Dog Sitters in Newberg, OR

Left my 11 month old puppy with them for 5 nights & she came home with kennel cough, among other things. Could not get ahold of anybody for the first 4 days. This was her first (& last) time staying there & she has some anxiety so I wanted to make sure she was doing okay. Called multiple times everyday, left voicemails, emailed & even tried sending a message through their website. No response until the day before I came to pick her up. When I did, she reeked of urine and her coat was greasy where she had clearly laid in urine & was not cleaned up (who knows how many times?) First staff member that I interacted with when I dropped her off was completely unknowledgable abt anything having to do with boarding. Gave me a card to email for updates, however the staff member I spoke to when I picked her up gave me completely contradicting information than the first. She also completely ignored my concern & complaint of being unable to reach anybody abt the wellbeing of my dog for 4 days. Simply replied that I used the wrong email & to use the correct one next time. My dog started coughing & hacking horrendously after I brought her home & given her a bath. They never mentioned anything abt them having any issues or concerns of kennel cough at their facility but she did in fact come home with it. Immediately took her to the vet & a $250+ bill later .. she's on 10 days of antibiotics for kennel cough & a suspected bladder infection. The facility itself reeks & seems like there is little to no sanitary practices used or standards upheld. Extremely disappointed in their facility, their lack of professionalism & care for clients and their pets.

Our dog spends a couple of days per week at Pawsitively Playful in Newberg. We love the staff and owner and they seem to really love our dog. Richard keeps high quality dog food and pet accessories in the shop too which saves us a drive sometimes. I highly recommend this doggie daycare and boarding. Enjoy holiday pet photos and participation in Newberg’s Old Fashioned Festival parade!

Very friendly an positive wonderful peaple an correlated to doggie owner's.we adopted a wonderful little mix breed thats taken a shine to us very quickly an gets along great with our cat an 5 month old dachshund an absolutely loves his new yard.we highly recommend these ladys for a adoption and doggie day care they do a wonderful job. Thanks so very much Pawsitively Playful.Great experience definitely recommend them to anyone looking to adopt or have your doggie watched for the day.***** A++++++

We were looking to add to our family and found our little girl at Pawsitively Saved Rescue. Meet Ryley, Richard saved her from a bad situation and now she has her forever home with her guy Jake. Please adopt or donate from these wonderful people.

Owner and operator is very friendly and good with dogs. I have my pup enrolled in the class and even though she is a bit of a trouble maker the owner handles her well. Group sessions are small and seem to still cater to the individual need of each dog. They sell additional services and products other than training, and it is nice because it is there if you need it but they never try to push it on you. Would recommend for new dog owners and veterans alike.

They always take such great care of my little Chi "Baby".Richard is kind and very patient with nervous dog mom's. The facility is well organized and clean. My little girl has special needs and they meet them with love. I highly recommend them.

I highly recommend this place for your doggy day care and overnight stay. In lieu of places where dogs are kept separately in crates, Pawsitivity Playful dogs are allowed to play with one another. They do have crates where dogs sleep at night, eat and recharge. Richard who is the owner treats my adult puppies with dignity and respect. Because of the positive atmosphere there, my pups would rather go there than play in the yard. 😁

Our pup Kenickie loves going to doggy daycare here!! Such a great way to burn out some extra energy during the week when we're busy, he always comes home ready to crash for the next couple of hours. All the employees are super awesome and take great care of the dogs. They've also always been super flexible when we need last minute puppy playtime day or boarding. And the prices are the best around!

Love this place!! What a treat for our dogs! The owners Richard and Merissa are absolute treasures. They are so tender and accommodating with all the dogs. Their facility is set up with the dog's needs in mind. That's not all folks! There is a professional groomer on site too, Pampered Pooch Grooming. The groomer Nicole is a miracle worker!! You won't be disappointed.

We had a good experience taking our dogs in to be groomed. Until the next day when our dogs began to cough and sneeze. After a trip to the vet we discovered they had Kennel Cough which they contracted at the groomers. I understand this is not 100% avoidable with so many dogs. However when we called to let them know, we were not giving an apology or any reassurance that additional sanitation methods would be taken in the future. The grooming was good, but it is not worth it when it comes to the safety and health of our pets.

Love love LOVE Camp Kiss-a-Pet! My dogs get SOO excited when we are driving up the road to them - we no longer say our dogs are at the kennel, we say they are at their own vacation 😁 …

Our dog loved her stay (I think) and we appreciated the rural setting and veterinarian owner being on site

Kris does such a great job making sure my doggie is comfy and happy while I'm away. She really cares for all the animals.

Our dogs have stayed several times and have loved it.

Awesome atmosphere, owner is amazing, animals are well loved.

My pups loved it here!!

We r very happy we found a clean and great dog boarding for the first time for our dog snow . The staff is very polite friendly and accommodating ! Specially the two young people ( VEC And SID ) who handed over the dog to us , hope I spelled their names correct , sorry if I didn’t . Dropping and picking up was very easy and quick . I so appreciate the cleanliness of the premises and very professional service they provide . Snow was clean and looked very well taken care of when we picked up . Thank you very much . Wish you all the best for your business!!!

Absolutely love this place. They remember my pup, Miss Maggie, each time we bring her. The front office staff is super friendly. They answer the phones or call you right back every time! They are able to send pictures on occasion. My dog loves it here! Plus all the activities they offer is the best!

