Dog Sitters in Damascus, OR

We have taken our dog to them for the past few months and they have been absolutely amazing. No kennels, huge fenced backyard for them to play, and they can roam where they want in the house. Our dog literally runs into their house as soon as we pull up because she loves it so much. I can’t recommend them enough for your doggie daycare or boarding needs!

My dog Molly is 15. In her senior years she is slow and has some special needs. Joyce and Angela go out of their way to make sure she is cared for and every need is met. She loves being there. She evens plays and bonds with the other dogs. When I pull up to their home, Molly can't wait to get to their front door. It is such a blessing knowing she is in such good, caring and loving hands while I'm away.

I stumbled upon Jet Set Pet Sitters when I was in need of both daytime care and boarding while we were in the process of moving. Joyce and Angela are beyond FANTASTIC! They love the dogs as if they were their own. After trying a more traditional boarding facility last summer, I was nervous to leave our pup again. But the home atmosphere and care these two provide exceeded my expectations! Thank you Joyce and Angela!

I like to take my little Yorke here to get socialized. Wow, it didn't take long! He runs right up to the door excited to play with others, unlike the vet or groomer. Joyce and Angela are always cheerful lovely ladies who love the hard work that they do. Thanks for accepting Vinnie into your home!

My dog loves them! It's the closest to being with us as he can get!

Can not even begin to say how AMAZING they are!!!!

I had never boarded my dogs before. Had always had family take care of them while I was gone. So when a trip came up that I had no other choice but to board, I worried if I could ever find a place similar to my own family. Luckily I found Denise Woods, who owns Pampered Pet Lodge in Damascus. She took care of my two show Corgis like they were her own. I chose the indoor living and they thrived there. I came home to both of my boys happy to see me but I knew that they were not frantic to leave. In fact, they took more hugs and pets from them before we parted. There is no other place I would recommend but Pampered Pet Lodge. A++ facility. She is caring attentive, knowledgeable, communicative. Texts are answered immediately. A wonderful feeling for an owner to leave our beloved pets in such good hands.

The only worry you may have leaving your dog with Denise is that your dog may not to go home. I had used other boarding facilities for my German Shepherd that ranged from ok to"never again" so when I found Denise it was a God send. In the past I hated leaving him and never felt like I was fully relaxed while away. With Denise I got daily updates and pictures and when I picked him up he was so happy and well cared for and it was obvious that he loved her and she loved him..

We are so very lucky to have found Denise, who has made her home a home for our fur babies while we are away. We have two small dogs that are older and have gotten to be very picky about how they spend their day. Denise is truly a dog whisperer and from the moment she met them, she was very patient with them getting used to their new space. Denise has built a lovely kennel (with a TV!), covered outdoor play area, and has a beautiful property that gives our dogs fresh air. She was wonderful about sending pics and updates throughout the week. It was the first time I went on vacation and felt calm about being away from my dogs. If you have a special needs, senior, or just a fur baby that needs extra attention and TLC, I couldn’t recommend Denise more.

Denise is AMAZING! She truly loves animals. My regular dog sitter cancelled on me at the last minute, it was about a week before I was leaving for the holidays and Denise was able accommodate my two dogs. One of my dogs had a slight ear infection and required drops and she made sure my dog got them. Denise sent me updates and pics while I was away. Her facility is beautiful, clean and well maintained. I will be definitely be using her again.

If I could give 10 stars I would!! We are new to town and were nervous about finding a new place to board our dog. I was able to schedule a quick tour prior to boarding. Denise checked in daily and took THE BEST care of our dog. I feel like she treated him as if he was her own. You can tell she truly cares for all of the animals she boards. Thank you so much for taking care of our fur baby Denise!!!!

Five days before Easter, we found ourselves making last second arrangements to attend an out-of-state funeral. Finding someone to care for two large dogs, five days before Easter, was going to be a challenge. On the recommendation of a friend, we contacted Denise, who first confirmed that she had the space to take the dogs, then guided us through her intake process. (She can handle several dogs at a time, so she has to be sure that all the animals have all their shots, etc.) On arrival, Denise showed me her setup, including her gate and fence system (so there are no escapes). We then received daily videos of our dogs playing and interacting in the outdoor area of her setup. They were clearly happy and content! Highly recommend this place.

