“Juliann did such a wonderful job of taking care of our beloved dog. She took the time to introduce herself and her lovely family and we got a chance to have Yoda do a meet and greet. Their house was very warm and inviting and they really took to him. They were very thorough with all of their questions and made sure that they were equipped to take good care of him. During the trip they gave us constant updates and photos and we felt very safe that he was in good hands. when we went to go pick him up, he did not seem that enthusiastic to leave, which was both sad but also a great sign of how much fun he was having there. We absolutely would work with them again and recommend them to anyone looking to have their dogs be in safe and loving hands.”
“My favorite place to leave Braza thus far. Very pleasant people, beautiful home with more than ample space. Braza was comfortable while resting and entertained while playing. And when I picked him up he was happy and tired. This will be my first choice when I'm in town hands down.”
“Ashley is AWESOME and took such great care of my Lola while I was on vacation. You can tell immediately her love of dogs and people - such a caring person. Not only did I find a wonderful person to care for my dog, I have made a new friend. I highly recommend and support her.”
“Chloe was AMAZING!! She took such great care of our dog and was wonderful to work with. She kept us updated throughout our trip and our pup loved her time with Chloe and her family!! Would highly recommend her and hope to have her watch our dog again in the future!”
“This was our first stay with Diana and we couldn’t be more pleased! Communication was great from the meet and greet through every step in the process. Diana sent wonderful pictures and videos during the week and our dog had a great time playing with the other “guests.” She was also patient with our dog’s quirks, which is always comforting. Diana was so considerate and diligent about making sure Ellie was safe and happy. We definitely recommend Diana and will definitely request her services again!”
“Tara is awesome! The pups thoroughly enjoyed their stay and didn’t want to leave. They especially had a great time playing with her dogs. Thanks for taking great care of them!”
“Five stars aren't enough for Christine! She watched our two dogs for a week and went above and beyond the entire time. She kept us updated with regular photos and check-ins, so we always knew our dogs were safe and having a great time. I never once felt anxious leaving them behind — and that peace of mind is priceless. We will absolutely be coming back to Christine every time we need a sitter. Highly, highly recommend! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”
“My boys (older doodle and younger dachshund mix) were excited to meet Larissa and I was grateful to see that they settled in quickly. They stayed for 2 days and now I know I have somewhere that they will be safe and taken care of when I’ve got to be away. I received updates that included both pictures and actual descriptions of how things were going with them. If you are looking for a safe, loving, family experience for your fur baby, Larissa is my number one recommendation!”
“Danielle really came through for me at the last minute, I'm so grateful! She was very kind and attentive with my dog, Esther, sending adorable pics and updates. Esther is an anxious girl, but she seemed to relax in Danielle's home, it really put me at ease. Thank you again!”
“We had an absolutely wonderful experience with Kelsi! Will definitely book again next time we need a sitter. She took amazing care of my dogs and communication was great. We got fun little updates and pictures everyday. Thank you!!”
“Stephen watched our dog, Oliver, for us over a long weekend. He and his wife, Connie, were great and Ollie was very happy with them. He was definitely spoiled! We received several photos from Stephen while we were away, which is always nice to see. It was so reassuring to know that he was so well taken care of. We have already booked Stephen and Connie again for our next, longer trip!”
“So happy to have come across Jennifer and Eric before boarding our pup. Seeing photos of him snuggling their kids and knowing he was being loved on all week gave us so much peace of mind while we were on vacation. Thank you guys so much!”
“My Cody stayed again with Suzanne, and this time boarding for 9 nights straight and I couldn’t be happier. My Cody is shy and very reserved, but he had an absolute blast! I got so many picture updates and messages, and I had total peace of mind that Cody is in great caring hands. Suzanne did so much more than I expected and truly cared for him above and beyond like Cody was one of her own pack. Thank you Suzanne, I’m sure Cody misses you and your crew already, and he will be back!”
