Dog Sitters in Royal, OR

We’ve been taking our dog to Tall Oaks for a couple months now and have been so happy with them! He comes home happy and exhausted, the staff is always so friendly and the most important thing: our dog loves Heather and Sam and loses his mind when he sees them each week. It’s nice to know we have somewhere for our high energy pup to go without stressing about whether or not it’s a good experience for him. Thanks Tall Oaks Crew!

I’ve been sending my senior pup (14 years old) to Tall Oaks for over two years now! She absolutely loves it there, and always receives the best care! The employees are extremely dog savvy and conscious of interactions, so I never need to worry about my dog having a bad time or over-exerting herself. As soon as she realizes where we are going, she starts barking in excitement in car! I cannot recommend Tall Oaks enough!!!

I don’t recommend this location due to a negative interaction with the owner. It did not work out to send both my dogs for ongoing visits to Tall Oaks due to the expense. They are totally reasonable in price, but it wouldn’t work out for me with multiple dogs. Completely my mistake. I decided to hold back on bringing my dogs in, and the owner offered to refund my credits paid for the day. Instead, she ignored me when I asked nicely many times about when she would provide the refund (emails, phone call, texts). I offered multiple ways to provide the refund (Venmo, check, PayPal, etc.). She ultimately just ignored me, or made odd comments in response. I would have brought my dogs in for the day if I’d known she was going to just rip me off for 60$. Very rude considering she offered to give the refund, and the service was never utilized.

It has been a year since my last review, but I wanted to update, since I now send TWO dogs to Tall Oaks. Daycare days are the BEST days, if you ask my pups. It may seem, at times, that there are a lot of dogs (a concern mentioned by someone else), but Sam (incredibly compassionate, skilled dog handler) and Heather (impressively knowledgeable and caring owner) are pros and know exactly how to handle the dogs so that they remain safe and are thriving in their environment. I deeply appreciate the level of care they provide to my treasured family members.

My puppy has an amazing time every time she stays with Tall Oaks. I know that she is well cared for and is having a great time running around with other dogs. She comes home tired!

Tall Oaks Dog Resort LLC is one of the few places in Eugene Or that takes perfect care of your pup. Professional care is constant, reliability is never a problem, and response is always provided. Our labs always come back breathing hard (from the enjoyable day of planned activities), and happy, after a day or night at Tall Oaks Dog Resort. Both dogs are always in a hurry to get back to the kennels. Tall Oaks Dog Resort is a wonderful place to leave your dog for the day, or a couple nights, guaranteed. Enjoy vacation (or a day off) while always knowing your dog will have the best time!

My dog Lila has had three fantastic experiences at Tall Oaks, including day care & overnight boarding. The whole staff is fantastic. I love their doggie transport of picking Lila up from our home and driving her back. Lila is a large high energy two year old, and she gets to run free in lots of beautiful space and play, romp all day. Heather, the owner, took special time helping me navigate the electronic system to reserve time at Tall Oaks. Cathy & Bobby who live their have literally taken Lila into the soul of their hearts 💕. Kristin who has taken care of Lila the most is one of the most compassionate dog lovers I’ve ever met. She’s gone the extra mile for Lila in too many ways to count. Suffice to say she’s fantastic, & I highly recommend Tall Oaks Dog Resort, Disney World for dogs.

So grateful to be able to go on vacation guilt free, after moving to the Eugene area and discovering Tall Oaks! My girl comes home so happy and worn out every time I have her stay at Tall oaks, and loves all of her friends there so much! The staff is super kind. And it is lovely to get photos while on vacation of my puppy looking just has happy has I feel when I am away having fun. Which never leaves me to worry about my sweet heart! I recommend this place to anyone and everyone who needs a little extra help.

