Dog Boarding in Hillsboro

I put myself through school to care for animals because they are my passion in life. I can offer a safe, warm home, with a lot of love to give. I have experience with all different breeds, big and small, and the patience to go with it. Your pets will become part of our family for however long they are with us, and hopefully even after ;). If your pet requires special care or has medical needs, I am experienced in administration of oral and injectable medications and able to identify when pets need medical attention. I am home throughout the day, every day, so your pet will rarely be alone for long. We have different styles of boarding techniques and our number one priority is to safely help your pet feel at home. To feel safe, secure, and loved. I have worked as a licensed veterinary technician for over 5 years and still could not imagine life without my cats and dogs. I run a foster care/ rescue home for cats from my home, and work with local spay and neutering programs in our community. I have two dogs and two cats of my own and the cats are very dog savvy with all visitors. They know from the minute the dog walks through the door if they can be trusted, LOL. My daughter is 10 years old and is understanding and respectful of animals. If your pet is not so fond of kids, we can work around that too. If you have a puppy, this is a great home for obedience, socialization, and consistency. Please consider our family to help care for yours!

About this sitter:

If you have an animal that is too anxious to leave your home, or can't leave your home, I will come to them. I have experience with cats, dogs, rabbits, pocket pets, amphibians, birds, and fish. Being a veterinary technician, I love to care for, and get to know, all animals. I will come care for your pet at least once per day, up to four times per day, to spend time playing with and getting to know each pet. If I am needed to make more than one visit per day, I am available to do that for an additional, but reduced fee.

Why I love dog sitting

I have worked in the veterinary field for over 5 years now and nothing has brought me more pleasure than working closely with families and getting to know their furry family members through pet boarding and care taking. I have been a dog and animal lover my whole life and I went to school to become a veterinary technician so I could work as a trusted professional in our community. I am living the dream currently through Rover!

Meet my pets

We have two female Bullmastiffs. Annie is about 7 years old. She is very friendly with everyone and has never been part of an awkward or dangerous situation. She is the best of the breed and loves everyone, as Bullmastiffs do. She is crate trained and my baby. My other Bullmastiff is Rose, a 2 year old, and has been very well socialized. She grew up in the environment of animals and people coming and going. She thinks that everyone that comes over is here to play with her and she is very much still a puppy at mind and heart. She is mostly obedient, but truthfully has her moments of excitement, and is crate trained.

I have two male cats that are 3 years old. My DSH seal point is Rabbit, Bunny Rabbit Frances to be exact, and our DMH Manx mix is Little John, though not so little. They both are very respectful of dogs and will leave them alone if that is either ones preference. They know the moment a dog visitor walks through the door, if they can trust them or not. If they get to know each other and accept each other, they will groom your dog, if your dog permits it ;)

About my yard

We have just under a quarter acre with a fully fenced back yard. The area is mostly grass with some cement patio present. It is dog friendly with a level playing area and room to run. We also have beautiful walking trails to Hazeldale dog park right behind our property.

My experience administering medication

I am a licensed veterinary technician and have been trained in the administration of drugs orally, IV, SQ, IM, and ID. I am comfortable with any medical concerns if the dog is comfortable with me doing it.

Dog family home near the Tualatin river on a large green acre with a fenced doggy play area. We have horses, cows, goats, chickens, and even a donkey in the neighborhood. It's farm life close to the city. The house is one story with lots of room to hang out, nap, and play with toys. The house has central air for heating and cooling, and the floors are a wood vinyl. We do pet services full time with boarding and daycare services 7 days a week. Most days we have small groups of pups, with an established pack of awesome pups and clients. Our dog Rocky is the host with the most, and loves being the regal leader of his pack. We encourage you to schedule a free meet and greet to come check us out.

We moved to Sherwood!!

We love dogs! Lacey is a lifelong animal lover who is home to care for the dogs full time and will be your main point of contact. Joe often works from his home office and loves to play with the different pups in our care. Joe’s mom Jenine lives with us and loves snuggling with the dogs on the couch. Sherwood Dog Boarding is a place for mellow dogs who like bursts of play with other dogs or who just like to lounge in the sunshine. Your dog will be as well cared for in our home as he'd be in yours, and we will send you updates as often as you'd like. All of our fur friends receive a lot of one on one attention with individual walks around the neighborhood and plenty of cuddle time. Our house has a fenced yard, and the dogs have plenty of room to play inside as well. Our mission is to build lasting relationships with repeated guests, and our regular clients say that their dogs are always excited to come over.

