Dog sitter/walker in Portland, OR, area?

Basenji Talk
  • I may be going on vacation for a couple weeks at the end of October and am looking for a good dog walker/sitter to come in for about an hour during the weekdays. My husband will be around, but he works a long day, and we don't have a dog door.

    Please let me know if you have any suggestions! Thanks!

  • Have you called your vet and asked for a pet referal re this service? That would be the first place I would ask.

  • Yes, I already have a message in with my vet's office, but I figured I would have more of a chance to find a basenji-crazed sitter in the forums!

    Just seeing this, not sure how I missed it but I am so sorry. Yes, blessed with nearly 16 yrs… but that's more years to leave a bigger hole in your heart.

    In your position, where you really have to take her out a lot, I understand. And I hope her comfort continues. My point was it is situational need, not dog need to be that social. :) I have a slim chance of that having worked with my current 2, but with my incredibly dog aggressive first one, I'd have been out in a basket muzzle and warning everyone to keep their dogs away.

    Not sure how far that is from Raleigh, but one of my whippet friends has a very nice boarding kennel in Raleigh and might know of some home care people. Her website is: http://tcanimalcare.com/

    I took my B to Gentle Care in Cary. They were really great with Cody, even with his quirks.

    I like this one a lot, it's hilarious! Being a BRAT member, I would have to rephrase the last one about pregnancy, though… (I know, I'm taking it too serious... sorry). :DI am definitely going to make a copy of it for my fridge!:D