“I was so happy to hear Millie had a great time and everyone had a great time with her!! Such a beautiful home and beautiful people, we found a loving place for Millie to spend time whenever we visit Portland! Thank you to the family again, Millie and I so appreciate the accommodations☺️💕”
“I feel so relieved that I have someone like Myrna to leave my dog Shanti with when I go out of town! It’s always a really easy process and I love the photos I get while away. I can tell my dog is cared for and happy whenever I return home. Thank you Myrna! - James & Shanti”
“Everything went so well! My dog loved Barbara’s huge backyard and comfy sofa. I loved the great care my pup got, including a chance to sleep in the big bed. Pictures and updates a couple of times a day let me know all was well. Thank you Barbara!”
“Gayle is great. Her whole setup (house, yard, other pet guest, her own dog) works perfectly for my dog. It’s more like he is on his own vacation than just being boarded. Would absolutely use her again.”

“Maleny took great care of our 3 cats while we were away. I didn’t have to worry about a thing. She was so diligent in each of the check-in summaries to address the things I had mentioned as my main concerns. Our cats always miss us while we are gone but I can tell they were well cared for while we were away 💗”
“Kayla was the absolute BEST! She is so thoughtful and caring and went the extra mile to take care of our two cats while we were on vacation. We very much appreciated her great communication. We will definitely call on her again when we need a wonderful cat sitter!”
About: I grew up with a dog, and have always lived with either a dog or cat as an adult. My heart just fills with joy when I am around all four legged friends. I currently work full time as a pediatric medical assistant, but would be happy to come by after work to take care of any sweet dog or cat. Currently do not take care of of animals at my current residence as I am living with family who prefers to be pet free, but I am happy to come to you!
“Javier is a positive and gentle person to have around my old dog. He has been patient with him and has gone over and above with caring for him while I’m a way I appreciated the time he spent with me to help my dog be more comfortable with him. (My dog had a recent trauma.) I recommend him highly.”
“Ana accepted our request last minute and did a great job with our cats. She went above and beyond and even did an extra checkin with them and watered my plants. She even cleaned up after their mess which we didn’t require at all. I would definitely book Ana again for future visits!”
“Sierra was great with our cat, Milo. She even cared for the stray cat that visits us. We really appreciated the pictures she sent us daily; we felt connected to our little family. Sierra was very accommodating to some of the changes we had to make during the booking period. We will definitely book Sierra the next time we need to travel.”
“Ashly did a great job keeping me updated on how the cats were doing. Checking in on them regularly, she even cleaned up after their messes, which I greatly appreciated upon getting home.”
About: I've been called a dog whisperer too many times to count! I absolutely love dogs, cats, and other furry or feathered friends. I grew up with guinea pigs, cats, and dogs. I'm experienced in cage-cleaning, play time, giving medication, walking, and light training. I have pet-sat for several dogs, cats, and smaller friends. I highly respect any rules or training routines you and your fur babies adhere to. As long as I have clear instructions, I will stick to your guidelines. I have friends whose dogs have high-maintenance routines, and I know how awful it is when someone else interferes with those routines. I will love your pets like my own, but I will absolutely follow whatever expectations you set. I have flexible availability this summer. I am a student in an accelerated degree program for elementary education. I have July and August off, which allows me lots of time to become your pets' new bestie! I can care for pets in your home. If you are in need of any other cleaning or home services when I visit or stay at your home, that can be arranged. I also believe in leaving things better than I found them. You won't even know I was there!
“Astrid has checked in on my cat through multiple drop-in visits while I was out of town. Astrid has always gone above and beyond - helping us deter ants from my cat’s food, leaving personalized notes that encapsulate how my cat is doing, and always taking cute pictures. I would highly recommend Astrid for anyone needing cat care”
About: We are a duo who help others with their pets! My name is Desiree, and my partner’s name is Tyler. We are adventurous! Often, we fill our free time with hikes, walks around cities, and exploring parks. I grew up around animals—anything from rabbits, mice, cats, and dogs to some exotics like raccoons. As a kid, I would rehabilitate animals like deer or wild rabbits. I feel we need to look out for our little friends, as the world is hard for everyone. Being kind is important to me. I'm comfortable with giving medicine, or going the extra mile to help upkeep their health, may it be brushing teeth, giving baths, or grooming. Our goal is to provide the best, and perfect routine for your pets while you're away that would match closely to what you would do in your daily life to assure max comfort for your animals.
