Dog Sitters in Gaston, OR

Great staff and excellent care for our fur babies. They treat them like their nieces and nephews! Very secure with double security latching and pets always on lead when moving around the property. They take care of everything. The add-ons are a real bonus for the pups who are rambunctious and playful.

we have two dogs that can be very tough to deal with are not particularly social, old and don’t really like unfamiliar people. It can be hard to find somewhere that will take them and care for them when they’re Such grumpy old men. Laurel acres is always happy to take them not worried about their attitudes and cares for them. This is one of the only places we trust with our tough little guys.

We visited here before bringing our kitty, because we had never left her anywhere but at home, but she needed medication while we were out of town. The employees were so sweet and let us take a look at the cat room, which made me feel SO MUCH better about leaving her. Just brought her home, and she is her silly self with not a care in the world haha. We will likely be back again!

Sookie was a 1st timer at almost 15. She’d never been to a boarder. The Cattery was clean, quiet & I know she was kept healthy & well cared for. Plus, she had food she had to have medicine in & that was no problem for them. I can’t say enough good things about Megan. She was an angel! She made my request of the bottom floor happen and did many other things to alleviate my fear and worry. The only mar was the weekend woman who checked us out. She was rude & abrasive. Wish I’d gotten her name, but I was a wreck because she wouldn’t let me see Sookie.

We had a last minute first time visit the staff was extremely helpful. Juni is an Australian cattle. Loves to herd.She did great.

I always take my dog here when we go out of town. Convenient hours, my dog is happy with no issues, easy to book boarding online, and workers are friendly.

Can't recommend them enough. My boy Stevie needs a little extra care, and wears a muzzle in public. I don't have to worry when he's at Laurel Acres. All of the handlers there are qualified and trained. They are also very responsive and give me sweet pictures of my boy when I'm away!

Laurel Acre is amazing. I've been boarding my dogs here for several years every time we went on vacation. My dogs are always taken good care of. They alway come back to me happy and healthy. I would highly recommend their service to other pet parents.

My pets are always excited when I bring them here! They pay attention to how our pets are doing and have given us a call when there are any issues that are medically significant. They have stayed there for up to two weeks and were in great spirits when I came to pick them up! It is a good bit of a drive out in the sticks for either location but in my opinion it’s worth the trip.

They did an amazing job with my Roxanne, very friendly when I arrived She had me answer a few questions as she made a record. Then I went and got my dog came in and they took her back. And called me when she was ready in about an hour or so awesome place. Thank you Kristen

The Grand Fur Lodge has a team of incredible and caring people. We had an unfortunate experience with a sitter over our holiday vacation and ended up getting him transferred here to the Grand Fur Lodge. I can't say enough about how incredible everyone here was throughout the process. They made the process as stressless as possible and you can tell they genuinely care about you and your animals. Can't thank them enough for giving us the peace of mind of knowing our fur baby, Mac was being taken care of well while we were away. Highly, highly recommend and will absolutely be using the Grand Fur Lodge to watch our baby again if we ever leave town.

Our dog has been attending day care here for about a month now, and is LOVING it! He excitedly whines in the car on the way and runs in as soon as we get to the door. The staff have all been amazing, and we feel really great about leaving Cairo here with them. It has been great for our pup to run off his energy a few days a week since both of us work from home.

Update 5/29/2024 - I just wanted to add on that we love absolutely everything about Grand Fur Lodge, not just the grooming! Dutch has also gone for daycare, boarding, and even one of their month group training sessions. He absolutely loves all the staff there. I really appreciate that the staff has a mind toward dog behavior and training. They make him behave as much, if not more, than we do at home. All of the staff supports our training efforts toward Dutch having to be calm before he can go say hi to someone, or that he has to wait before he goes through a door (which can be work with an energetic doodle!). Most doggie places that I've worked with in the past don't work on training with boarding/daycare clients at all! We are moving out of the area and will really miss Grand Fur Lodge! We love Grand Fur Lodge! Our pup, Dutch, is always so excited for his grooming appointments and comes home looking and smelling great. All of the staff is super nice and prices are reasonable! Highly recommend.

