About Althea

Experience: 6 yrs

Hi! I'm Thea - a lifelong animal lover with a soft spot for the daily rituals that make a dog's day. Whether it's a mid-day walk, a bit of playtime, or just company while you're away, I treat every pet like I'd want mine treated: with patience, attention, and genuine care. I bring a calm, grounded presence to my visits (a little bit of my background in somatic and body-based practice sneaks in here - animals respond to steady energy, and I try to offer just that). You'll get regular updates and photos, so you always know your pet is happy, safe, and loved while you're gone. Based in Portland, available for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting. Let's chat about what your pet needs!