About: Cats have always held a special place in my heart. In 2019, I raised my own cat from just a few weeks old after his mother left him behind, which gave me firsthand experience caring for a very young kitten and understanding the attention and patience they require. Today, I’m a mom of a happy 11-year-old senior cat, and I recently welcomed a new kitten into my family as well. Being the pet parent of both a senior cat and a young kitten has given me experience with cats at different stages of life, from playful and energetic kittens to older cats with established routines and unique needs. I love building trust with cats and have always felt a strong connection with them. Whether your cat enjoys playtime, cuddles, or simply having a calm and caring presence around, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away
About: I specialize in caring for senior, sensitive, and formerly stray cats. I understand how important routine, consistency, and a calm environment are, and I prioritize communication and detailed updates so you feel completely at ease.
About: Hi! I'm Shealee, and I've always loved cats. I know every cat has their own personality, so I take the time to earn their trust while making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. My love for animals led me to work as an Animal Care Attendant at an animal hospital that offered hospital care, daycare, plus boarding services. There, I cared for cats of all ages, personalities, plus comfort levels. My responsibilities included preparing meals, refreshing water, monitoring behavior, providing individual playtime, maintaining clean living spaces, plus making sure each cat was comfortable throughout the day. Working with so many different cats taught me that every feline is unique. Some love chasing toys or soaking up attention, while others simply appreciate a quiet presence that respects their space. No matter your cat's personality, I'll provide care that matches their individual needs. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your cat. I'll treat your furry family member like my own while sending regular updates plus photos, so you can have peace of mind while you're away. I can't wait to meet you and your wonderful kitty!
About: I have been around animals my entire life, I have two dogs, three cats, a chinchilla and a lizard. Your animals will get the care I would give mine. I have petsit for two dogs for a nice lady for about 10 years. I also petsit 3 cats for a friend whenever she leaves town. I am currently a college student that needs to start making money but can't find a job that works with my schedule. I'm free every night and can make myself available for parts of some days. I can't take care of animals in my own place due to my landlord but I will follow whatever rules you have to the letter. I will take care of each animal to the upmost ability.
About: I’ve cared for my sisters’ cats and have cat-sat for friends in the past. While I’m newer to cat sitting than dog care, I’m dependable, gentle, and committed to following your cat’s routine to keep them happy, comfortable, and well cared for.
“Mickayla took excellent care of our kitties while we were away! She was very communicative and professional, and we loved the updates and photos. She loved on them and played with them as if they were her own, thank you for taking such great care of our fur babies!”
“If I could give 10 stars I would. I’m new to the area and having an anxious dog going through some major changes has been challenging. The first night Mickenzie came over to let him out, Beanie wouldn’t let her touch him and growled the whole time. He wouldn’t even eat a treat that she left in front of him on the couch! Mickenzie was gentle, patient, and communicative through the entire process. The following day she agreed to come out on her own time to meet beanie with me and let him get more acquainted in a safe space with mom. She was kind and understanding even as he barked and growled at her throughout the visit. That night she came back to try again. She took her time, was able to connect, Beanie let her pet him, pick him up, and put a harness on. She was able to let him out to the bathroom and get him back in without any issue other than the time and patience it took from her. Mickenzie is excellent. I HIGHLY recommend her especially for those who are anxious leaving their babies in the care of someone they don’t know. I’m so grateful and will continue to use her as often as possible. Thank you, Mickenzie!”

“I can always look forward to Jennifer giving my pup the utmost care! I don't know how she does it, but he always comes home and goes right to sleep. I haven't known a better sitter. She's the best!”
“Ollie seemed happy while there, according to the pics sent,and just as happy when we picked him up. Shauna has a really dog friendly house and yard, and most importantly Shauna seemed a truly authentic ‘dog person’. We wouldn’t hesitate to leave our Ollie there again!”
