Doggy Day Care in Balm Grove

“Andre took the time to make sure our dogs would be a good fit together and the experience with handling large dogs was very evident. I highly recommend and will book again.”

“We couldn’t be more thrilled with the care Chelsea provided for Bubu and Lola during their days at her place! Both of our Huskies can be a bit particular, but she handled them with such patience and love. From the moment we dropped them off, it was clear that Bubu and Lola felt right at home. 

 Chelsea kept us updated throughout the day with pictures and messages, which made our workday so much easier knowing they were having a great time. It was such a relief to see them so relaxed and happy!
 We highly recommend Chelsea to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving caregiver for their pets. Bubu and Lola can’t wait for their next visit! 😊🐶”

About: As an animal lover, I'd consider myself very experienced with animals of all kinds. I grew up with dogs, cats, birds, and horses. Before losing him in the fall of 2023, I raised and cared for my dog, Chaps, for 12 years. It was a great 12 years, and I loved spending time training him. "Sit" and "down" are just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the tricks Chaps could do. I am very comfortable with pets of all sizes. I am also comfortable taking care of most any special needs your pet may have. Tell me what you and your pet like, and I will do my best to provide an experience just the way you, and they, like it! Your pet will be safe and comfortable with me! I'm pretty flexible in how I organize my time. Walks, feedings, etc. can all be arranged with me to satisfy your expectations. Having had our own pets, we feel confident that satisfying your pet’s needs while they’re in my care should be seamless. Our backyard is dog-safe with a 6-foot privacy fence and access to a maintained yard with grass. Following your instructions and having the ability to communicate will provide a sense of security for you and helps me to give the best experience for your pet if I have questions about your pet’s care while you’re away. I’m a big fan of communicating!

About: **Only accepting small 🐶 at this time ** We are a pet loving family who understand the importance of quality care for our pets when we are away from them. We grew up with house pets & farm animals and have had pets of my own since we were kids. Friends and family can attest to our love and care of animals which we have passed on to our kiddos who also enjoy being around them just as much as we do. We work from home and have two pups, Emilio Estevez and Bruce Willis. We enjoy having pups around our home and love watching them run around in the yard. 🐶 When staying with us, your pup(s) will interact with every member of our family; as well as a pup or two from other households. They will get lots of cuddles, playtime and downtime as needed. During the day, pup(s) are free to roam around and lounge anywhere downstairs, including the furniture. They also have unrestricted access to our large fenced backyard. At night time, pup(s) will sleep downstairs with our pups in their own crate or playpen. We have plenty of toys and always happy to play fetch or take them on walks around the neighborhood.

“Cristina is kind to our dog and he enjoys seeing her. She is responsible, easy to communicate with, and takes good care of our little Bear.”

About: Why I love dog sitting I have been a dog lover since birth, in my lifetime my family and I have owned a few breeds of dogs, including Dalmatian, Black Lab, Collie, Dachshund, and 2 pugs. At 10, neighbors started asking me to watch their pets during the summer time, and by 17 I was volunteering at the local Humane Society. My Senior Project was based off of that volunteer time, where I encouraged people to adopt and donate what they could to such causes. My experience administering medication In pill form, or through food and or water, yes. I am home all day everyday except for occasional appointments. I would be a good fit for a low energy dog that just needs to be kept company and let out regularly during the day. I am unable to provide walks due to being on crutches currently, but I do have a friendly dog for your baby to play with, as well as a large fenced yard. I have a large fenced yard. Fencing is secure and 6ft tall, one part of the fence in 4 ft but dogs will not be left unsupervised.

“I can’t say enough great things about Melani! She treats my dog like her own—he absolutely adores her, and I feel completely at ease knowing he’s in her care. Melani is truly his second mom. She’s reliable, incredibly accommodating, and very communicative, which makes scheduling so easy. I trust her so much that I use her multiple days every week while I’m at work. If you’re looking for someone who will love and care for your dog as much as you do, Melani is the one!”