Our cat Charlie developed conjunctivitis in both eyes a few days before we were set to head out of town for 3 nights. I knew getting the drops into his eyes every 8 hours wasn’t going to be possible for our friend who normally comes by after work to check on our 2 cats on the rare occasions we are gone, and the place we were going didn’t allow pets. That left me scrambling to find a boarding place that had availability, would administer medications, and was reasonably priced. Never having had to board a pet before, I was worried about finding a place I’d feel comfortable leaving our cat with, especially when he wasn’t feeling well (and with a stranger in an unfamiliar place with other animals)! But Deneese quickly put me at ease and I felt reassured that he would be in capable, caring hands. When we dropped Charlie off, since she had other cats boarding in catios in her cat room, she set him up with everything he could need in her guest bathroom. This way he wouldn’t be as stressed because he’d have the room to himself. Deneese texted me regularly with updates, and photos and videos to show how Charlie was doing. She made sure he got his eye drops on schedule, and also gave him his oral medicine (Prozac for anxiety) every night. She visited him in “his bathroom” frequently to give him attention, pets, love and treats, and by the time we picked him up on the 4th day, he had really settled in and warmed up to her. I highly recommend Deneese for boarding your pets! She is very thorough, accommodating and attentive. Her rates are very reasonable and she doesn’t add on extra fees per medication dose, and she is very flexible with drop off days/times (it was so nice to be able to pick Charlie up Sunday evening and not have to leave him there until Monday morning, unlike many of the other boarding places I checked into). She not only pampers your fur baby, she pampers the owner, too, by making sure they know their pet is being well-cared for so they can relax and actually enjoy their time away instead of worrying!

Just recently boarded my two dogs for their first time ever and our first experience with Denise at Pampered Pet and there is nothing but good things to say. We were probably more nervous than our dogs to leave them for week, but Denise was very responsive and sent a lot of pictures and videos. Flexible pick up times made it so easy to grab them on our way home from the airport. Overall, the experience was 10/10.

We have left our two Aussies with Denise four or five times now, for as few as four days and as many as 18 days. This facility is unlike any other and Denise has a special way with our dogs - and all the wonderful animals on their beautiful hobby farm. She limits the number of dogs she has at any time. When they have been the only two, she lets them stay in her house with her and the family so they get even more attention. They were never "other dog friendly" until Denise started caring for them, but now they will play with the other guests happily and that has translated to being more friendly with the other dogs in our neighborhood. She stays in contact when we are gone, via text, and we often get pics and videos of the dogs having fun on the farm. Denise goes above and beyond our expectations and hopes. This last long trip, the dogs ran out of their prescription food (our poor planning) and she stood in line to get a prescription for their special food and purchased another bag for them. She also noticed a nodule growing on one of the dogs and pointed it out to us so we can go get her veterinary treatment. The worst thing we can say about Pampered Pet Lodge @ Dutch Heritage Farms is that we sometimes worry that our doggies will not want to come home with us! We have been regularly boarding dogs for 12 years and this is by far, the best home away from home they have ever had! Mark & MJ

Denise was fabulous with our "reactive" dog who is around 8 years old and had never been in a kennel over nite..she spent 2 nites and due to Denise's care and attention did just fine..i would highly recommend her

My wife and I were feeling hopeless when it came to boarding our mini Goldendoodle. It was difficult to find a good location, fair pricing and someone trustworthy to take care of our pup when we were out of town. Finally we came across Holly’s website and were immediately intrigued. We reached out and Holly was so responsive and caring. We got a meet and greet scheduled right away and it went amazing. Holly and her family are so welcoming and easy to communicate with. It has been such a relief to have found Holly and now we always know we have a reliable plan for where our dog will stay when we need help with her. Our favorite part is the daily photo updates we get from Holly when she is watching our dog ♥️ thank you, Holly!

Holly was very easy to work with, responsive to communications, and thoughtful about taking care of my pup. I had a great trip knowing she was in good hands. The daily pics were not only adorable but high quality, too! Will definitely choose Holly again :)

We are so thrilled we found Holly Hearts Animals for our dogs first boarding experience. Holly took amazing care of her needs, gave her daily outings, and spoiled her as if she was her own. My husband and I really appreciated the daily updates & photos of her time in Holly’s care!

This review is long over-due. Holly has been caring for our 4 animals (2 cats and 2 dogs) for quite a while now, and she has been absolutely stellar! She is very communicative and very compassionate in the care of our animals. Pricing is fair. Two of our animals have medical issues and one of our dogs in particular has some mobility issues. Holly is always attentive and ensures our pup gets to play without pushing herself too far (she would play fetch all day if she could). When Holly cares for your animals, you can tell she really treats them like family. I would recommend her 100%. Thank you Holly for all you do for our family! PS: She takes some pretty great photos!

We always feel comfortable having Holly watch our two cats while we're away! Holly is responsive, lets us know if there are any issues, and sends the cutest daily photo updates. She goes above and beyond to make sure they feel loved (and we're updated) while we are away!