“Phillip is very communicative and flexible when it comes to scheduling pickup and dropping off. My puppy came back happy and tired(yay!). I will be booking again. Thanks Phillip!!!”
“Diana D. was so accommodating to take my little Harley at such short notice. When I came back to pick him up she shared with me some simple ways to help him feel more confident. Diana sent pictures throughout the day as well, which helped me get the a long meeting. Thank you again Diana.”
“This was my first time using Tawyna & John P "Clay" for doggy day care, and I couldn’t have been more pleased with the experience. Clay was professional from the start and always prompt in responding to my questions, which I really appreciated. When we arrived, he took the time to give me a tour and patiently answered all of my questions. The multiple levels of fenced kennel runs with bark chips were very well done, and it gave me such peace of mind knowing that both of my Weimaraners were safe and secure. Most importantly, my dogs had a great time! They came home happy and happily worn out at the end of the day, which says everything. I’m so thankful for the care Clay provided and would absolutely recommend him to others looking for a safe, well-run place for their dogs.”
“Danielle was wonderful with our shy, anxious rescue. She communicated well and asked plenty of great questions, was kind and patient, and has a calm demeanor. We weren't able to do a meet and greet in advance since I was traveling through, which made it even more impressive that my pup warmed up to her right away and relaxed so quickly. Responsible, professional service. Highly recommend!”
“Shelly has been taking care of my 6 month old lab pup for a few weeks now. She has an excellent facility, including some air conditioned stalls for resting during hot summer days. She does a superb job caring for my pup and even helps with some of her behavioral training. I greatly appreciate her efforts and the helpful advice she’s given. I highly recommend Shelly if you’re looking for someone to care for your 4-legged family member.”
About: My wife, Connie, a retired nurse, and I have had six dogs over 35 years. We miss them dearly. I have raised dogs from puppyhood through their senior years so I understand the patience, structure and affection that go with it. I am retired from my legal practice of 35 years, and very active. I love long walks and have a nice fenced backyard if pet sitting is needed. Only your dog(s) will be in our care during your booking. Whether your pup needs long walks, gentle companionship or just someone who treats them like family I’m committed to make them feel safe, loved and genuinely cared for. After being self-employed for 35 years I am looking for something to keep me busy and I can’t think of a better way to spend my time. I have a very flexible schedule and basically available 24/7. In my home I will provide a warm, clean environment, plenty of attention and lots of outdoor activity since I’m active and retired, with plenty of time to give. Your pup will also be the only one I care for during his/her stay…
“I cannot say enough wonderful things about Kelsi! From day one, it was clear how genuinely caring, patient, and attentive she is with my puppy Lucy. She treats her like her own, making sure she’s safe, happy, well-exercised, and loved. I always receive great updates and photos, which gives me total peace of mind knowing Lucy is in such good hands. Her reliability, communication, and obvious love for dogs truly sets her apart. I am so grateful to have found someone I trust completely and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for exceptional care for their dog—especially puppies!”
“We were in town visiting wine country and couldn’t bring our pup on the tour so we found Suzanne bc of how highly rated she is and how many regulars she had. Our dog had a great day and Suzanne communicated often which made us feel really secure. Highly recommend!”
“Lauren was great! She was flexible & accommodating, loved on our Tucker dog, who can have high separation anxiety, and communicated with us through the day to let us know how he was doing and to verify any concerns. It was a blessing to have her watch him for the day, allowing him to join us on this trip but to know he was in good hands while we completed activities he could not join us for. We would definitely use Lauren again!”