The Grand Fur Lodge has been nothing but a blessing to me. It almost seems wrong to share because I want them all to myself :) I moved here a few months ago after living in the same town for ten years. My dogs went to a doggy daycare there that they loved, but that was the only one they had ever been to. Needless to say, I was so nervous to start them somewhere new. The staff of The Grand Fur Lodge made it the easiest, most heartfelt transition ever. They kept a close eye on my dogs and how they were with new dogs and a new location. They were and still are patient with them, love on them constantly, work with them, and ensure their safety and health. Their customer service with humans is also outstanding! Very communicative, educational, and just flat out sweet people. 10/10 will continue with this facility as long as I’m here!!

Our three pups had a wonderful first boarding experience with Grand Fur Lodge! They were great about giving updates and answering questions while we were out of town and were extremely accommodating for our dogs needs!

I brought my Mini Aussie here and they did a wonderful job grooming him! He was happy and not nervous at all when we came back to pick him up. I recommend their services!

Adam is a fantastic trainer. In just a few sessions, I have already noticed a big change with our headstrong rescue pup. Rather than quickly teaching him basic commands, Adam is taking the time to go at our pace. He is teaching me how a dog's mind works, how to read his body language and training me on how to be an owner of a rescue with challenges. Highly recommend.

Our pups are so shy and have had a difficult time making puppy friends. However, the team at Grand Fur has been working closely with our fur babes to increase their confidence and courage so that they are beginning to feel more at ease around their puppy peers. Penny and Leonard enter daycare with their ears and tails perked up and at the end of the day, come racing out with smiles on their faces, bouncing , prancing, and happy to have spent the day being active. Thank you GFL Staff!

Always working hard to keep the place clean, they never fail to have all the dogs being able to play with each other; especially the shy ones. This is the place to bring your pup if your looking for a calm, controlled place where your pups can run out that energy and be a dog

We have had really good experiences with GFL. They really work hard to make a safe and fun experience for pets, and we have our pup in once a week and the staff are all really nice. Would recommend

If you need a home away from home for your dog, Deweydog’s is the place. We have a dog that is both companion and working. While his needs are minimal, he has gone through extensive training. The staff at Deweydog’s has taken the time to reinforce that training and given him an amazing and safe environment for socialization and exploration. We cannot express enough how incredible and conscientious the staff is – they are truly amazing. They treat each animal as if they were their own and truly get to know you and your pet. Baths, nails, treats, one-on-one attention, alone time, they go above and beyond providing it all. This is our dog Rip’s absolute favorite place to go and we are so grateful for all they do. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

My dog has been going to here twice a week since March and he absolutely loves it! He gets to play all day while also getting loved on by the staff. He comes home tired and happy. I couldn’t recommend them enough! They also post pictures to their story on Instagram everyday so you can see what the dogs did throughout the day.

We love Deweydog! Our puppy Karana has gone from a shy timid puppy to literally being sooo excited to visit. She gets so excited to see the staff. She has a new friend and is so much more social with other humans. I feel so grateful to have Deweydog so close. The facility is top notch. Clean and inviting. Never a foul smell. I would absolutely recommend Deweydog to anyone. I trust and value them. Dave the owner is very helpful and responsive. Congratulations on a wonderful establishment!! 🙂🙂 Update to this review! It’s been 3 years and we still love Dewey dogs! We now have another dog that goes to daycare every week. The staff are amazing and I can always tell that they love all the dogs. They are always on top of everything and even remind me when vaccines are due. Thank you for always being a safe place for our fur babies!!!

It is great to have a trusted place to leave your fur babies when going out of town. Each time our dogs realize we are driving down the entrance to Dewey dogs they start chirping with excitement. Great staff, and a great location to give your pets a home away from home

The care my dog gets at DD is second to none. I know she is safe. She gets to run and play and I never worry about her when she is there. What a great set of employees too! Don’t hesitate to bring your dog here for boarding or daycare.