We left our pet rabbit with Holly for a week. I knew right away that she was in good hands. Holly carefully went over all the instructions with us before we said good bye and made sure our little bunny had a comfortable set up. Then, amazingly, we got wonderful photos and updates throughout the week. Everyone was having a good time together. We were so grateful to have found Holly to share their home and attention with our little friend. Holly is really special.

Our dog loved her stay with Holly and family so much and it was such a huge relief for us to know she was being well taken care of while we were gone. Holly sent daily pictures which were much appreciated. Highly recommend!

Holly provided care for our two cats for a week. I could tell by the cute pictures she sent each day that the cats were very comfortable with her. She even took care of an ant evasion we had, putting out ant traps we had to keep the pests away from the cat food! She always replied promptly to texts we sent while away. I will definitely use her services again.

Holly has taken care of my kitty a couple times now and has done such a good job. She checks on my girl reliably and sends me photo updates everyday so I feel reassured that everything is ok back home. Vacations are so much more relaxing when I know my fur baby is being looked after. I highly recommend Holly!

Holly has been incredible with our 1+ yo dog, Maggie. Maggie is full of energy and love and needs a lot of attention and play. Holly expertly guides Maggie through her days and always sends us lots of great photos to put our minds at ease. She has been very flexible to meet Maggie’s needs and our busy schedule. Her toddler is great around dogs, just like her mom!

Wendy saved us during our vacation to visit our kids. We brought our dog, but he and our son's dog didn't hit it off. She was able to take our dog in on very short notice, and he had a blast. She is so kind, helpful. She helped save our trip. Kristi McDonald

I can’t say enough good things about Petlandia!! Wendy and Nate are so patient with my nervous pup, Roo. They are amazing about checking in; both throughout the day while he’s at daycare and weekly just to bring up occasional behavioral/health concerns. They both obviously care so much about each individual pup, and tailor their care for each dog’s needs! The Petlandia set up is so fun, and highly enriching for an adventurous pup. We only use their daycare services, but they also offer boarding/daily walks which I’m sure we will look into for future needs too! Grace and Roo 🩵 Petlandia!

We were so nervous about leaving our puppy, other dog, and two bunnies for a week over the thanksgiving holiday. We had Bailey come house/pet sit for us, and could not have been happier! Not once did we feel uneasy about our babies being well taken care of. Bailey was extremely communicative, sent us updates and pics daily, and made us feel completely at ease about not being there. Highly recommended! Lulu

I have used Wendy’s services for both daycare and overnight care and I cannot say enough great things about her! I have a bit of an anxious pup who doesn’t really like playing with other dogs and has separation anxiety. Wendy has done so much to go out of her way to make my dog feel comfortable and cared for. It's not easy to leave your dog when you know she is anxious but Wendy makes it so much easier with frequent texts and photos and by being so gentle and accommodating!

"Wendy and her team took such great care of our pup, both for walks and for boarding. He was an older gentleman who didn't always want to get going, and Wendy and her team let him set the pace. I highly recommend without any hesitation." That was my review from over a year ago, one dog ago. Now we have Oakley, a much younger and more energetic head strong girl who is so very well cared for by Wendy and Bailey. They have so much patience and insight into dog behavior. They use positive skills to coach our little one even when she doesn't want to be coached. Consummate professionals, they leave the dog and home in excellent condition with clear communication and frequent photos to let us know how our sweet one is doing when we can't be home with her.

Petlandia Pet Care is legit just the best. I’ve been working with them for 8-ish years and they’ve consistently been professional, communicative, and helpful. Additionally, words truly limit me in expressing my appreciation for their flexibility now, and especially during the pandemic, as my work schedule was unpredictable and changed constantly. When I adopted my Abbey girl, she was super beat up and had clearly experienced some trauma. Now my sweet girl is an arthritic senior pup, who continues to enjoy her unconditional love and pets and walks and treats with the folks from Petlandia. Thank you for all that you’ve done and continue to do for our pibbs!

Petlandia is wonderful! I have a pit bull/ heeler mix who often has issues with new people. Wendy took the time to get to know her and she is now officially on my dog's best friend list. I feel so much better leaving for work each day knowing that Wendy will be there to work with my dog. She is professional and a true animal lover. I highly recommend her and Petlandia. Your pet will be in amazing hands!

We love Wendy and Petlandia Pet Care! I am so happy we found Wendy to take care of our pups when we are out of town. Wendy clearly loves dogs and she always takes such good care of our two pups. She is very responsive to messages and is flexible with scheduling. She sends us pictures and keeps us updated on how our pups are doing when they stay with her. Our dog was anxious the first time we dropped her off, and Wendy spent extra time with her and helped her feel comfortable. Our dogs love to stay with Wendy and we have peace of mind when we travel that our pups are being well cared for.

