Dog Boarding in Ardenwald, Milwaukie, OR

“My wife and I had to travel from Portland to NYC very last minute (and days before Thanksgiving) because of a death in the family. Since it was going to be a hectic trip, we decided to leave our pup Truman with Trisha. We were super nervous as this was the first time we had to leave Portland without him since we moved here. Truman spent almost a week with Trisha. She was super responsive and communicative. We got pictures and updates regularly. We knew 100% that Truman was in good hands when we got a picture of him after he had jumped in bed with her. Not something he would do if he wasn’t very comfortable! We would definitely feel comfortable leaving Truman again with Trisha.”

“Jenna and Samuel are the absolute best! We couldn’t have asked for a better family to take care of our one year old Cavapoo while we were on vacation. Our dog had plenty of love and attention while we were gone. Jenna and Samuel are great at communicating. They shared daily updates with pictures and videos as well. I highly recommend Jenna and Samuel, we will be going back for sure!”

“Tara was great during this whole experience. Starting from the meet and greet to when we picked up Our dog. She was great about sending updates to us like we requested so we felt good that our dog was happy and well adjusted. Great at communication and smooth pickups and drop offs. Very friendly, our dog seemed to have enjoyed the stay. We will definitely love to book Tara again for another stay when we need it.”

“Susie is the best!! She tool such loving and warm care of our boy!! I would trust her with our dog anytime. She sent photos and messages every day....he was so happy and at home. Absolute perfection. Thank you Susie!!”

“Peter was fantastic! My two dogs (with somewhat quirky needs) were very happy. I have never left my dogs with a stranger but Peter made it easy on me. Sending photos and updates. Will definitely use again!”

“Anna WA very accommodating. She dud two meet and greets so we could meet both two legged and four legged family. She was excellent in keeping us updated with text and pictures of how the stay was going. Anna has an obvious big love for dogs and our Molly was very happy and well cared for. We will avail ourself of her care again.”

“Katie was wonderful! She did everything in her power to make our senior dog less anxious during her stay and kept us updated with cute pictures. Thanks Katie!”

His commitment to their well-being, coupled with his natural talent, undoubtedly sets him apart as a remarkable individual in the realm of animal care and companionship.”

“Angela treated our furry kids like her own, and we know they felt loved and cared for in our absence. A double plus, Angela is a Travel Agent too, and offered us a lot of great advise while we were traveling. Definitely will have her watch our furry kids next time we plan an out of town adventure.”
