Your Dog's Best Friend

Pet care experience

I've been working at dog day cares and providing private exercise, socialization, and boarding for my own clients for ten years. I offer dog boarding in my own home, as well as drop in visits, walking and day care. When working for myself I specialized in dogs with social issues--including fear, aggression, bite history--but I love working with all sizes, ages, and temperaments. It's especially rewarding when I'm able to provide attention and companionship to a dog that has trouble getting past their anxiety or aggression, which might keep them from thriving in a more traditional day care situation, and seeing the dog grow into a well-adjusted happy pup. I also enjoy working with dogs that are well socialized. Building relationships with my canine clients and their owners is very important to me. When your dog is in my care, I'll make a customized care plan based on their needs. If your dog is very active, have no fear. I'm happy to take them for long walks or hikes. Those couch potatoes also have a safe place with me. I can veg with the best of them! Your dog will have constant attention, love and compassion. I am seasoned in reading dog body language, so I'll always be listening to what your pup is telling me. My goal is that all of my clients--both human and canine--are happy. Your dog will leave with a smile on their face and a skip in their step. My repeat clients are always thrilled to come back into my care, even though they miss their owners, and I know your dog will be too! I can't wait to hear from you and learn more about your dog!

Being new to rover, I wanted to seek the best sitter possible for my canine companion. Kenny was the first person I contacted, which quickly ended any further searching. He was able to give my dog a safe, fun and stimulating environment on very short notice. My pup was in such a wonderful mood when Kenny dropped him off, and quickly passed out afterwards; it's wonderful to see a high energy dog sleepy after a long day of fun! Kenny also kept me up to date with pictures and messages, I will definitely be booking with Kenny again!!!

Kenny is awesome. He took our dog for daycare during a huge Portland snowstorm, and was still able to pick him and drop him off for us; we would have been screwed without his help! He's got two great dogs that are perfect for socializing, and he was awesome with keeping us updated. Can't wait to book with Kenny again.

Kenny is very calm and patient with our super anxious doggy. Thanks Kenny!

Rufio had a great time with Kenny. He was very relaxed and happy when we picked him up. I appreciated the pictures and updates on how Rufio was doing. We will be using Kenny again!

Information Kenny W. would like to know about your pet

I need to know about the dog's socialization history, their play style, any allergies, and any medical or social issues. I need to know how your pup does with other dogs, and if they likes them, since I have two dogs of my own. I need to know about their play style and general energy level. I need to know how they are with strangers in my home, on the trail, and on bikes/skateboards/etc. I need to know if they have any "special dog" issues like resource guarding, or leash or barrier aggression. Whatever you think is important, I want to know!

A typical day

As much outdoor time as possible. Parks, hikes, or just the yard, if your dog doesn't mind some mud I don't either. I love going for hikes in Powell Butte Nature Park, if a dog wants to come along. At home, your dog will enjoy two kind playmates. We'll spend time in the yard playing fetch, rolling around and just spending time breathing the fresh air. When we're inside, we'll all be together, and no matter how big a dog is they're always welcome in my lap.