Petlandia is awesome! Wendy is awesome! I did daycare at Petlandia with 2 Shetland Sheepdogs and a Shih tzu. One of my shelties was very shy and scared of new things and people. Wendy worked with Tori and formed a bond with her very quickly. My Shih tzu loved the whole area to explore and play with other pups! She always had the best time. Hunter my older sheltie found his comfy spot and napped. My pups had a week stay with Wendy at Petlandia. I trust and love Wendy like no other dog care person!

I have been a client of Petlandia Pet Care for many years and can’t say enough good things about their dog-walking service. They are reliable, and respectful. The communication is excellent and most importantly, my dogs love them and go bananas when they come over. I feel absolutely safe having them come into my home when I am not there and I rely on them to take good care of my dogs. Highly recommended.

My lab Millie has been going to Nightshift Petcare since she was 18 weeks old. Joy helped me train Millie and I attribute much of her sweetness to the time she spent learning to socialize with the other dogs at NSPC. Millie attends daycare 2x a week and there is no where else I would leave her for overnight boarding. Joy is the best of the best of the very best!!!

Joy is the best. My pup probably has a better vacation than I do every time I drop them off. Could not recommend higher.

Joy is fantastic! Totally trust her with my pups! Bonus she’s super funny

Mary Ellen takes the best care of my dogs, so much that the youngest would happily stay there forever. Great pick up/drop off process. Excellent communication and scheduling is easy, daycare or boarding. So glad to have stumbled across her place years ago!

My husband, myself and our pup just moved to the SE area and we were stressing on finding a doggy daycare. We both work all day and didn’t want our pup to be home alone; he has a lot of anxiety & especially separation anxiety. We found Mary Ellen’s daycare and immediately she sounded like a good fit. We’ve been taking our pup to her for about a month now and it’s been going great! We were really concerned that his anxiety would be an issue and that maybe it’d be a bit much for Mary Ellen, but she quickly dispelled those fears. She’s been working with our pup and helping him adjust to the new routine and has been incredibly kind and patient. We’re so grateful to have found Mary Ellen ☺️☺️☺️

We LOVE Wag Along! Our pup has been going there for a while for daycare and comes home happy and exhausted. We've also boarded her there and had a great experience. Mary Ellen is knowledgeable, flexible and reliable, and it is such a great spot for our pup to spend some time each week! Our girl can be a little nervous to leave us (she grew up during pandemic stay-home orders), but warmed right up to going! I know how much she loves it by her excitement when we pull in for drop off & at the end of the day, she usually doesn't want to leave! We consider Wag Along her second family and highly recommend them for boarding or daycare :)

I feel grateful to have found this day care/boarding location for my pup! I’ve brought my pup there for day care and I’ve boarded her for as long as 5 days. My dog always leaves happy and tired from playing with all the other wonderful dogs. I trust that Mary Ellen keeps a watchful eye over all of the dogs while they are under her care. Mary Ellen is excellent at communicating with me and I feel 100% comfortable leaving my puppy there. I would highly recommend!

Mary Ellen is the best. We always leave our dog with her when we're away and have been doing so since 2016. As soon as we pull up outside her house, she starts whimpering to get out and join her friends. Mary Ellen has two dogs of her own, Margaux and Rou, both wonderful golden retrievers who our dog adores. They're kind of like benevolent older siblings to her. I often think our dog has a better time than we do — home away from home!

I took my anxious 1 year old puppy to Wag Along to try to help with her separation anxiety and socialization. Mary Ellen took extra good care of her and within a few weeks Bootsy was more confident and well behaved and she loves going to see Mary Ellen and to play with the other dogs. I appreciate how very easy drop off and pick up is, and that my pup is still clean at the end of the day. Mary Ellen is kind, responsible and the price is right.

We’ve taken our energetic 1.5 year old heeler Sylvie here since the beginning of the year, been a very positive experience. Space-wise it’s essentially a house & yard, rather than the typical warehouse type areas of other doggy daycares. We appreciate the fact that the owner, Mary Ellen, has been doing this a long time and is very hands-on – it’s good to know our pup’s with someone experienced & who really cares about both the animals & how things are run. She’s flexible and the whole process has been super easy. Price is pretty standard. Our dog is fairly high strung and at first she had a lot of anxiety about being left there. But after a little while she got over it, now it’s fun to watch her excitedly run to Mary Ellen & all her doggy friends in the morning. I think the daycare has actually helped out her maturation process. Mary Ellen sends video clips and/or photos during the day showing them playing & lounging around, which is fun for a doting dog parent like me. The pup comes home happy & tired. We just do part-time right now - to socialize Sylvie & keep her company while the humans work, also to create a familiarity in case we ever have to board her there sometime for travel. Highly recommended.

