Dog Boarding Black Rock

“Christina and her pack are wonderful! A lovely family and friendly Dogs. You can see they are totally dedicated to their pets and visiting pets. Nigel was well cared for and I did not worry about him a bit. I highly recommend them and hope to use them again in the future.”

“Had to change sitters last minute right before a flight and Tracy was able to get me set up quickly and easily. Considering the time constraints she was very helpful! Many pictures and updates were appreciated. It seemed like my pup enjoyed his stay. Thanks again!”

“Shelby did an awesome job! Went above and beyond and sent so many pictures. We have a husky and she brushed out her undercoat without being asked. Would definitely rebook with her again :)”

“This was my first time using Rover or boarding my dog, so I was quite nervous. Miriam is great! My dog loved her and it is obvious she cares greatly about dogs. She communicates quickly and is easy to work with. Next time I go out of town, I will book my dog with Miriam!”

About: Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to take care of their pets for nearly two decades. My attention to detail never goes unnoticed and I am confident in my abilities to comfort your pet(s) by making them feel special and safe! I have experience with all kinds of creatures — dogs, cats, reptiles, rodents/ferrets, fish, and waterfowl, at all stages of life. Yes, even your beloved seniors. I’m a parent/caregiver to a child with disabilities and while that does not affect my ability to care for animals, it can limit some of my time due to my child’s day-to-day needs, appointments, etc. I update my calendar accordingly to reflect my availability. With that said, most of our appointments are virtual or in-home and I am a stay at home mom so I still have plenty of time for pet care. I have a large fenced in yard for dogs and I am always nearby supervising. I allow pets on furniture and treat them just like my own when I’m watching pets in my home. Instructions regarding potty breaks, feeding, kennel time, medications, etc., are always followed if given.

About: Hi! I’m an educator who has always had a deep love and respect for nature and all living creatures. As a professional in education, patience, responsibility, structured care, and high attentiveness are built into everything I do. Animals have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. I have had a dog since I was 3 years old—she was my best friend and was by my side until she passed away at the age of 19. When I lived in Turkey, I had two dogs, and I brought both of my sweet girls with me when I moved to the USA. Sadly, they have both crossed the rainbow bridge and are now our little angels. ❤️ Today, our family includes two little dogs and one sweet cat. I have been caring for pets since elementary school and have always shared a special connection with them. Back in Turkey, I actively helped many people adopt dogs, including helping the school where I worked adopt a campus pet. I truly believe animals are family, and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and deeply loved is second nature to me. Why Choose Us for Your Pet? Constant Care & Attention: My husband works from home, and I work from home most of the time as well. This means there is almost always someone around to give your pets endless love, companionship, and attention. Professional Responsibility & Safety: With my educational background, strict adherence to feeding/walk routines, safety protocols, and individualized care come naturally to me. A Loving Home Away from Home: A friend encouraged us to try Rover, and we jumped at the opportunity simply because my husband and I both love animals so much. We treat every guest like our own family in a calm, welcoming, and stress-free environment. Peace of Mind: You will receive prompt responses, clear communication, and frequent photo/video updates so you always know your furry family member is happy and thriving. We can’t wait to welcome your sweet pet into our home! 🐶🐱✨ My husband works from home, and I work outside the home for a maximum of three half-days a week. The rest of the time, I’m home. I understand that every dog is different, and I adjust my approach based on each dog’s personality, needs, and comfort level. For example, I recently cared for a large-breed puppy who wasn’t used to playing with small dogs. To make sure everyone was comfortable and safe, I divided my home into separate areas so he could have his own space while my dogs had theirs. I also moved my workspace next to his area so I could spend more time with him throughout the day. Since he had a lot of puppy energy, I took him on walks more frequently than I normally would to help him get his energy out and keep him happy and relaxed. My goal is always to understand each pet individually and create a routine where they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for.

“We would give Allison 10 stars if it was possible! Allison opened her home to Oliver for 5 days and every day, twice per day, sent a picture(s) and a short update about his day. We did not worry about “what if Oliver would need his pain medicine” because Allison is an astute caregiver and was able to tell when he was feeling a bit stiff and needed a pill. Allison cared for Oliver like he was her own and it was such a comfort to know he was so well cared for while we were away. We highly recommend Allison if you are looking for a kind, caring and knowledgeable dog sitter. We will most definitely be requesting Allison to “babysit” again!”

