We love all dogs and understand that some dogs don't get along well with others. Unfortunately, we can only accommodate dogs that are friendly to other pooches. Our dog, Jackson, is a great dog companion for those who are shy, or need a little coaxing to come out of their shell. He is confident and calm and does not get in other dogs faces. We love active dogs and are used to exercising Jackson (running, not just walking) 1-3 times a day. We welcome older or arthritic dogs, as well, and can go as slow as needed for their comfort and health. We understand that it's hard to train your dogs to be "perfect," especially if you adopted them as an adult. As long as you are aware of your own dogs behavioral issues, we are more than happy to work with them while you are away. Lily has experience working with dogs at the Oregon Humane Society, where she volunteers, as well as doing basic training with dogs. Does your dog love fetch? Excellent! So does ours! We go to the park at least once a day to play fetch. We ask that you let us know ahead of time if your dog is not good off leash, as we sometimes go to dog parks that are not completely fenced.

Lily works mornings, and Becca works in the late afternoons, so your dog won't be left alone for long. Walks are given in the morning, and then an outing of some sort (dog park, river front or school yard nearby) takes place in the afternoon or early evening, with another walk later in the evening before bed. If your dog is crate trained, we can accommodate your crate as well. On weekends, we like to go to Thousand Acres dog park, Chimney dog park, or on a hike somewhere in the surrounding wilderness.