We love having our Sully with Mary Ellen. We never worry about him when he’s there. We use daycare and board with her when we are out of town. He is always excited to see her and she takes such good care of the pups in her care. Recommend her 110%.

Mary Ellen takes such good care of my baby, I never worry at all when she’s there. My dog was super timid before she started going about a year ago and now she’s so happy to go see her friends each time. Mary Ellen watches a nice variety of sizes and breeds, so she’s exposed to all kinds of dogs, which is helpful for the real world. I literally don’t know what I would do without her. We love Wag Along!

Mary Ellen is amazing, I’ve been trusting her with my dog for a while now. I recently used her for boarding, and she went above and beyond when taking care of my dog. I had to drop off my dog right after being injured and Marry Ellen took her with out hesitating. She gave her her meds and cared for her like I would have. She even sent me frequent updates and pictures to help ease my anxiety. I truly don’t think you will find a more caring pet sitter in the Portland area!

This is the second time I’ve boarded my dogs with Lynda. I have confidence they will be safe and loved just like at home. I appreciate her great communication during their stay when I call to check in, and highly recommend her as an awesome dog sitter.

We took our dogs for an "evaluation" before we boarded them. To see if they "passed", they told us that our German Shepard totally "shut down" when she was with other females. Didn't even try putting her with males. So they (two Chihuahuas had other issues" They never once suggested that the get German Shepherd should not be near our beloved and therapy dog Morgan. Who was obviously a female....I told them that the German Shepherd and Morgan can't be together. They claimed they were dog professionals...the very next day, our German Shepherd killed our precious Morgan, in 8 seconds....thanks....

Personalized care and attention for each pet that lives there or visits daily for day care. Some choose Just Like Home in Oregon City to Board their Family Pets while vacationing ,and are confident of the care their dear Family member will be receiving. No worries. Your Pet are in Really Great Care

Our cockers Willy and Molly love it there and frequently hang out with Lynn and the gang! Nap time 😀 …

My dog came home happy and exhausted after his first weekend. Just Like Home cares, is fun for my dog and reasonably priced for me.

They do no offer the services that are advertised on their website, where clear sizes and descriptions are printed. When I brought this up, the reply was "No, Thank You" and hung up, not offering any explanation. Very unprofessional in my opinion.

Great service and all dogs there seem happy and healthy.

My cutest puppy in the whole world stays here anytime we have to leave her.

Lyn takes excellent care of our miniature dachshund.

Great place to leave my older dog for the weekend.

When we board our dogs with Nature's Acres we can travel with peace of mind that our pups are taken care of. We have a dog that can't be in the same space with other dogs- they have special kennels that actually provide better socialization than what I can do. The staff take special care to follow prescriptions and feeding instructions. We've used both overnight boarding and daycare when we travel or night our dogs out of the house. If there is ever a problem they call to follow up. We trust them with our babies. These are truly dog people. Big thanks to the staff on behalf of Rose & Dexter

5/5 Stars! Highly recommended!! Quite the gem located in Damascus. We've been taking our lg English lab here for many years and have always had the most excellent experiences! The staff is always friendly, professional, and experienced. Very well-priced, especially for the quality of services received. They offer over night kenneling as well as day care and baths too! This time we took our shy/timid 1st time boarder, our small border collie mix for an overnight stay as well, and we weren't sure how she would do. The staff there went above and beyond to make her feel comfortable and at-home. Both of our family companions enjoyed their stay there, and will definitely be returning! Thank you Natures Acres!!

I recently boarded my 2 dogs with Nature's Acres for 10 days. I was very impressed with how friendly and attentive the staff was. I was pleased with the facilities as well. I felt like my dogs were being well taken care of while we were on vacation. Thank you!

I had never used a boarding service before this. I had to, very last minute, find boarding for my young Doberman. Luckily they had a cancellation and were able to fit us in. I was extremely impressed with the facilities and the staff. The staff were all very kind and knowledgeable. They seemed to actually enjoy working there and genuinely love the dogs. The facilities were incredible!! It was a huge area completely fenced in and I loved that the dogs were all free of collars and leashes. They had a very detailed form to get to know the pup and how to handle him, it was fantastic as he has dietary restrictions. I will 100% use them again.

If you are looking for a wonderful place to take your dogs, look no further than Natures Acres. Lexa and AJ are the best hosts you can ask for. They are always friendly, helpful and kind to both you and your furry friends. They go the extra mile to make sure your dogs are happy and comfortable. Natures Acres is a highly recommended destination for any dog lover.