About: Are you worried your fur kid is bored while you are at work? Do you have a trip where dogs aren't allowed? Do you have an only dog child who seems lonely? I'm available to check in on, cuddle, and treat, at your home, or daycare in my home with my well-behaved dogs. I have a big escape-proof backyard and lots of time to spend with all the fur kids. While at my house, dogs are allowed anywhere they want to sleep. I am also available for pick up and delivery for vet visits, and groomer appointments. I've 30 years of experience working with dogs as an owner, breeder, therapy dog partner, and rescue group director. I've pretty much seen it all with small dogs. I also have experience with big birds (cockatoos, macaws, African gray and South American parrots, and cockatiels). I love almost all animals. I'm retired and so can pretty much fit additional pet care into my daily schedule. I've managed multiple pets for many years, including Japanese Chin rescues, who often had special physical and emotional needs. I have a large fenced yard and friendly dogs for your's to play with at my house. If I come to you, I will spend enough time to make sure your fur kids are happy. I am gratefully retired so I'm home all the time. My husband is retired too and serves as the assistant caregiver as well as the chief petting officer. I'm an early riser and he is a late-night guy so your kids are covered with an awake adult about 18 hours a day. I have a secure, double-fenced yard, a large house with lots of beds, and plenty of time for cuddling. My house is entirely dog-friendly, with hardwood floors and a special room for feeding the furkids.
About: Quiet country experience whether you would like to run or just be cozy on the couch with a fire in the fireplace we are here for you.

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover and a proud dog mom to my Mini Australian Shepherd, who has taught me so much about patience, training, and providing loving care. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I treat every dog as if they were my own. Whether your pup loves long walks, playing fetch, learning new tricks, or simply relaxing with lots of cuddles, I’m happy to tailor my care to what makes them happiest. I believe pets thrive with consistency, patience, and plenty of affection. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness will always be my top priorities. I’ll make sure they get the exercise, attention, potty breaks, fresh water, meals, and love they deserve while you’re away. I’ll also send regular photo and video updates so you can relax knowing your furry family member is in good hands. I know how much our pets mean to us because I feel the same way about mine. I can’t wait to meet your furry family member and give them the same care and love I’d want for my own!💜 I do have my own dog, Samson, who is a very friendly and gentle dog. He is not aggressive and is used to being around other animals. For any overnight stays or daycare, I make sure all pets have a safe, comfortable environment and that introductions are done slowly and appropriately. I always prioritize each pet’s individual needs, comfort level, and safety while they are in my care. I do have a fenced yard and a friendly dog to keep your fur baby company. I can easily crate your dog if needed. I treat every pet like they are part of my own family. I focus on creating a safe, calm, and comfortable environment where pets can feel secure while their owners are away. I follow each owner’s instructions carefully, including feeding routines, medications, exercise needs, and any special preferences their pet may have. In my home, I make sure pets have a clean space, plenty of attention, playtime, and opportunities to relax. My own dog, Samson, is friendly, gentle, and not aggressive, and I make sure all introductions are done slowly and safely so every pet feels comfortable. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and maintain their pet’s normal routine as much as possible. My goal is to provide dependable care, patience, and lots of love so owners can have peace of mind while they’re away.

“Maleny is an amazing addition to my dog's life. His size doesn't intimidate her, she handles him easilly, and he has decided that she is his best friend. I'm completely comfortable sending my baby boy off to adventure with Maleny. She is also very accommodating and flexible. If I need more time to get Larry ready before his walk Maleny doesn't mind moving the walk time. I already have requested for Maleny to walk Larry through February.”

“Stephen was absolutely amazing with Cosmo! From the moment they headed out, it was clear he was patient, attentive, and really understood Cosmo’s personality.

About: I have grown up being surrounded by dogs! My dad always had dogs in our home.

“Astrid took great care of my pups and helped them be secure and happy while I was out of town. When I’m in town and she walks them, I can tell by the way they greet her what a big treat it is for them to spend time with her. I appreciate Astrid’s sensitivity and creativity and skill in interacting with my two dogs who are quite different from one another in energy level so that they both get their needs met for activity and exercise and affection.”
About: Hi! I'm Shealee, and I've always had a heart for animals. I've been around animals for most of my life, and my love for caring for them eventually led me to work as an Animal Care Attendant at an animal hospital that offered hospital care, daycare, and boarding services. In that role, I cared for dogs and cats of all ages, breeds, and personalities. My responsibilities included preparing meals, taking pets on potty breaks, maintaining a clean and safe environment, supervising daycare playgroups, and caring for boarding pets while closely monitoring their health, behavior, and comfort.

I maintain clean spaces, follow detailed care instructions, and communicate consistently to ensure peace of mind.