We bring our pup to Dewy on a somewhat regular basis. Ringo is timid of people but has slowly warmed up to the girls over the year we've been taking him. We love the updates on Instagram as well! When Ringo had a problem, they quickly notified us, and it was quickly taken care of!

I have never had a dog get so excited for boarding. I can say Dewey’s and he has his bags packed and is ready to go. They love animals and have great screening to keep aggressive dogs out.

Been bringing my dog here for ~3 years and I love it. The staff seems to really care and seem to be very attentive. My dog seems to love it!

Dave and the team are the best! Our girls have been going to Deweydogs for a few years and they absolutely love it! It's priceless to know our fur babies are very well taken care of when we are out of town! And we love being able to check Instagram everyday to see if our pups are instafamous that day! Thank you, Dave and team! Keep up the great work!

We love Deweydogs so much! Our dog, Bruce, is a regular there and it's his second home. We have such peace of mind dropping him there for daycare and boarding knowing he's having fun and receiving the best care and love. Dave, Katelyn, and team are just the best!

We have used Doggie Camp for daycare and for boarding while out of town. Our great dane loves her visits! The staff does a great job taking care of our pup but most impressive is Oprah's care and knowledge that she shares. When she found out we were bringing our dog because she was destructive when we were gone she gave us some training tips for separation anxiety. Her advice was more helpful then all the other things I had read! Each time we visit she asks for an update and offers helpful advice. After the separation anxiety was better she moved on to helping us with improving our walks with our dog. Oprah makes sure our pup is happy at her place and helps us with training so that our dog can be happier in our home too. I highly recommend Doggie Camp!

Oprah’s Doggie Camp is the best. This business is a work of love for her because she loves dogs. I first started using her services in 2005 when she was doing this in her home. She is very reliable and delivers top quality service. Her daycare/ boarding facility is a house which is very comfortable to dogs. I always hated taking my dog to a kennel where they were placed in a cage in a warehouse or barn type environment. She also does grooming services and comes to your home when you are away to take care of things. I just returned from a 2-week trip and she took care of my parrot and watered my plants. Exceptional job! With all the heat I expected my plants to be worse for the wear but they were thriving. Love Oprah!

My dog and I both have been very impressed with Doggie Camp! I initially brought Bailey (AmStaff) in for some separation anxiety help while I was moving. It helped tremendously (I didn't have to replace any chewed up door trim in my new house!). I have continued to bring her in regularly, even if I don't need her out of the house for any reason, because she absolutely loves going. The pricing is very reasonable, the staff is exceptionally friendly, and I have a happy healthy dog. Thank you to Oprah and the staff for giving me peace of mind, and giving Bailey somewhere she is comfortable and loved when I'm not around.

We love Oprah! She has helped us with our dogs anxiety, diet, as well as behavior. The staff is amazing! You can tell they really care about the animals. They’re always super friendly:) Ziggy is always excited about his weekly play day at doggie camp.

Need a last minute day sitter for my King Charles and contacted them the night before. Oprah was really nice and professional. She had clear knowledge of the different demands breeds have and let me know off the bat she would tailor Wrigley's day to make sure he was happy. Place was clean and well maintained. Would definitely use again.

We boarded our Lab/Great Dane mix with Doggie Camp for a week this last April. They were very accomodating, meeting with us late to tour the facility and willing to give our dog her medication with no additional fee. It's easy to see they truly care about the dogs in their care, and that each dog is treated as an individual. Very nice staff and Letty loved her stay. Will definitely board with them again :)

I am really glad I found this place. We had our 2 dogs here while on vacation and they came back home much more calm. Our little dog is a barker but when I brought her home, she didn’t even make a peep towards our roommate! We now are taking them at least once a week. She does training and gives some great tips. Again, I’m so happy to have came across this daycare. I will update my review if things change. :)

Love, love this place. Oprah is so good with our dogs, her staff is wonderful, and our dogs can't wait to spend time at doggie camp. We have peace of mind when we are on vacation and our dogs are at Oprah's.