Our four dogs love coming here! We're pretty sure our husky-pyrenees mixes would move-in fulltime if we let them. We have a unique perspective, because Natures Acres boarded our large dogs for two consecutive months when we first relocated to PDX from NC. We visited our dogs every weekend and they always looked perfectly happy and healthy. Since then, they have kept our whole pack two more times, including for a recent two-week stint. All of the employees here are so kind and genuinely dog-lovers, which means the quality of care is top-notch. And every time we visited, we noticed there were constantly people cleaning thorough-out the facility. We felt confident leaving our pups in their care and Leela, Bo, Bandit, & Ernie are looking forward to their next visit!

Super nice and smart dog people run this place. Affordable and conscientious. Our german shepherd is good dog, but also a handful and she was loved by the staff. We did learn our dog can jump 7' fences (twice) so they moved here to a more secure kennel. Highly recommended!

Natures Acres has always been nice and very accommodating. Easy to work with and a great staff. Monty is a high energy cattle dog and they have no problems taking care of him. On our most recent stay our flight was delayed and we couldn't pick Monty up as scheduled. The staff at Natures Acres was nice enough to let us pick him up the next day, on a holiday when they were closed. Thanks for your help!

This place is great. The staff are really amazing with the dogs. Ours dogs are always happy to stay! Highly recommend for their boarding.

Terrific place to take your dog and am beyond appreciative for how the staff takes care of and interacts with our German Shepherd Oakley as he can be a little difficult. The staffs attention to detail and how well they take care of the animals and facility is top notch. Would recommend this kennel to anyone!! Thanks to all at Natures Acres as I sleep well knowing all of you are taking great care of our boy!!

We highly recommend Ginger Matyas for pet walking and sitting services! For the past couple of years, Ginger has cared for our beloved 12-year-old Labrador, Cash. It's clear how much Cash adores Ginger through her enthusiastic greetings her upon arrival. We are particularly grateful for Ginger's attentive care, especially with Cash's recent health issues. From administering medication to tailoring her walks and providing updates after each visit, Ginger's thoughtful and expert care is so appreciated. Photo credit to Ginger Matyas.

Ginger is the cat whisperer! Having hired other pet sitters, I did not expect the level of care, and play Ginger gave to my babies. Highly recommend!

Ginger is the best! I have 2 cats, one of them needs medications once a day. She is so loving and caring with them, and they love the "catnip parties". Having the peace of mind that they are well cared for while I'm out is priceless. I strongly recommend her services.

Ginger watched our dog Ellie, which is no small feat. Ellie is an extremely active cattle dog who demands activity. Ginger was up to the task and they fell in love with each other. Ginger is so caring and kind with animals it is really a beautiful sight to see. She really connects with all animals. Ellie was happy and well cared for and we have used Ginger numerous times since then. Ginger is the BEST!!

I want to give a huge shout out to Ginger Matyas. We have been using her to watch our two kitties in Manzanita for a few years. Ginger is a true gem! She takes great care of our kitties and lavishes them with attention. She takes and sends the best photos too! Your fur babies will love her!

Ginger is absolutely wonderful! She loves cats and knows how to give them exactly the attention they need while we're away. Our cat is very shy but Ginger was patient with him and now he comes out to play with her, which is very rare for him. She has also given us great advice and resources. She's prompt, kind, communicative, and great with cats. Couldn't recommend her more highly!

Ginger is the absolute best! She goes above and beyond for not only our cat, but for us and our home as well. We receive updates every visit which keeps us at ease, as we have an extremely shy boy. He finally opened up to her, which is a testament to her knowledge, skills and patience - now he loves when she stops by! Ginger is also more than just a cat sitter - as first time cat owners, she's provides great tips, from toys and treats to vet recommendations. Could not recommend her enough!

I knew my cat would be well taken care of after meeting Ginger. She is fantastic at what she does and is truly passionate about taking care of fur babies. I can’t recommend Ginger enough. You’ll get all the pictures and videos you need to feel better about being away. And she has great recommendations for pets supplies in the area.

All I can say is WOW - Ginger was amazing with my 2 cats when I had to go out of town. I am new to Portland and was nervous about finding someone to have come watch my cats for me in my home while I took my first trip out of town. I now have no qualms about future trips because I know my cats will be in great hands with Ginger and her team every time. She brought over toys and played with them and sent pictures/videos every day which was so great. I would 1000% recommend Ginger to anyone needing to find someone to trust their fur babies with!

Ginger has been taking care of my two cats for over two years and she is great! I have an 18 year old cat with early kidney disease and an 8 year old who is frightened of everything after being rescued by firefighters when my condo building had a fire in 2017. Ginger is patient with him and eventually gets him to come out from under my bed covers. My older cat just loves her and climbs all over her. During my last two week trip she came twice a day as it’s important for my older cat to eat regularly. She updated me with photos and videos, easing my anxiety at leaving them for so long. I totally recommend Ginger.

