Doggy Day Care in Hillsdale, Portland, OR

“Shout out the Ian. He took my dog in on very short notice, and had no issue with the fact I was 10 mins late to pick her up. (Thanks again)! I appreciate him bunches!”

“Tommy was a great sitter for our puppy pitbull, Mamba! He made sure the environment was right for a puppy, and took extra measures to ensure she had a great first day care experience. He lives and breathes the dog caretaker life, so if you want someone who will pay attention to your dog’s needs and truly care for them, Tommy is your guy!”

“Kristopher was awesome taking in our puppy who had not stayed at daycare before. We had previously tried to take him in to a daycare facility but he was so scared, he would not go in since there were so many loud dogs there. He absolutely loves Kristopher and is always so excited to see him each day we drop him off. One day our puppy got muddy while in his care and he even gave him a bath! We will keep going to Kristopher for doggy daycare as long as he lets us! Thank you so much for being so awesome!”

“Took my 3 year old female GSD to Allen’s for daycare and had a good first time experience. Got to meet the other dogs and see her interact with them. Lots of photos and videos throughout the day, which really helps you feel at ease for a first time drop off. Good to know the dogs are running around getting their exercise. We plan to continue using Allen’s services.”

“Another awesome day with Damon and his doggos. Uki always leaves so tired and happy. She’s still tired the next day and has really blossomed in her social skills.”

“Caitlin was great with my sensitive man! Clearly demonstrates knowledge of dogs with a variety of needs including a range of energy, developmental, and behavioral needs. And Lucy was a total sweety pie as well, my anxious pup felt comforted by her. I would highly recommend Caitlin to take care of your beloved as well!”

“Stephanie is a quintessential earth mother, one of Portland’s best. She accommodated my schedule and was also flexible. She sent feedback as soon as my little dog made himself at home. Whenever I’ve left Pucci alone for an hour he’s absolutely beside himself upon my return When I pick him up from other people friends etc. he has whined and and whimpered and a full body wag and was so relieved that I came back. And when I picked him up at Stephanie‘s, little tiny Pucci just wagged his little tail happily and had his head held high, no whining or crying or whimpering at all. He was just a well-adjusted boy and had had a lovely time I could tail. I think Stephanie will be my person from now on because she and Puccini are friends.”

“Jeremy and Melanie have been great to work with from the very start. Excellent communication, friendly, and attentive. I felt extremely comfortable leaving our pup in their care- and our pup had big smiles and seemed to really enjoy her stay. We have another visit already booked with them. Definitely recommend!”

“Evita was available on super short notice and even made time to do a meet and greet beforehand! Very flexible and communicative while Teddy was in her care. We will definitely be booking with Evita again!”

“Washington loved it at Dahlia’s. She really helped make sure Washington was comfortable and he enjoyed going on walks with Dahlia. Thank you.”

“Makeup had a wonderful time and was good and tired when she came home. I appreciated the photos I got too”

“Cynthia was great with Donut and Shiitake and was able to watch them with short notice. Would highly recommend her for any dog watching and care!”

“Ricki and Tori were excellent caregivers. Lots of updates throughout the day and it’s clear my pup had a wonderful day. Thanks so much!”

“Patricia was so great with our pug, Kiwi! She responded quickly to our messages and we know our dog had a wonderful time. We would love to leave Kiwi with Patricia again in the future!”

“Nancy was incredibly helpful through the entire process of watching Zephyr. She accommodated our long shift and watched Zephyr from 6:30 am to 8 pm three days in a row, always prompt to wake up early and with a smile on her face at the end of a long day. I couldn’t find anyone who was more understanding of a shift workers’ schedule. It was Zephyr’s first time away from her home. Nancy helped us with tips and ideas to make Zephyr more comfortable, even lending a collar diffusing pheromones to help out pup settle in. Zephyr showed anxiety, but with Nancy’s hard work and patience, she showed improvement over the week. Zephyr came home happy and tired every day. Nancy sent pictures and updates throughout the day, which put me at ease, especially with our dog’s anxious tendencies. I HIGHLY recommend Nancy and will be sending Zephyr to her for even more growth through her anxiety.”

“I left my pup in Lisa's care for a very short stint while I had to run some errands during a visit. She had a nice space for Yoda and multiple locking puppy gates to accommodate the dogs, and he was able to settle in even with her other house guests being big dogs.”

About: I have experience with reactive dogs and understand they need to feel safe and redirected when they are in a heightened state. I try to meet pets and their parents where they are. I start my dog’s day with breakfast and potty break around 7 am. I like to walk my dog around noon on my lunch break and play with him. I’m off work around 5 pm and let the dog out for a potty break again after feeding him dinner. I have a fenced yard and a medium sized dog to keep your dog company. I also have a large crate if your pet requires their own space.

“My boxer had a great time with Janki! Everything was easy with drop off and pick up! Hank had asked when he gets to see her again for a visit he had so much fun!”

“Keaton was great! He took care of our 4 month old puppy for an entire day, making sure he had plenty of potty breaks (every hour) and multiple 30 minute walks to get out his energy. He was fantastic with Eggington and made sure he felt safe and comfortable (Eggington took to him immediately!). Greatly appreciate Keaton's care towards dogs and flexibility to work with our schedules!”

“Our pup had her first stay with Andi today. Andi was very pleasant and attentive. Bijou didn't even miss us. She got a couple of walks, ran around the yard and seemed very content and relaxed when we picked her up. Andi was great with Bijou. We are very glad to have found someone we can trust with the care of our pup.”
