Alex is great. I’ve booked with her a few times and will keep doing so. My dogs run up to the door of her building when I drop them off. I highly recommend her.

Alma is amazing with my (initially) timid pup, Gambler! He warmed up to her quickly, and he had a great time playing with her dog and going for pack walks in the neighborhood. I got pictures and updates throughout the day, which made me feel comfortable and reassured that he was adjusting to the new environment. He always comes home happy and tired, which is perfect!

Lindsay was great! She gave us tips on where to find vegan food, where we could park our RV as we were going on a whale watching tour. She took Maddie for walks and sent us pictures. Maddie was very comfortable with Lindsay. Lindsay was always quick to answer when we had questions. We highly recommend her.

About: I am home most of the day….providing a warm and comfortable atmosphere. Having lived with several pets over the years any special condition your pet may have (medication, injections or special activity). Will be addressed. I have owned and cared for several 4 legged friends throughout my life each with their own wonderful personality. I will look after your Pet as my own. I have a great walking paths around my home. And a large yard. Your doggie will be part of our family….. I work from home with plenty of time to spend with your pet. My hubby and will enjoy your pets company as much as hopefully they will enjoy ours. Our house is very quiet with few visitors & Easy to fit right in….. visitors. I take only one dog at a time to attend to all their requirements. I love to send photos to keep you updated. Having boarded my own doggie I understand the toll of leaving your loved one behind. Your pet will have and a no worry, safe and fun atmosphere so you can too….

I knew immediately meeting Christine that Lola would love her. You don’t get that good vibe feeling with every rover and it stinks. Christine loved on my baby all day and the pictures she took made my heart burst. I will absolutely use her again if needed!

Annie was fantastic! Winnie is not the easiest of dogs and Annie was gentle and patient with her. She found ways around things that Winnie doesn't enjoy, like being picked up, which is necessary because she can't do stairs.

All I can say is Wow! Thank you for Melissa! We were visiting Maine and had to bring our puppy with us because she was too young for kennels. Melissa knows her dogs and does so well with the different dog personalities. She is positive and loving and cared for our pup like a Rockstar. Bonus: our puppy had lots of playmates and exercise and we got picture updates while we were able to tour and sightsee. We didn't have to worry about her at all.

Our 5 month old puppy moose loved daycare with Emilia! After getting neutered he needed a break from daycare to fully recover. Emilia did a great job at keeping him entertained throughout the day, while keeping a close eye on his stitches. Every night we picked up moose he was so tired from all the fun he had! We will definitely be using Emilia again in the future!

About: I have been an animal owner and lover since I was a small child with my first pet parrot, then cats & dogs, and have been around and cared for all different breeds. I currently have one baby boy named Ham (Apollo is his legal name though). Who i’ve had since he was a puppy and now is almost an old man at 8 years old. My family and friends have frequently relied on me to care for their babies multiple times over the years for various lengths of time and it’s still something I do whenever possible. Whether it’s a hyper young puppy that needs lots of attention and activity or a not-so-mobile senior, I can make sure they get the attention and love needed throughout their day. Will always reward good boys & girls with treats and scratches. I’m currently here in Portland for the summer and have all the free time I could possibly want. My schedule may fluctuate in the future, but I am available every day of the week unless otherwise stated. In my own current apartment, my own dog (Ham) is the only animal here, and we although there is a small area to go outside, we prefer to go on walks. Whether it be short or a good distance to tire him out, I make sure when on walks to pet is the main focus, I don’t walk while staring at my phone. If I am allowed into your home all rules will be 100% respected and followed to a T.

I thought I was a dog lover until I met Sheryl about 12 years ago. She is the best at caring for dogs that I have ever seen! She understands and nurtures them. She possesses qualities of love, compassion and patience. And yet, she can combine that with doggy discipline and a great calmness during unsettling moments. If I ever come back as a dog, I absolutely want Sheryl as my owner! Ed.