We had an awful experience. I left my dogs there from Wednesday to Sunday. When I got there to pick up my dogs, my English Bulldog was brought out with his leash around his neck. He smelled awful. All I could smell was pee. His eye has a hole in it. An ulcer (that he did not have before his stay I have pics of him that morning and it shows his eye was fine). The hole goes down to the lowest layer of tissue. He lost all vision from the injury/infection. It's going to be an 8 week recovery. I have to take him back to the ophthalmologist to see if his eye is healing or if he will have to have surgery. There is a chance he will lose his eye. I emailed Countryside to see what their policy is and why they didn't contact me or our emergency contact and they said they didn't see a problem with his eye. They never did tell me their policy and started saying that my dog was just hard to control and a difficult dog despite the report card they gave that said he was well behaved with no problems. All the guy wanted to do was argue about my dog. I had to tell him I don't want to argue and to please email me and then I hung up. I have been using them off and on for 20 years and never had a problem but recently found out while sharing my experience that they have a new manager and things have not been the same since this change. I left my baby healthy and now he could lose his eye.. Best case his eye will 'heal' but he still won't regain vision. I am heart broken and would never let any one I know leave their baby in Countrysides care. Please be careful when boarding your dogs anywhere and if you do board at any kennel ask them to go over your dogs physical appearance when you drop them off. Also ask what their policy is if there is a health problem that arises from their neglect. #paquitogriz

Great experience and the dogs love it there!!! They are always so excited when we pull in they forget that they were just nervous about going away!

Finding this place, so close to home, and so caring for the pets, has been a blessing. Our pup Bowie was a bit hesitant about day stays at first, but they (the numerous very helpful and compassionate employees) assured us he would warm up, and boy has he. He went from needing to be carried from the car, to now barely containing his excitement coming down the driveway for the all day fun with his dog friends. He's made soooo many, and we see video of his play with his buddies, and just love seeing him have fun with his bigger bros. Then when he comes home, it's lights out all night!

Well I just picked up my dog two days ago after staying here for 5 nights. Her nose was rubbed raw, which I was told it’s from rubbing it on the kennel. That’s not even the worst of it! When they brought me her bedding it was wet and stunk of urine. Our dog is 110% potty trained and does not have accidents. Then when they brought me my dog her coat looked off and she smelled just like her bedding. It’s as if she was sleeping in a soiled bed for god only knows how many nights. Once I got her home I immediately gave her a bath and threw out the bedding. That night I noticed she had diarrhea ( this did resolve by the next day). However the next day she started making an awful hacking/coughing sound. Well a few calls and a trip the urgent care vet she is diagnosed with kennel cough! We’ve only used this facility twice but will NOT be returning!

First time boarding our 2 dogs ever for 2 weeks. They came home happy and healthy! I was so nervous but the dogs did so good. I would definitely board there again and again.

Countryside always takes great care of our dog. We bring him for boarding and grooming services and have always had great experiences.

Buddy loves the Country Pet Spa ! And I'm pretty sure they love him too!

Great. I’ve brought my dog here several times, first time was when I had my twins. They listen to my message about wiping my bloodhounds ears down so he doesn’t get a ear infection. Also 4 mins from my place so perfect location

Our dog is not traumatized after being there, which is a good thing 😉 …

This place is great. They board dogs and cats which is unusal to have both in one location. They treat our cat and dog with love and care.

Mountain View was clean and comfortable for my 3 dogs. I believe they truly enjoyed themselves there and were happy With the arrangement in the kennel and outside.. They were especially friendly to the people there So I know they were very good to them and watched out for them as well. My. My 14 year old dog Really enjoys his time outside and this was perfect for him.. The puppies really I had a good time and and seem to love all the people there. I so appreciate them taking such wonderful care of them. I have not gone anywhere in several years and and I truly wanted to visit family I'm late I haven't seen quite some time. Very nice people, very nice arrangement, and great fun/care for my babies. Thank you so much Mountain View. Nora

It was the first time in two years that we were taking a vacation without our little ones so placement was very important. My son and his wife recommended Mt. View kennels so we decided to give them a try. Wow! My dogs loved it there. Even when we returned after being gone 12 days they didn’t run straight to us, but rather to the owner, Terry. Which tells me that they really enjoyed themselves. Even the transition back to their own home hasn’t been quite as clingy as it has been in the past. I love finding a facility for my dogs that they love and don’t mind spending time at.