Oprah and crew are excellent in the care and training of dogs. “A happy dog is a well behaved dog”. My 6 month old lab has really benefited from their expertise!!!

Our Puppy has had better manners and was out of control until we found Oprah. Now we take her 3 days per week and have for 1.5 years and always have a great experience.

Mandy is the BEST groomer! Another reviewer mentioned their rescue with anxiety and I have one too! Mandy is great with all dogs but shes navigated our pups anxiety and aging issues with so much care & compassion. My pup loves her and it makes me happy that he is so happy to go to his “spa day” with Mandy!

Our girls love coming to Dogs Day Out for daycare. We have also used their boarding services multiple times and it always feels like the pups had a good time during their stay. Absolutely love the people working there, front desk, with the pups on the back and grooming.

Dogs day out has been our daycare and boarding facility since we moved to the area 8 years ago. Our pup Maple can have a bit of stranger danger, but the staff at Dogs day out has been amazing and she absolutely loves it there! She was well taken care of, even during the ice storm a few weeks ago, when we got stuck in CA a bit longer than expected. This picture is how cozy our pup was during her last stay. Our other pup Bagel also goes there now, and both dogs always come back extra tired and happy. Highly recommended!

Thankful for the Nextdoor community members for recommending Dogs Day Out. Came from Camp Bow Wow for their grooming services and we had terrible experience, so we appreciate it when we experience top notch service. People here obviously love their dogs. The minute you walk in you can tell this based on how they talk to their dogs. Especially the groomer! (sorry I forgot her name but she’s extremely sweet💕) Thankful for such a cute groom that you gave my baby and I know he had a good time with you guys. They were so understanding to let my baby run around with other dogs because I was running late to pick him up. Thank you! Will come again for my other dog

The staff here are amazing my puppy had never been to a groomer before and when we went to meet them he didn't take long before he was comfortable being around them which made me feel very good about having them taking care of him since he is not fully socialized but he is getting better.

Phoenix did a wonderful groom on my 2 Cavashon pups. Place is clean, staff is friendly and price is competitive. Highly recommend!

First off I want to say Mandy and the staff are phenomenal. My dog Max is a rescue so he suffers from anxiety and self image issues but he loves going to visit Mandy and the gang. Every time he comes prancing out with the confidence of a show dog, showing off his new haircut. The services are affordably priced and there's a lot of TLC from the staff given to our furry friends.

10 out of 5 stars. I cannot say enough good things about Dogs Day Out! We have just recently moved to the area, and needed to find a good daycare & occasional boarding for Billie, our 6 year old Blue Heeler. The onboarding process was super easy & quick. We were able to setup a meet & greet evaluation in the same week that we provided all the necessary vaccination info. The staff have been super welcoming, easy to communicate with, and exhibit a strong knowledge of canine care. So far, Billie has spent four full days with Dogs Day Out, and every day she comes home happy, tired, and ready to relax with us after work. Dogs Day Out has taken exceptional care of Billie. We are grateful & relieved to know Billie is spending her days with some great folks. Being new to the area, it could have been a stressful situation finding the right daycare. Dogs Day Out has taken all of that stress away and provided such a positive experience!

My pooches love this place. Always eager to go in. That’s all I need to know; they love it. (Some other dog daycare places my doggies didn’t want to enter.). My little dog gets her grooming/clipping done there and she looks lovely afterwards.

My fur child is so incredibly happy the second we pull into the parking lot!!! The staff are welcoming, warm and engaging. I was just using this service as a fill in activity for travel but my little buddy can not live without the Scooby crew on a regular schedule. Can not say enough about how fabulous this has been! Great pricing and the A’ la cart services are awsome too!