Not a good first impression. AVOID THIS PLACE Everything looked good online and I talking on the phone and via email to Heather, the owner. Made an appointment to come see the place. Did my due diligence of sending all required documents and vaccine records and required antigen tests so I thought this is the place! The website looks good but you need to do an in person visit. She (Owner) very responsive online. Came out today and left with the most uneasy and unwelcoming impression by the person I met today. Started off with: Are you dropping off or what" "I didn’t know you were coming". "It would have been nice if she, Heather, would have told told me”. It didn’t get any better after that. The worker seemed disgruntled and it came off as super passive aggressive. Too many dogs for one person to handle. There are a lot of dogs for a small space. Don't be fooled by the pictures. The area is too small for the amount of dogs she boards at one time. This place has a bad vibe. Bottom Line: unwelcoming, overcrowded, not enough help, flaky owner. I would not leave my dogs at this place! The kicker: I wrote a final email to the owner letting her know of my experience. Her reply was: "call me"! Yeah-if I were an owner of a business my reply to this would not be "call me" it would be me reaching out to the potential client. That's pretty much what I need to know! FLAKY and unreliable!

Frances has been attending daycare twice a week for almost 2 months and life would be much sadder without this amazing option. She loves it so much and comes home happily exhausted. So good for both pup and her human! Heather is always responsive to any questions or concerns. You can tell she wants the best for the dogs in her care. And the shuttle service is such a blessing! Thank you, Heather and staff!

Our chihuahua-beagle mix rescue dog is a bundle of nerves. We’ve lived in Eugene for a decade and only found Willamette Valley Dog and Cat Motel last year. Our dog is always happy to arrive and in good spirits when we pick her up. Bonus: It’s near the airport, making trips easier.

Willamette Valley took amazing care of our two dogs while we were away on vacation. It was the longest we have been away from our dogs. The staff was incredibly caring and sent photos while we were away. The pricing was also very reasonable. We would highly recommend Willamette Valley Dog and Cat Motel!

Great safe, trustworthy and clean place for your dog with consistently good service! We’ve been boarding our dog here for 2 to 3 years now. Our boy always comes back happy and clean. Last time we dropped our dog off, he couldn’t get in fast enough, ran straight in😆. …

Well cared for, walked and played with each day (costs a little extra - but the Nature Walk each day gave an active dog reprieve from the kennel, and much loved handling by humans). Lina and Sarah answering phone are reassuring and wonderful people to have one’s pet with. Just a great place for our dog, and we ended up leaving him longer than anticipated, which was no problem with the wonderful staff at Willamette Valley Dog and Cat Motel!! THANK YOU SO MUCH♥️

Great experience! My dog came home happy, clean and tired. We were able to set up his room and see the facility. Staff was so friendly and kind. We will definitely be back!

This place is fantastic! The staff were so helpful and patient with all our questions before the boarding, and all our changes during the boarding. Our dogs came out happy and calm after spending 6 days at the Motel. :) And they will board your cats as well!

Tug Boat is a 150+ lb. Bullmastiff who does not get excited about anything, other than his food. That is, until we boarded him at Willamette Valley Cat and Dog Motel. This is his second time being boarded, and as soon as we pulled up he immediately got excited when he realized where we were. Tug Boat now has TWO things in life that excite him: Food and being boarded at this kennel. The staff are excellent, the animals are well-loved and Tug Boat highly recommends it for your pet’s vacation destination!

First time leaving my dog here and I must say it was a pleasant experience overall. The staff is amazing and my dog was well taken care of. When I came to pick him up he didn’t seem like he wanted to leave; I would definitely recommend this place to anyone who is looking to board their pet.

Wonderful caring staff and clean facilities 👍 Military discount was a nice bonus and prices extremely reasonable. Was sent photos and updates during Lafayette's stay. They accommodated my dog's obsession with daily laser light zoomies which helped keep him happy and in good physical shape while I was over seas for a few weeks. Highly recommend!

Our experiences with Willamette Valley Motel have always gone well. I love that our dogs get to share a space and with room to move about. The facility is always clean and organized, the faculty is kind and communicative, and the prices are some of the best in town. It can be a bit stressful leaving your pets, but I have grown to have piece of mind leaving them with WVDCM when they can't come with us on our trips.
