We will treat your dog like family!

Pet care experience

IMPORTANT NOTES: *We will have to consider the quality of the stay with larger dogs due to the small size of our home (for both dog and humans!). We typically take up to 65 lbs without any issue. *There may be several weekdays where my work schedule overlap, meaning your dog would be alone for a typical work day. Know that could be a factor if you send a booking request. *If my schedule makes drop off or pick up extend your stay, I will give a discount for any extra nights. THE GOOD STUFF! My husband and I absolutely love animals. We both grew up with pets, have previously owned dogs as adults, and had a cat together up until a year ago. We would love to have a pet but don't want 24/7, 365 days a year responsibility. Taking care of someone else's much loved pet is a fun way to get our animal-fix :) We will love on your pet while they are in our care. I have done a significant amount of dog-sitting in the past with multiple different clients. I feel confident in my abilities to care for your dog. I have done complicated feeding and medications, and am willing to consider that extra care. Please don't hesitate to ask. Our house is not very large but we have a decent size backyard which is like a jungle that dogs like to explore. It is completely fenced and if preferred dogs will not be left alone outside (there is one small 3 foot section that is jump-able by larger dogs - please just let us know if that could be an issue). Please also note that we have a pond in our backyard. It hasn't been an issue for dogs in the past but thought we'd let you know just in case! Thank you!

My dog has found his second home with Melanie & Daniel. They were patient and great with his shy, quirky personality during his first few stays and he has settled right in with them - so much so that now he doesn’t want to leave when I pick him up! I was able book an extended stay with them and didn’t worry about him for one second. They are always super flexible with drop off and pickup. I would highly recommend them!

Melanie and Daniel were wonderful with Roxy! I could tell she was well cared for over her entire stay. I would definitely recommend their services and will be using them again for future stays.

Melanie is amazing! Our dog is always so happy and barely even misses us. Melanie sends us great pictures and does a great job with our pup.

Melanie was a wonderful host! Zoe got to go out to dinner, and hang out in their beautiful tropical paradise backyard. I will definitely plan to have Zoe visit on our trips to Portland in the future.

Dogs love exploring our backyard, as it is like a jungle to them. But when they need more or are bored, Chimney Park is within easy driving distance from our house with a very large, fenced in dog park! Just let me know if the dog park is a good option for your dog because we could go there daily!
