Doggie Camp Bed and Biscuit!

Pet care experience

SW Portland near Lake Oswego and Tigard, our home is around 3200 square feet including 800 square foot indoor play area, backing up on Tryon Creek State Park. My husband, Alan and I take care of the dogs. We can also care for special needs dogs that need medication, potty pads and special diet. Safe, stimulating, supervised care for nice, non-aggressive small to medium size dogs. We have a large 1/3 acre fenced in area for the dogs to play and hiking trails out back. I work out of our home as a photographer so someone is always here for the dogs. Dogs can be boarded overnight or just during the day. I like to work on behavior training and tricks for treats for our campers, sometimes they learn something new. Their owners say they get excited a couple blocks away as they arrive and they want to come in and join in on the fun. All dogs mush have a form of flea protection on them and a copy of current veterinarian vaccination records. Small to Medium dogs: $40 per night $25 daycare Dogs 50 - 80 lbs: $45 per night $30 daycare Dogs play in our secure yard. Long walks are available at an additional charge. About this sitter: I have been caring for dogs and other pets for years, I am responsible and detail oriented. Why I love dog sitting I have loved to care for all sorts of animals all my life. When I was a kid my neighbor taught me how to groom and show dogs. I loved spending hours brushing and showing the Bichon's and Poodles in the competitions. I have had a dog or two my whole life. I have also had tropical fish, birds and hamsters. Meet my pets We just adopted a little rescue, Kodi, to share with my 92 year old Mom. He lives at both houses. We are Aunt Sue and Uncle Alan to your dogs! About my yard I have 1/2 acre fully and securely fenced in for the dogs, with a double entrance gate that is kept locked. We have over 1 1/2 acres total property. The dogs can run and play on the lawn and around the bushes and trees, they also have access to a secure deck. I love to garden and spend lots of time outside with the dogs.

Sue was great with our pups! We love the obvious care that she takes making sure that your dog is a good fit, that you're kept informed, that your pups are well cared for, and that your pups have a safe and fun time.

Sue & Family remembered my cattle-dog mix from years ago and happily welcomed him back while I was out of the country. I trust them completely.

Safety, trust & environment

Dogs are treated like they are my own dogs. They enjoy the yard, I have double gates for safety. I keep it locked and customers meet me at the gate. The dogs are never left outside unattended. I always do a meet and greet and trial visits to ensure we have a good fit. I take only non aggressive, small - medium size spoiled doggies. All dogs that stay here need to be fixed, on flea medication and fully vaccinated. I can supply a crate if your dog usually used one.