“Nancy is great with dogs! We have two 14 lb dogs that couldn't be more different. One is 15 years old and a couch potato and the other is 2 with endless energy - they boarded with Nancy for the first time (2 nights) and did great. Her home and yard are wonderful!”

About: Hello! Now accepting new clients fall 2026-longer overnight bookings preferred! For 15 years I owned a loving house/pet-sitting and dog walking business and I grew up on a ranch so have been caring for animals my entire life, also a cat lady at heart! I've also helped my sister with her dog training business. All of greater Bend, Portland (West Valley/Mac/Salem) areas inc. coast to Newport accepted! I'd love to hike or take gentle walks/play fetch with your pups (had two of my own for many years) and as a homeowner myself I will leave your home clean and well-cared for. Longer stays preferred! I work remotely so am flexible on location in Northern Oregon. This means I have the ability to do midday or evening walks. I hike almost daily so either active or mellow elderly dogs are OK but I'm also a huge cat lover! I enjoy caring for multiple pets in one home with different needs. I'm extremely cautious yet friendly with the animals I am caring for. I have a gentle nature that works well with nervous animals however I also believe in positive reinforcement for those pets that like to push the boundary. I am in tuned to dog & cat body language, have years of experience caring for other parts of a home long-term, and as a homeowner myself am very responsible.

“Good experience watching our dog, Annabelle. Chandra kept Annabelle happy and content until we returned. I would not hesitate to book again with Chandra.”

“Bethany was fantastic! Very easy to coordinate and schedule with and she took great care of our beagle, Annie. She had two very lovely dogs that Annie got on with very well. Would definitely reach out her to again for dog care.”

“Philip was a great host for Barley and kept me updated with pictures of my dog and his kids having a great time. He was awesomely flexible on our timing too!”

Brielle D.

“Adrienne was great! She came in last minute during a holiday stay as our regular place was booked up. She took great care of our dog Jade, who really enjoyed her backyard and the company of the other two dogs. We were relieved to have found someone that takes good care of Jade and hope to book her again soon!”

“Pakuna is honestly hands down the best sitter ever. This was my first time leaving my puppy for a couple of days and was very nervous about leaving my puppy but Pakuna reassured me that everything will be ok and that my pup would have a blast. Our pup loved being with her and her pitty. Highly recommend booking her!”

About: I have had dogs since I was young all ranging from puppies to elderly dogs. I enjoy taking them on walks and taking good care of them! I am currently working part time so I have quite a bit of free time to ensure your pets are very well taken care of. I live in an apartment that is very dog friendly. There are 2 fenced in dog parks right outside of my apartment and lots of walking area and parks around me.

“Kassidee was a wonderful sitter got our dog! He came back to us happy and tired from all the play time with her crew. We will definitely book with her again.”

Tyra G.

“Riley was great and my fur baby had a great time playing with her pups. She sent me pictures and updates on how my fur baby was doing. If I end up back in the area and needing dog care again I will be contacting her.”

About: I worked at a pet boarding facility for a 7 years before I moved. I am a fast learner and choose to have the pet accept me before moving on to anything else. I shadowed groomers and vets to be sure the road I was taking would assure me happiness with animals and still plenty of time with my own animals. Working with the boarding facility I learned pets are different without there parents and can act differently around them so learning their likes and dislikes personally is a must for me. I want to make sure Pets and Parents are happy with me as help. I want both parties to feel safe, happy, and well rested when staying with me. I am currently working part-time with a flexible schedule. I would be able to come for an early morning and evening walk or adventure if needed. I have two dogs that are high energy. We often go to parks, take long walks, or swimming during hot days. I do have a kennel and a large vehicle for transport.

“Christina was AMAZING! Bruce is terrified of everything and everyone so I was very worried about leaving him. The meet and greet went great and when I went to pick him up he didn’t want to leave! I could not be happier!”

Jacob L.

“Absolutely amazing our pups loved her she was very responsive and sent us tons of pics and videos which we loved because we worry about our pups when we leave them!! Thank you again for being so amazing to us and our dogs??”
