Doggy Day Care in Centennial, Portland, OR

“Gary and Carol agreed to watch Spettro my blind IG when my regular sitter was out of town! They both were very welcoming, warm, kind, and flexible. They provided a safe home and comforting snuggles throughout the day! Spettro came home happy and tuckered out each day! Spettro will definitely want to go back and visit! Thanks again Gary and Carol!!!!!”

“Julie and Barry are an amazing team ... quickly tuning into Tashi's personality and habits. When we came to pick him up, he was so relaxed and comfortable that he greeted us at the door as if we were visitors to his home, with Barry beside him. Clearly he was treated as family.”

“When my boyfriend picked Gizmo up he said he just seemed like he wanted to stay with Joanna. This is a big deal because he’s super attached to us and we were anxious about leaving him with someone new. Joanna posted a video of him during the day so I knew what he was up to and didn’t have to worry at all. Her house is set up for dogs to be comfortable with a lovely sunroom and nice big yard. Joanna had a good energy that I trusted to take good care of my special boy. I will def be using her again ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ⭐️”

“Mark was awesome, I had a last minute change and he was able to help me and Buddy out. Great communication and follow up. Buddy had a great time. Clean home, friendly and easy to get to - close to the airport if you're flying. I will definitely use Mark when traveling in the Portland area again.”

“Morgan is absolutely phenomenal, five stars are simply not enough!! We needed a super last minute daycare solution for our injured pup and they absolutely exceeded expectations. They were super quick to respond and were incredibly accommodating with our pup’s injury, I cannot recommend them highly enough!!”

“Took excellent care of my high energy puppy, provided lots of pictures and videos of him happily playing in the yard, prompt and communicative. Couldn't have asked for a better person to trust with my kiddo for the weekend”

“Kaila is awesome!”

“Sam was fantastic, very accommodating, and clearly experienced with dogs! Our pup can be very anxious when meeting new people and pups, but took to Sam and the other pup very quickly. She came home happy and tired! Thanks Sam!”

“Alex you are a life saver again, thank you for taking Fumi for me today you are wonderful as always. So good that she had another little dog to play with. I'm going to book you next weekend I just don't know what day yet. I get to take my new Paddle Board out and it would be best if Fumi didn't go until I know how it's going to operate with just me.”

“Emma and Kenzie are incredible and our dogs love them! They go above and beyond to help make life easier for us and even bathed our labs for us. I am so grateful to find such wonderful people who love dogs as much as I do to take care of my pups! I wish I could give more than 5 stars. Thank you ladies for being absolutely awesome!”

“I was worried because our dog is so high energy and was recently neutered. But he had such a great time with Hayley and was so well taken care of. Lots of pics and videos from her too ?”

“Pictures throughout the day, and a sleepy pup each night from playing!”

“Erin was fantastic in every way with my 4 month old Labrador. Haven had a blast playing with the other pups. She got plenty of attention and love! I felt that Haven was safe and happy while being cared for by Erin.”

“Jeanette is a fantastic person! She has three fur babies of her own that she cherishes and loves with everything she has and more. I would have no qualms about leaving any pets (or humans) with her as a care taker. She goes above and beyond to make sure everyone and everything is more than cared for and treated with love and cuddles.”

“Adnan was great with my puppy, Dolly! She spent the full day with him and his dogs, and everyone got along swimmingly. I was able to receive updates and photos throughout the day as well! Looking forward to this being Dolly’s weekly daycare.”

