Aaron was great! Flexible drop off and pick up times. Lilith got to play with other dogs while there and was exhausted when she got home. Will definitely book again!

Wow - we cannot say enough good things about Viva! From the minute we booked our day care visit, Viva was communicative, detail-oriented, and attentive to our Nova’s needs. We were blown away by her kindness and communication during the booking, and we just loved all the adorable photos of our girl! Nova came home tired and happy, clearly having spent a wonderful day with her new friend. We appreciate you so much, Viva!

Alma is amazing with my (initially) timid pup, Gambler! He warmed up to her quickly, and he had a great time playing with her dog and going for pack walks in the neighborhood. I got pictures and updates throughout the day, which made me feel comfortable and reassured that he was adjusting to the new environment. He always comes home happy and tired, which is perfect!

Gwen was great! We took a last minute holiday trip to Portland and she was able to watch our dogs last minute while we tooled around the city. She lives in a cute, very clean condo about 10 mins from Old Port. Picked up two very happy pups!

I am so grateful to have found Nicholas to help care for my 4 m/o puppy. I adopted her as a stray rescue and he has provided the perfect family home setting to keep her safe and happy during my long shifts working in a hospital. He is always quick to respond, and it means so much to not worry about her while I am at work. Most importantly - she is always excited to arrive, and so content and exhausted when I pick her up at the end of the day. To anyone considering booking Nicholas, you will not be sorry!!

McKenzie was so friendly, welcoming, and responsive. She helped me out on short notice, was flexible with my extended hours, and Rosie came home tired both days. She preemptively answered any questions I would’ve asked and was a great communicator before, during, and after Rosie’s time with her. It’s obvious how much McKenzie loves spending time with dogs and my Rosie clearly loved her and looked so content in the pictures I received.

If you're looking for someone to watch and care for your pets, then you have found him. Tommy puts his heart into everything he does and is one of the best petsitters I've encountered. Considerate, caring, and communicative, you can be confident that Tommy will treat your pets like his own. They will thrive in his care, and you can rest assured that they will receive the attention they deserve when they are with him. Kick your kennel to the curb and reach out to Tommy to care for your furry friends when needed!

Holly was great with our 10 year old rescue lab/retriever -- who is nervous and skittish about new people taking care of her. Holly worked magic, and Lilly had a great day with her. We have no concerns about the longer multi-day-stay coming up next week! We are very grateful for finding Holly!

Lindsay was great! She gave us tips on where to find vegan food, where we could park our RV as we were going on a whale watching tour. She took Maddie for walks and sent us pictures. Maddie was very comfortable with Lindsay. Lindsay was always quick to answer when we had questions. We highly recommend her.

Emma was wonderful and our dog seemed right at home with her. Emma was very responsive to our messages and also send a few pics of our pup to let us know he was happy. While it was a short stay this time, We will absolutely have Emma watch our dog whenever we are in Portland.

Ellie has stayed with Rebecca several times and every time I drop her off, she couldn’t get inside their house any faster. She gets so excited to see Rebecca and her roommates and as Ellie’s owner, I can be comfortable in knowing that she gets tons of snuggles, walks and care. It’s a 10 minute for me to drop off Ellie at Rebecca’s and there are Rovers on my block - seeing how happy Ellie is with Rebecca though, it’s way worth the extra walk.

So grateful for Jackie P! She's super sweet and easy going. She's help so much more than feeding & walking. She trained our puppy too. No more jumping up on people, peeing in the house, crate trained and socialized with other dogs. Did I mention she trained us too.... Consistency is Key! She's flexible, and when we go away she stays at our home. Waters the plants and keeps the house tidy. Love that!! She's a keeper. ..Margaret T

About: I got my first dog for Christmas when I was 5, and have loved dogs my entire life. Dogs really are mans best friend and your best friend is safe and secure with me! I work currently from home and travel sometimes so just reach out and we can confirm that things will work with both of our schedules. I have a 3 story house but we can put up guard rails on the stairs if your friend is not comfortable around them. I like in the heart of downtown Portland so we will like my go on walks downtown to exercise and socialize.
