will have plenty of space inside and locally outdoors for potty breaks and play time. With 2 kids and a large dog, I am flexible to meet you and your pets needs!

About: I was born into a family of German Shepherd lovers, and grew up primarily taking care of our German Shepherds until about 10 years old when we also adopted cats and labradors. Once I graduated college, I adopted an 8 week old Alaskan malamute, who I cared for his entire 11 years of life until he passed just recently this past January. I am not ready to adopt again, but am missing the presence of dogs in my life and looking to fill that space by helping friends, family, neighbors and members of the community with their dog care needs. I am experienced with puppies, high maintenance animals, and especially with large breeds (my boy was 150lbs at a healthy weight and required at least 5 miles of exercise a day). I am kind, caring, uniquely experienced, energetic and reliable. I currently am only working/unavailable late Saturday and Sunday nights, and am extremely active during the week. I have plenty of free time in general. I am respectful to how you’d like your dog to be taken care of in your home and out and about, and also have my own set of everything (leashes, crate, toys, beds, etc) if need be.

Since I was 10 years old, family, friends, and neighbors have trusted me to care for their pets. While I love all dogs, rescue dogs hold a special place in my heart. Whether it’s walks, drop-in visits, or overnight stays, I treat every dog like my own and prioritize their comfort, safety, and happiness. ✨ Serving the SW Portland area- located in Multnomah Village but I’m willing to travel ✨ Flexible scheduling ✨ Reliable & attentive care ✨ Accepting new clients I’m looking forward to meeting your adorable pups! I’m currently pet sitting full time, so I can be flexible to meet your pet’s needs day or night. I’m even available on short notice. I have a flexible schedule for walks, drop-ins, and house sitting. I can accommodate morning, midday, and afternoon visits. I am willing to work with your schedule 😊 Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities.

About: Animals have always been at the center of our lives. Together, we share our home with two senior dogs, both 12 years old, and caring for them has given us firsthand experience through every stage of a pet’s life. From the boundless energy of puppies to the special attention senior pets need, we understand how routines, patience, and care make all the difference. Over the years, we became the go-to pet sitters for friends and family, trusted to look after pets of all kinds. From kittens to cats, small dogs to large breeds with big personalities. More recently, we’ve expanded that circle, building a business rooted in reliability, trust, and a genuine love for animals. What sets us apart is the thoughtful, consistent care we bring as a team. We take time to understand your pet’s unique needs and personality so they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for as if they were our own. Pet care fits naturally into our daily lives, and with both of us involved, we’re able to offer flexible coverage. Together, we can reliably accommodate walks, drop-ins, or extended visits without rushing or cutting corners. Our goal is to make sure your pet’s routine stays consistent, whether that means a quick midday check-in, evening walks, or longer stretches of care. By working as a team, we’re able to give your pet more attention and you more peace of mind. When we’re in your home, our priority is creating a calm, safe environment for your pet. We follow your instructions closely, from feeding routines to favorite walking routes, because pets thrive on familiarity. You can expect reliable updates and communication from us so you always know how your pet is doing. Above all, we treat your home and your pet with the same care and respect we would want for our own.

About: I’ve housesat for years ranging from dogs, cats and even a chameleon. I love all animals and enjoying watching them. Previously I have administered medications to dogs and cats. I work full time for an oral surgeon. I am open to weekend appointments starting in July. I will not be working from June 29th- July 6th and completely free! I currently have a 2.5 year old rescue named Rusty who is my world and very spoiled. He gets lots of walks, daily teeth brushing, snuggles, lick mats and all the dog bones he desires. Rusty has a lot of energy so I am used to tiring out a dog with a tennis ball, dog park visit or long walk.

We’ve had an amazing experience with our dog walker! She is incredibly communicative, reliable, and truly goes the extra mile every time. Han and Chewie absolutely adore her, which gives me so much peace of mind when I’m away. She always sends lots of updates and pictures, which I really appreciate—it makes such a difference being able to see how happy and well cared for they are. While I was away, one of my dogs wasn’t feeling well, and she took extra care and attention to make sure he was comfortable and looked after. That level of thoughtfulness meant so much to me. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring. We will definitely continue to use her!