About: Animal lover to an extreme. I have experience caring for multiple animals at a time and am able to keep everyone happy by being vigilant on stress indicators. I have helped deliver several kittens and pups and am comfortable stepping in if needed. I am a Medical Assistant and feel that has helped in situations. I have retrieved several loose dogs and have been able to reunite them with their owners or taken to non kill shelter. Open availability currently, got burnt out on 8 years of healthcare and am looking for a change in pace. Open to negotiations and extra duties. I will care for your pet as if it were my own. I have a rescue dog who has trust issues and am very vigilant about indicators of stress and have always been able to remove my own dog from stressful situations before escalating. Our pets will be kept separate for single time clients, repeat clients will be introduced slowly. After I feel that your pet is comfortable and feels safe I will have dogs meet at parks/ fields with the help of my fiancé and will proceed accordingly. Not all pets get along and that’s okay, we aren’t going to force that and are able to isolate our animals to the second floor if need be.

“Tyler has been amazingly these last two weeks. As a nurse I work long hours and she was so accommodating to my schedule and I really appreciate it. Gia came home tired almost every day and mama needed that after her shifts haha!”

About: 🐾 My Pet Care Journey: I’ve been a proud pet parent for two years to a spirited Mini Australian Shepherd-Labradoodle mix, Chip. My journey with pets began in childhood, growing up with a family dog, and my love for animals has only grown since. 🏡 Experience in Pet and House Sitting: Over the years, I’ve built a reputation as a reliable house sitter for friends from church and work, starting in middle school and continuing through college. 🐶 Special Skills and Training: As a nurse, I bring a unique set of skills to pet care, including the ability to administer medications to dogs. I’ve successfully completed the AKC Star puppy course with Chip, and I’m well-versed in puppy care and training techniques. As a dedicated pet owner and work-from-home professional, pet care is a central and joyous part of my everyday routine. My day is structured to include regular breaks, not just for my own benefit, but primarily to attend to fur baby needs. This routine includes playing with my dog, Chip, in our apartment’s dog park and taking leisurely walks in the nearby large park. The flexibility of my home-based work allows me to be consistently present and attentive to pets under my care, ensuring they receive ample playtime, exercise, and companionship throughout the day. My approach to pet care is holistic, blending my nursing skills for any medical needs, my experience in puppy training for behavioral guidance, and my natural love for animals to provide a nurturing, safe, and fun environment for them. In essence, pet care is not just a task in my daily life; it’s a fulfilling and integral part of it, enriching each day with joy and purpose. 🌳 Home Environment and Availability: Living in an apartment with access to a dog park and a large park nearby, I ensure plenty of outdoor play and exercise. Working from home Monday through Friday, I balance my schedule to include regular breaks for pet care and neighborhood walks. 👩‍⚕️ Personal Approach and Philosophy: My approach to pet sitting revolves around understanding each pet’s routine and making their transition to my care as seamless as possible. I believe in positive training, rewarding good behavior, and gently redirecting any undesirable actions. 🤝 Collaborative and Flexible Care: I’m committed to working with you to determine the best balance of playtime, quiet time, and enrichment for your furry friend. While I’m not a professional trainer, I’m happy to reinforce any ongoing training exercises. 🐾 Our Pet-Friendly Household: My husband and I, along with our sociable and well-trained dog, Chip, are eager to welcome more furry friends into our home. We’re looking forward to providing a loving and fun environment for your pets while you’re away. 📋 Communication and Organization: As a highly organized individual, I prioritize clear and thorough communication. I understand the importance of keeping you updated about your pet’s well-being, and I’m committed to providing timely responses and regular updates, including photos. 🐕 Health and Safety Commitment: Rest assured, Chip is fully vaccinated, neutered, and regularly receives heartworm and tick medication. I extend this level of care and attention to all pets under my supervision. I’m here to ensure your pet enjoys a comfortable, engaging, and safe stay while you manage other important aspects of your life. Looking forward to meeting you and your furry family member!

“With roofers banging on the house, Juno and Polly needed a quiet and fun place to stay during the working hours. They could not have been better cared for. More workers coming over the next two weeks. We’ll reserve our spaces today. Thank you.”

“A tired dog is a happy dog! Picked up my pup and she took a nap as soon as we walked through the front door. Also, a lot of photos, videos, and updates of the pup throughout the day ?”