I have a rescue dog of my own (Tina!), and we love long walks, fresh air, and new adventures. I know firsthand how stressful it can be trying to find the right person to care for your pets - that's why I go above and beyond to give my clients peace of mind!

About: I grew up with three dogs in my house, and many more coming in and out. I have lots of experience with many different breeds, ages, and temperaments. I got a COVID puppy in 2019, so I also have experience with training high energy pups! I truly love all animals and would love to help your family out where I can!

In my own home, keeping up with diet, exercise, and training is important for my pups.
“Kaylie did a wonderful job taking my Piper for her daily walk - with the hot weather she adjusted the schedule so it would be more comfortable for her and Piper ... sent me great photos of them and updates on how the walk went. I felt very comfortable with her in charge of my "girl". Thank you for taking such great care with her!”
About: Ever since a child I have had an undeniable bond with animals. I’ve worked with all types, birds, horses, dogs, cats, livestock, exotic animals, you name it. Growing up my family was always pet people and they’d say I’m more of a pet person than them all! As a previous rancher, I have tons of experience with medications, veterinary care, and pet care for all species. As an entrepreneur I have all the time in the world for my pets and yours! My schedule is almost always free and ready for you! I own a beautiful 6 year old working line German shepherd, so I specialize in high-energy and protective breeds. I understand their drive, structure, and need for leadership. My goal is to keep your dog mentally fulfilled, exercised, and emotionally secure while maintaining the training and routine you’ve built. I also have experience with low energy dogs, training puppies, and even whelping litters! Pet care is my full-time job, so I have a very flexible schedule and can provide consistent attention and care. I’m available for boarding, drop-ins, and walks throughout the week, including weekends, with plenty of time for play, exercise, and companionship. I focus on personalized, attentive care in a calm, clean, and secure environment. I maintain your pet’s routine, monitor behavior and health, and provide mental and physical enrichment. Owners receive regular updates and photos for complete peace of mind.
About: I’ve cared for pets of all ages — from playful puppies to senior dogs needing meds and extra TLC. With experience in both in-home pet sitting and welcoming pets into my own home, I’ll treat your furry family like my own. I currently work full time, however I have a short commute that allows me to be home with plenty of time for walks and play after work. I have weekends off and would be home most of the day for any weekend stays. I have a mostly fenced yard and will always be with them when outside. I can easily crate your dog as well if that’s how they feel most safe when home by themselves.
About: I've always been an animal whisperer, with animals of all type. I grew up on a farm/forest, and befriended wild animals on a regular basis, as well as our domesticated dogs, cats, chickens, ducks, goats, pigs, horses etc. Since then, I have volunteered for animal shelters, continued befriending all animals I meet, honed my skills with consciously working energy between animals/humans, even learned some animals massage. And currently have friendly dogs, cats, goats, chickens on the 62 acre farm. We also have private areas for your pet, away from other animals. We have multiple people on land, and care is upon self or 2-3 others. We allow only one inside house dog at a time and 2-3 in our shaded outdoor pens. We have fenced areas, some outdoor pens, and some animals of the right nature are allowed inside the home, if that is welcomed by their owners/their demeanor is right, during times of extra special personal attention.
About: I've had dogs, cats, fish, hamsters and birds for the past 40 + years. I want this experience to be a great one that is stress free for you and your animals. If they are use to a certain routine eat at a certain time, walks ect. Please let me know. I will treat them like they are my own. I am available for holidays and last minute trips I would love to care for your fur kids. I have lots of love to give & would love to spend time with them. I can adapt to any situation. I'm here to make your animals experience go smoothly. I know us humans can experience anxiety & I feel that animals feel the same thing (I believe). I will do my best to make this experience great for all of us. I am good at multi tasking. I will give 110%. I will always make your animals a priority when I'm watching them. I want this to be a great experience for all of us. I will care for them like they were my very own. I will follow your pets normal routine and do my very best to keep them on their normal schedule. I want them to feel like it is when the owners are at home with them.