We love The Tail Wag Inn and our pup gets so excited for her getaway when we travel. Staff is so friendly and accommodating. It makes our vacations more enjoyable knowing our dog is well taken care of and spoiled by staff in our absence. Thank you for all you do. Until next time!

Somewhat difficult turn in the driveway at night. Services were extremely good. It was my Corgi's first experience, an he was a happy camper.!.!

They've watched all my fur babies and they are incredibly happy and tired when they get home. That's a sure sign that they're getting some amazing love and attention which is all I can hope for. The cats especially. Usually they're mad when I get home from a trip and with tail wag there is no passive aggressive behavior for days on end upon my return.

THIS PLACE DOES NOT HAVE AC AT ALL. I realize this is Oregon but it was over 90* for a week straight and all those poor dogs must have been so hot. I would not take my dog here knowing they will suffer in the heat.

Immediately felt comfortable leaving our big golden retriever with this friendly team of people. You can sign up for extra services such as more playtime with humans or dogs or nature walks or even a bath and nail trim. Prices extremely good for what you get. Our dog’s name was on a board with other pets arriving that day, along with the names and photos of caretakers who would look after him. Our guy seemed to have a fantastic time! We would book again, 100%!! So glad we found this place.

My husband and I had our two senior dogs spend a day for dog daycare on 12/9/23 while we were out running errands. We have used Tail Wag Inn several times in the past boarding our dogs and cats and dog daycare. They always took excellent care of our pets and goes above and beyond taking care of them. When we boarded all four of our pets while we were on honeymoon back in 09/23, one of the staff was kind enough to send me pictures updates of my pets when I called to check on them. Keep up the awesome customer service : ) You guys rock!

My dog Poe LOVES it there!!! I've never seen her so excited to go to day care before and the staff always gave her so much attention.. I am sad we had to say good bye.. they are a special group of girls that work there!!

Absolutely phenomenal service from Tail Wag Inn. I had to board my cat while I moved apartments. The move in date got delayed twice and it ended up being almost a month. Tail Wag Inn was always super understanding and accommodating when I had to change my pickup date for my cat. The people there were super friendly and took great care of Malcom. I couldn't be happier with their service.

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

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!

I had a week long vacation out of the country and was very thrilled when I found Lori! I have never left my bunny with someone before for that long and was super nervous. Lori made me feel much better about the whole process by giving me access to the bunny room camera and her extensive knowledge on rabbits. I got to check on my little guy the whole time I was gone! Will definitely use Whisker Wise boarding the next time I’m out of town!

My three guinea pigs are very spoiled and precious to me, so it’s hard for me to leave them when we go out of town. I am so glad to have found Whisker Wise! Lori takes excellent care of my girls and responds readily to texts when I inquire about how they’re doing. They stayed with her for over two weeks this summer while we were visiting family and upon picking them up I could see they were happy and healthy (no lost weight, which happened at a previous place we boarded them at). She even gives them fresh veggies/tomatoes from her garden! Definitely recommend Whisker Wise. :)

Our guinea pigs Teddy and Domino were very well cared-for during our week and half away this month. The owner is super responsive to texts, understanding and responsible, and even sent us a cute video of our babies. :) Would definitely use again! Oh, and it was super affordable too!

Whisker Wise watched my two bonded English Lop Rabbits for about 17 days. Lori did such a good and attentive job in caring for them! They seem healthy and happy as can be. I also really enjoyed that Whisker Wise Animal Care and Boarding has cameras set up over the rabbit areas so you can check in on your rabbit at any time. Lori is also extremely kind and definitely cares about the animals themselves. When my rabbits ran out of a supplement/treat Lori went out and bought some more. I would definitely leave my Rabbits with Whisker Wise again!

When I went out of town for a week I was glad to find a place like whisker wise and someone like Lori to take care of my bunny. I've never boarded her before so I was a little apprehensive, but Lori assured me she would be very well cared for. She even offered to place her in a pen with a camera. It was so nice to see her on video whenever I wanted so I could check up on her and be able to move the camera around to see who she was rooming next to.The size of the pen looked very spacious and nicely set up with blankets. I would very much recommend Whisker Wise for any of your pocket pets and will definitely be using them again in the future!

I love Whisker Wise Animal Care & Boarding! Lori is absolutely wonderful and takes such good care of my rabbit. I never have to worry about him when I go out of town. She gives him the attention he needs and gives me updates on how he is doing. The setup she provides for rabbits is really nice and big. I used to board my bunny with my veterinarian, but I much prefer Whisker Wise. I have no reason to ever go to another boarder again!

Lori takes amazing care with the animals she watches. I was anxious to leave my newly adopted bunny for a week, but when I came back my sweet Maggie was even tamer than before! She has an amazing set up for bunnies (super cool modified room!) with toys and boxes and even little sitting pads for the bunns. She's super flexible about pick up and drop off and is very kind! She is awesome! Definitely recommend.

Fantastic experience! Our senior bunny was well cared for during the 10 days we were out of town, and I loved being able to check on her via webcam. We will definitely be booking again the next time we go on a trip!

Having recently moved to the area, we were a little nervous with finding a new place to have our rabbits stay while we were out of town. Lori was great to talk to and put me at ease- additionally having a camera where we could view our buns to check in on them was a huge plus as well! Benny and Jasper were well taken care of during their stay over the New Year's holiday. Definitely will be bringing our buns here in the future for boarding. Thank you Lori!

Lori took in my bunnies at the last minute because I lost power. She was super kind and helpful! She was flexible and attentive. I know my kids were well taken care of. I definitely recommend her and will go back to her in the future.

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!!