Very nice, clean and well organized. We boarded our pups (9 months old) here for 5 days. We came to get them, they were still clean and happy. The owners are very kind, and the kennels are clean, good sized, and most importantly safe. The fenced in play area or break area is ample for two playful pups. I would highly recommend this place, and really appreciate the good care they gave our puppy's. Also, we brought plenty of treats, bedding and toys. We came back to pick them up, we got all their bedding and toys back. Thank you for being their for us, and for helping us have a good trip with no worries about our babies!

I have boarded my dog here several times and she does well there. That cannot be said of other boarding facilities. They are very accommodating and wish to make the dogs comfortable. My dog is blind and deaf, an elderly little dog on medication and eye drops. Terrie takes very good care that everything is given as prescribed. I highly recommend them.

Could not speak more highly of Mountain View Boarding Kennel. The amount of love and care that was given to our 3 small dogs was truly amazing. Communication from Terry throughout our extended stay away was so comforting. She paid special close attention to the needs of each of our girls, even providing a special diet for a high anxiety pup. The facilities are clean and secure. We love the grassy, fenced yard and indoor/outdoor options in each kennel. Our girls, their bedding, and their toys all came back clean, and our dogs were healthy and happy. We found a gem with Terry and Mountain View.

This is by far, the best place to take your dog in Oregon. The staff are incredibly friendly and great your dog with respect. My parents have been taking our dog here for 15+ years and we have never had a single complaint. The woman at the front desk is extremely friendly. You can easily tell that everyone working there loves being there and loves dogs. I hope this place never goes away.

The first time I used their service for my babygirl, she was fine and didn't come home with any injuries. However, the second time, she came home with a couple days old wound on her nose. When I asked the front staff about it, he said it had to have happened when I was picking her up, and she ran to the back to put her nose in another kennel and another dog got her. The wound was clearly not fresh, as in it happened while she was there a day or two before I picked her up. I received a call later that day and the lady said something entirely different. She stated she got that from pushing her food bowl around (something she never does). The way the wound looks, its definitely not from pushing a bowl. This is ridiculous and unacceptable. They didn't offer a discount or anything at all. We will not be going back to them. Who knows what they do to our animals when we are gone.

We just fostered our German shepherd here for 9 days. We left him with an old bed, two toys and plenty of food. First things first, and not a complaint just something I noticed- I calculated what we would have to pay beforehand ($25/day for 9 days - $225), but when we paid, our total was $229, not sure where this number came from as it's such a small difference, but if the pricing has changed, their website and pamphlets need to be updated. It was only $4 so I didn't bring it up. Anyway, that is literally the only thing I questioned. When I was initially looking for a place to board our dog, I stopped by and a gentleman was at the desk, I didn't get his name. But he provided me with so much information and gave me a full tour of the facility and explained the sleeping area, heated kennels, private run, and the large yard that each dog would be taken to during the day one at a time. The privacy was what truly drew us to this place, as our dog can be pushy with other dogs and doesn't know how big he is. Hunter was perfect and healthy and his same goofy self when we picked him up. Over the 9 days, Terry called us twice to provide updates on Hunter and her compliments of him were so wonderful to hear. We didn't have service during half our trip as we were up in the mountains, so she left a voicemail and getting that message when we came back into service was great and allowed us to enjoy our trip. We sent a really old bed with him that we didn't care if it got messed up, which we knew would happen. at some point it got urinated on so we tossed it, but thats why we sent that particular bed with him, plus we're moving and trying to get rid of stuff so it worked out perfectly! Terry mentioned she was going to try to wash the cover but couldn't remove it (we had put a fleece blanket cover on it where you get fabric and tie the edges together to make a blanket). That was extremely generous of her and definitely an extra-mile offer. When we got there to pick hunter up, all his things (food, bowl, toys, records) were at the front desk waiting and we just had to go back and get him and his bed. Very smooth process. Oh and you don't pay until you pick up your dog, which is kind of cool. The 5 star rating is definitely earned and deserved. I would leave a 10 star if I could. The only thing that would make it an extra special experience would be receiving picture updates of our dog running around the yard just to give owners peace of mind that their dog is getting yard time. I have no questions about it, but getting pictures is always fun. I absolutely 100% trust my dog in their care and love that we have such a great and affordable boarding option close by!

Have used Mountain View several times over the past few years. The facility is very clean and well run. And they love my dog. Anymore he willingly runs from the car to the kennel when I drop him off and doesn’t look back. Love this place!

Love Mountain View Boarding Kennel. No, they don't always answer the phone. They are busy taking care of your dog!! (Leave a message, they will call back) Cooper, my Springer, has boarded there several times. They are reasonable, convenient, and treat him well. It is a clean, well run facility. He gets fed, exercised and gets to bark at and with other dogs. They even wash his bed, before I return. Highly recommend it.