“Chloe was AMAZING!! She took such great care of our dog and was wonderful to work with. She kept us updated throughout our trip and our pup loved her time with Chloe and her family!! Would highly recommend her and hope to have her watch our dog again in the future!”
“Tara is awesome! The pups thoroughly enjoyed their stay and didn’t want to leave. They especially had a great time playing with her dogs. Thanks for taking great care of them!”
“Five stars aren't enough for Christine! She watched our two dogs for a week and went above and beyond the entire time. She kept us updated with regular photos and check-ins, so we always knew our dogs were safe and having a great time. I never once felt anxious leaving them behind — and that peace of mind is priceless. We will absolutely be coming back to Christine every time we need a sitter. Highly, highly recommend! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”
“My boys (older doodle and younger dachshund mix) were excited to meet Larissa and I was grateful to see that they settled in quickly. They stayed for 2 days and now I know I have somewhere that they will be safe and taken care of when I’ve got to be away. I received updates that included both pictures and actual descriptions of how things were going with them. If you are looking for a safe, loving, family experience for your fur baby, Larissa is my number one recommendation!”
“Stephen watched our dog, Oliver, for us over a long weekend. He and his wife, Connie, were great and Ollie was very happy with them. He was definitely spoiled! We received several photos from Stephen while we were away, which is always nice to see. It was so reassuring to know that he was so well taken care of. We have already booked Stephen and Connie again for our next, longer trip!”
“So happy to have come across Jennifer and Eric before boarding our pup. Seeing photos of him snuggling their kids and knowing he was being loved on all week gave us so much peace of mind while we were on vacation. Thank you guys so much!”
“I was so happy to hear Millie had a great time and everyone had a great time with her!! Such a beautiful home and beautiful people, we found a loving place for Millie to spend time whenever we visit Portland! Thank you to the family again, Millie and I so appreciate the accommodations☺️💕”
“Gayle is great. Her whole setup (house, yard, other pet guest, her own dog) works perfectly for my dog. It’s more like he is on his own vacation than just being boarded. Would absolutely use her again.”
“Great experience! Communication was excellent, Liz answered all my questions and did a meet and greet before pups stayed with her. She clearly cares about the dogs and their well-being”
“Great Experience! My pup immediately felt comfortable at Kris' place. We got adorable pics and updates. Most reassuring is my pup came home calm and clean. That says alot about the environment he was in. He felt like part of Kris' family. Thanks 😊”
“I’m so grateful I found Julie! I was nervous to leave my sweet girl with anyone since she has been struggling with some health issues. Julie was the best person I could’ve chosen. She was very understanding of my situation, of my dog’s health concerns and everything. She was very responsive and kind. My sweet girl had an amazing time with Julie and her family-she honestly didn’t seem to want to leave! She was happier and more energetic than I’ve seen her in a while. So grateful for Julie for offering her home and her care.”
“Kind and caring. Our dog bolts right inside like it’s her second home (we try to tell her it’s not). She loves Ron’s dog Emma, which seems to really help with having a companion dog there with ours to keep her company while boarding.”
“Finley had the absolute BEST time with Manisha and her family. They showered him with love and attention and sent many many pictures and videos to let us know how he was doing. We had complete peace of mind while we were away. Thank you, Manisha!!”
“My dog was absolutely spoiled with love by Katie and her family! I had never boarded my dog before and was nervous, but instantly had my mind put at ease by Katie! She sent photos of him getting snuggles and attention, looking so so happy! She made him feel so comfortable and at home! Highly highly recommend, she’s the best!”
“Hailey and her family were wonderful with our dog, Porter. He does much better in a home environment and they treated him like part of the family. 😀 We will definitely be booking again!”
“Jean was a loving caretaker of our pup while we were out of town! He got plenty of snuggles and attention. Loved that Jean sent us lots of picture updates!!”
“Our dog loves it here! Amongst Jade’s select posse of sweet pups, Truffles always makes new friends and renews bonds with old ones. Plenty of room to roam in Jade’s back yard too!”
“Allison was really easy to work with. Her and her family took good care of my dog and responded timely with updates when I checked in. I would gladly work with her again in the future.”