Scooby shack continues to amaze me with their customer service, compassion, and hard work ethic! I always know that my sweet doggy is in the best hands when I drop her off there and better yet she always looks like she is having a blast! Thank you Scooby team for making sure my Thelma girl is always comfortable and having fun🩷 …

Nyxie loves her plays and stays at Scooby Shack. She's made some good buddies (dogs and humans!), and she "sings" all the way to the Scooby Shack once she knows we're headed that way. The staff takes such good care of our girl. When she stays there, the staff is happy to give updates and pictures. (We know Nyxie is having a ball so this is really to make her parents feel better.) Thank you Scooby Shack for taking such great care of our girl!

Extremely disappointed with this place. We used to bring our dog here exclusively for grooming and daycare but never again. We brought our dog in to get groomed after several years of grooming here and only when I went to pay was I told that the prices increased, over $100 MORE! We'd always brought our dog in the morning to play with the other dogs and then his grooming appointment would be in the afternoon. We've done this for years and not once have they charged us for day care when bringing him in the morning If we also got him groomed. It was only when I came to pick him up that they told me they increased their prices for grooming and charged me for the morning. I understand raising prices as needed but this was a very dishonest way to go about that. They should have let their customers know before they leave their dogs there that they increased their prices by so much instead of waiting until after the service is over. Not to mention the groomer did not even trim some areas we'd requested like around his booty so now I have to do it myself. We will never be coming back and will be telling our friends and family who also go there about this experience.

I'm so excited, Scooby Shack has a new groomer (Hannah), and she is fantastic. I have a Yorkshire Terrier and a Bernese Mountain Dog and I've been through more than my fair share of not so good grooming experiences. Leah really listened to me and did exactly what I asked her to. My dogs look great, and you can tell she really enjoys grooming dogs. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her!

I’ve posted before and after pictures of our mini Aussiepoo. As you can see, he had a full head of cute, curly hair that the groomer at Scooby Shack has managed to shave off haphazardly twice. When we picked him up this time, we were in tears; she’d cut his whiskers off, shaved his entire body and only left his ears and tail alone. She said it was because we didn’t brush him enough, but we brushed him every day. I am so disappointed and upset by this groomer. How can you work with animals and do this to them? Do not take your dog to this woman, she clearly doesn’t care about the work she is doing or how her customers feel.

I have taken my dogs to Scooby Shack since 2011. Trulli loves going to Scooby Shack so she can play with her doggie friends and with Todd. I am very happy with the care Trulli receives and have no reservations taking her for daycare and boarding Trulli at Scooby Shack.

Very impressed with this daycare and boarding facility . Very clean and communication is topnotch. They Have staff with the pups at all times -24 hrs. Experienced staff watching and they understand animal behavior. As I’m Watching pups come and go-The pups are so happy waggin their tails , hopping on their feet -such a sight to see. That tells me they had a good time. What great way to socialize a pup in a pack environment. 🤩 They even have a cat condo. Super Clean and have wall climbing area for them. I got to see a cat scratching on a post didn’t even seem scared. Relaxed and strutting his stuff across the room. 🤩

Our dog loves Scooby Shack. He is excited when we take him here, and when he comes home, it is obvious he has played all day long and enjoyed his day. Staff are super friendly and nice.

My dog loves Scooby Shack. His enthusiasm to rush through the doors and get inside is sometimes overwhelming! It's easy to see why. The staff is friendly and reliable. Everyone has a great attitude and welcoming smile. I totally trust them to provide a safe and secure place where my dog can run around with his pals. I never have to worry when he is there. We both love Scooby Shack!!

Noah’s Arf is absolutely wonderful! They are always kind and helpful and I appreciate the support and care they show for my dog! Can’t recommend them enough! (Pictured a happy puppy after daycare)

I have left my Chiweenie at Noah’s Arf one time since the new management took took over. As far as I know, she’s gotten good care there. I really don’t know how I would know much about her care unless I stay a 24 hour period with her. That isn’t reasonable, of course. Recently, I was going to send her there. However, the $55 a night fee was prohibitive for me. I was able to get a family member to watch her for the week and paid her instead. On the website, it indicated that small animals get a discount. I asked about that, but they informed me that was only for small animals like hamsters and rabbits in a cage. I know they have the small well-behaved dogs running around in the office during the day. I suggested that they give a discount for those dogs. My response to that request was that “they have they their operating costs”.~~So, unless I get in a real pinch, I will probably use friends or family when I need to leave my little doggy. And now that I have left a review that may is “less than positive,” I will probably not leave her there.