About: I live in Gales Creek on 22 acres with woods and private trails along with 2 small older pups that love to play. Super idylic with tons of space to play and a roomy home to chill! I love dogs -- I grew up with a golden retriever, Amiga, as well as 2 cocker spaniels, Gus & Nikki -- previously lived with 2 chihuahua mixes, a doberman/rottweiler mix, and currently have a little old man rescued Tibetan Spaniel. Have always had them around and feel they truly make everyone's lives a little happier. Available for house-sitting or boarding. Feel free to reach out with any questions. Excited to meet your pet! I'm currently between contract jobs so have a lot of flexibility! Can focus on pets as much as needed and really would prefer it to be a main focus! I'm very responsible -- have taken countless walks as well as extensive experience house/pet sitting. Will be sure to make sure your pets are comfortable, safe, and also that they have fun :)

“Jessica really helped me out when I moved to the area with my separation anxiety dog Kelly. Kelly was a bit nervous during our first visit, since she was so stressed by our recent move, Jessica was very patient with Kelly. And that evening when I went to pick her up, I could see she was almost ready to move in to her house! Running around happily. And for all the following visits, she went right into her home for daycare, without any hesitation. I think that tells me Jessica really treats Kelly well! :)”

About: I have been responsible for dogs ever since I was 10. I have raised four different dogs from when they were puppies to elderly. I can speak their language and an act as an expert dog body language interpreter. I am gentle enough to handle small dogs and strong enough to handle 100+ lbs ones, as well. I recently took early retirement and have flexibility to take care of your pets, whenever needed, on walks, play dates, or overnight stays at my house with my dog. I love dogs! I grew up with Old English Sheepdogs and have had two as an adult. I'm a believer in routine and consistency. My own dog, who is 8 years old, is our fur baby and gets walked 3 times a day, rain or shine. I love being outside getting exercise with him, and keeping him socialized with other dogs and people. We spend lots of time playing and snuggling.

About: Rescue Ranch is 15 acres of forest and fenced pasture to play in. I am happy to host your pets while you are away. Animal love and care is what this farm is all about.

I am retired and spending all my time on the farm and in the woods. Your pet is welcome to join me out here in God's country. I have several fenced acres to play in, forest trails to walk, cable runs, and a warm loving home. I have a German Pointer in the home and 3 Great Pyrenees outside protecting the farm. I will do a detailed interview to determine how I can best meet your pet's needs. I have cared for a large variety of farm animals including assisting difficult births, administering both oral and injected meds, surgery recovery, wound care, suture removal, bottle feeding, wound care, seizure management, etc.

“Out of all the rover sitters Guinness has stayed with I think Irene might be his favorite! He made so many friends at daycare and loved being around her kids! He got lots of love, walks, pee breaks, and playtime. I will 120% bring Guinness back to irene’s daycare! She is so Genuine and loved having Guinness it made me happy! She was very flexible with times and made sure to meet me outside her home which made pick up and drop off seamless. Thanks, Irene!”

About: Grew up taking care of a variety of pets (dogs, cats, and more) for family and friends. Successfully trained each one to read and write ;) Currently working from home with loads of flexibility to schedule time for pups. I love to take dogs on walks, runs, or hikes throughout the day. I try to match the energy of any fury friend. My love and appreciation for animals and pets has really grown through life experiences. Thinking of them first is a fine habit to have. Proper planning and anticipation goes a long way. I got incredibly lucky with my current dog, Dos, who is so friendly and loves new friends to play and hike with.

“Mark and Lester were great sitters for Finn. It was a last minute request and they were willing to care for Finn, share updates and make him feel at home. Thank you!! Highly recommend!”

“Misty was great with my little girl Layla who has separation anxiety. She and her son made her feel at home and when I came, Layla was calm and relaxed. I will definitely use her again.”

“Brittany took excellent care of our two dogs while we attended an event Saturday and Sunday in the Portland area. They got to get their zoomies out and had lots of cuddles and Brittany sent me lots of pictures and videos from their day. I would trust her with our fur children any day!”