My dog and cat care experience dates back to the 1980's when I was the go-to teen for pet care and babysitting in my neighborhood. After moving to Oregon 10 years ago, my kids and I volunteered walking and providing foster care for rescues at Oregon Friends of Shelter Animals. In the past four years as a Rover sitter/walker, I've served around 200 customers - just check out my reviews! I provide loving, mindful, compassionate care for dogs, cats, and other companion animals. For safety precautions, my policy is to avoid having dogs in my care meet other dogs and humans. The leash is always on outdoors, and dog parks are off limits. I am fully engaged and watchful on walks, and always respect your care instructions. Kindness and love for your fur kid(s) guaranteed <3

Owner works from home and is able to provide your pet with more attention and potty breaks to align with their normal schedule. However if you want me to come in and just feed your pet and not spend time playing with them, I am the wrong sitter! I have had dogs since I was young and my wife and I need to fill our temporary dog love void! We can develop a plan that works for you and your dog to ensure they have the best time possible!

Why I love dog sitting

I have had dogs since I was born and have had them on and off over the years. We unfortunately do not have a dog right now so we are looking to care for them for their owners.

About my yard

We do not have a backyard but rather a very large deck where we can take the dog and stay with them as they get some fresh air.

My experience administering medication

I am very comfortable administering medication having done it many times.

I have over 20 years experience sitting and walking. I grew up with dogs and have a passion and enjoyment being around them. I have experience in training and obedience. I'm well respected among all the clients that have used my service and kind towards all dogs and their owners. I have amazing pictures of my walks and I always include photos of my walks to my clients so they can experience the fun their dog is having. I provide the dog with an amazing time and I receive enjoyment out of it as well. If your pup could talk, they would tell you that they had an amazing stay!!! AS PART OF MY SERVICE I ALSO DO PICK-UP AND DROP OFF OF YOUR PET AT NO ADDITIONAL COST.

About Us

We're a couple living in Tigard with a large, lush green yard that is enclosed by tall trees. Considering our family had two dogs growing up, we love the company of dogs and the joy they bring into our home.

We are both working professionals with a standard M-F work schedule. Your pups are welcome to stay as long as they're obedient, house trained, and accustomed to being home while you're away at work.

Your Dog

Any sized dogs are welcome. We even have experience with older pets who require special attention and medication.

Our Neighborhood

In addition to our large backyard, the big parks of Fowler Middle School, Fanno Creek, and Summer Lake are all within a short walking distance from our home. We frequently go for runs or walks outdoors and would love to take your pups with us.

Our Schedule

During the weekdays, we would walk your pups before work (7-8am), during lunch (12-1), and after work (6-7). We are very flexible on the weekends and have more time to take them on longer runs and walks if they enjoy it.

We look forward to meeting you and your pet!

Ana & Ron

Hi, my name is Misty. I live in a house in SW Portland with my two dogs, Jasper and Olivia. We live on a quiet dead end street in a very dog friendly neighborhood. The house sits on a large lot which is bordered by mature trees, so there is plenty of space to run around. The front yard often serves as a gathering place for many of the neighborhood dogs when everyone is out. It is like having our own little dog park. Gabriel Park is close and often a destination while on a walk.

Why I love dog sitting

I have been a dog lover my entire life. I even toyed with the idea of opening my own dog daycare business and volunteered time working at an existing daycare to gain experience.

Jasper & Olivia

About my yard

The backyard is not fenced in but bordered by natural habitat. The house is located in a hilly area, so the very back of the backyard drops off and is wooded. There are a number of mature trees that border the actual yard. There is plenty of space to run and play. Olivia enjoys having her ball thrown around out back throughout the year.

My experience administering medication

Yes, I am comfortable administering medication. Jasper and Olivia have undergone surgical procedures that required administration of medications following. A previous dog of my had allergies, so I am also comfortable delivering medication through injections.

If your dog feels like a background player in the movie of your life, don't be surprised should you return to find him bonded with his sitter: Because while you were away he was star.