I’ve been using Noah’s Arf for Grooming for the last 9months. I’ve had 3 different groomers and Taylor has been the best! I have my Yorkies ears cut a specific way and she’s nailed it every time. Thanks Taylor!

Noah’s Arf is not only a respectful, and clean environment, but the team CARES about each and EVERY dog. They are obviously trained in the understanding of dog psychology and I have watched my dog grow to be a happier, and more social pup thanks to their day care. My 4 year old Goldendoodle used to be constantly overwhelmed without me, and scared around energetic dogs…now he body slams the door with excitement to see his Paw Pals! They also have such convenient grooming options available while your dog is there. While the cost is totally reasonable for my wallet.. I honestly couldn’t put a price on the relief I feel knowing they are available 7 days a week, my dog is safe, happy, and also not picking up a bunch of bad behaviors (since their floor staff is so great at managing). They say “raising a (dog) kid takes a village” and I would recommend Noah’s Arf to anyone that needs that extra help for vacations, busy schedules, or just to help your pup burn off extra energy.

Mousse has gone to Noah's Arf daycare for nearly 1 1/2 years - since he was a "little" puppy. He's now 19 months old and loves every day he spends with them. I couldn't be happier with his care, the facility and staff. Most importantly - Tracy, Shane and their entire staff treat Mousse like he's their own! 💕 Noah's Arf is truly his second home and family. Thank you for caring for my crazy boy!

I have used Noah's Arf for both day visits and week long extended care for my 2 very active Husky Sisters. One of which is fully blind but very active. They have received wonderful care and love to spend time with the Noah's Arf Staff and the other dogs. I highly recommend them and will be using them again this summer while on a 9 day campout. My Husky's love going there for daycare!

I have never used a boarding facility before, so I didn’t know what to expect. I just got a new kitty and had to plan a trip. I was so happy I chose Noah’s Arf! They sent me pictures of the owners daughter playing with my kitty (Chester) and he was so happy! They kept him clean, well fed and gave him lots of attention. Staff is very nice and friendly. I will of course bring Chester back!!!

We went to the indoor dog park and it was perfect for what we were looking for. The temperature was well controlled and the space was nice and big so my dog could get her energy out. It was also clean and on top of having treats for the dogs they also had treats in the form of drinks for humans they served on the side. I definitely would recommend this place and we look forward to coming back!

I just want to say gabby is the best groomer our dog has ever had. We have a Tibetan mastiff (lots and lots and lotttss of hair) and we had a groomer turn us down and our last groomer say they were not advanced enough for him. Not because of his behavior but because of his hair. What I did not realize is that they had not been grooming him like he needed to be and his coat got wayyyy too thick. My husband and I had also spent multiple hours a week brushing him. I left Baloo with gabby for the day and he came back and he was a completely different dog (in a good way of course) just in time for summer. So happy I was able to find this place and very happy with the result will definitely be coming back! I added a before and after photos

Noah's Arf is an excellent place to board your pet. They provide a great standard of care, and ask plenty of thorough questions on intake to make sure your pet has a good stay. The staff is very personable, and aren't trying to rush you in and out like some other boarders. Our dog isn't a happy traveler, but whenever she realizes we are going to Noah's she perks right up, and everyone there seems to know her name. The report cards you get after your pet's stay are always a treat as well, and helps reassure you that your pet is in good hands.

I love the free day opportunity. It is understandable sense my dog has been training through severe separation anxiety for a couple months after his previous owners kenneled him until he was 5 months. He's a quick study and the man that lead him into his dog daycare was the 1st my dog has ever gone with without pulling and the man saw that he was better the next day. Phew! I recommend this place. Check out the savings on the buying options. The price is right. Also feels like a good and happy neighborhood dog daycare. My dog came back tired and ready to eat. They have great prices on meals but I just feed him so he has a routine.

My beloved, healthy mini schnauzer DIED in their care from horrific injuries. Your dog is not safe with them. I trusted them with my sweet little pup and he never came back home.

I called to speak with someone about boarding my dog and they were so rude! I said, "Happy Friday! How are you?" To which they scoffed and replied, "What do you need?" I said I was thinking of boarding my dog, but not when they spoke to me like that. The person laughed and said, "That's fine." And hung up. if this is how they treat the humans, I worry how they treat the animals. No thanks.

This place is awesome!!! My dogs love coming here, and they are always so tired when I pick them up, which is great because a lot of the time during the work week, I do not have time to play with them. Cheaper than any other place in the PDX area as they have package deals for weeks/months. More days you buy, cheaper it is overall. Pickup/drop off process is quick and efficient. The sweet lady that works here is a hoot and always making me laugh. Thank you, Safe Journey!

I just gotta say, I absolutely love this place! The staff and environment are incredibly friendly and welcoming. my two rotties always have such a good time there. I know my boys can be difficult at times, but they are very patient with them and they always come home happy and healthy wiggle butts! <3

Been coming here for since my dog was a puppy and she loves it! When I drop her off she gets so excited and runs straight to the door to wait for Julia or Craig to come get her! We love Safe Journey and are so grateful for your services!

I have nothing negative to say about them. Only thing is that i wish they were closer to Troutdale. I absolutely love bringing my dog here. He always comes home very very tired. You can tell that the staff here is very knowledgeable about what they're doing as well. I drop him off before work or a trip and i leave with a peace of mind. i appreciate how they try to accommodate my schedule as well. I also love how they don't kennel their dogs. My dog has terrible separation anxiety and a kennel would not be a good time for him. I really appreciate this business, and the staff that can make it all happen. I will be recommending them to anyone who needs a great doggy day care.

This place holds one of the worst experiences I have ever had. This happened 1 year ago. I took my sweet old pup there for a few day care trials in anticipation of a potential 10 day stay. He seemed to liked it so I went ahead and book his long stay. Conin was at Safe Journey a total of 5 days and he died. They emailed me while I was abroad to tell me my dog had not eaten in 3 days and that he was in poor health. 3 days! I immediately had a family friend go pick him up and 24 hours later he was dead. Not only this has been dramatic and absolutely devastating, but I also had to deal with the complete and utter lack of responsibility Safe Journey decided to take regarding this after I arrived back in the US. I received long emails from them with just excuses. I strongly believed that my dog was left in isolation, not fed and not cared for at all. He was so dehydrated when my friend picked him up, that even after 24 in intensive care they could not revive him. This place is extremely dodgy, they thrive themself as specialized in "difficult dogs", and so i trusted these people with my 15 year old mutt. He was a healthy old pup, and within 5 days he became ill and died. They took no responsibility, they did not offer to reimburse me for the days he did not spend in there, there was zero care, only a bunch of excuses. The recent number of horrible review have encouraged me to speak up. At the time, I reported them to the better business bureau. I strongly encourage you to do the same if you had a poor experience there. Below is a photo of Conin on August 24th (the day I dropped him off) and the photo of him 6 days after. Bless him.

We love Safe Journey so much! Craig and the team care so much about our pup and make sure he’s having a good time- whether he feels like relaxing alone or playing with others. It’s such a life saver to have a neighborhood hang out spot we can drop in any day or time. The rates are fantastic as well. Thanks Safe Journey team!

My dogs love this place! Kennels can be anxiety inducing, especially for resuce dogs. At Safe Journey, they get to socialize freely, making it more natural for all the dogs. In addition to our dogs being happy, they have very flexible availability and fair pricing, a must for last-minute travelers like myself.
