“Have had a great experience with Come Dog and Walkin' Dog classes here (both taught by Emma). Our dog is 65lb of pure puppy energy and we were not sure if he'd be able to make it through a whole hour being so close to other dogs without being able to play with them (his only desire in life is to wrestle every dog he sees). Emma did a great job setting up the space to minimize distractions and got him to the point where he pays attention to us even with other dogs nearby. All the games and skills we learned in class have really translated into better behaviour and self control everywhere. Going on walks is 1000% more fun, he's able to sit calmly when dogs walk by us, and his recall is pretty darn good too. Going to classes together really helped me and my partner get on the same page with training. Instead of both of us watching a bunch of random Youtube videos and taking different approaches we now all know the same cues and rewards and our dog isn't getting mixed messages from us. Totally worth the cost.“
“Wooftastic has an amazing team of caregivers!!! They are professional and efficient at drop off and pick up. They send photo and video updates of my furry fellow during the day too! I love the positive energy of everyone!! I highly recommend this setting ??“
“My dog has been going there at least 6 months, since she was 11 weeks old, and she loves it! I am so impressed with the staff and owner. They truly love these dogs and it shows when I drop off my dog. She cannot wait to get inside to play. I even see other dogs being dropped off and they have that same energy. It is truly the best money I have spent on my little girl.“
“Doug is so great. Smart and kind and honest and knowledgeable. Recommend highly. He really knows and loves dogs, and will come to dog day care to watch your dog in action“
“Mark really helped us with our young Briard.We really needed help with aggressive behavior on walks. She is doing so much better after one training.“
“Before we went to Kindred Dog Pdx we were never confident that we could have Josey off leash because she basically had no recall. She was also a bit anxious when people and other dogs approached. So, we decided to enroll her in a 4-week Board and Train last October.We have been so very pleased with the care, support and expertise that were given to us since that time. Ruben and Shane are great at communicating with us and our 3 year old lab/pittie mix. Their gentle yet firm manner of speaking to Josey and their clear teaching style really allowed Josey to be more calm and confident.We have been regulars at the weekly group alumni class which is a great community support gathering with pearls of training that we take with us to practice before the next class.The saying ‘It takes a village…’ can also be applied to the care that’s often times needed in the raising of these wonderful K9 friends. My husband and I took up the responsibility and energy of raising a very active 8-week old pup while we are in our 70’s. We are very fortunate and grateful that we were guided to Kindred Dog Pdx and have become confident dog handlers in the process.“
“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!“
“We started taking our dog Gordon to The Ruff House when he was almost a year old. It was his first time being boarded and they really helped him with the transition. They were observant and noticed when he was tired and overstimulated- taking special care to let him hang out at the front desk as a break for the day. Now two years later he absolutely LOVES going and we are always thrilled to see him get so excited when we pull into the parking lot.Vesna has proven time and again that she puts the care of the dogs above everything else. When Gordo got a bug bite with some swelling we were notified right away and were given updates as he improved. They are always very transparent and honest and we hugely value their ethical practices when it comes to the pup's care.I cannot recommend this place enough. They truly care about your dogs and take excellent care of them!“
“Michelle’s place is amazing! She truly is a bird whisperer. My 1 year old Conure has so much fun at her house-he never wants to leave! It’s so important to have quality pet care-thank you, Michelle!“
“I’ve taken 4 classes with my young dog at Happy Go Lucky and I’m so grateful for their guidance and instruction. The instructors are TERRIFIC and the extras that Susan taught in obedience have proven to be essential to calm, daily living with my dog. Having never trained a puppy, I was unprepared for the challenges and was floundering when we arrived. Through the classes I’ve become much more confident and my dog is thriving!“
“Highly recommended; they understand dogs, and use only positive methods. I foster dogs from China and Taiwan for Golden Bond Rescue. I'm not inexperienced with training, but one dog was extremely fear-aggressive with other people and very unsafe. Brittany worked with us a couple of times, and with some practice we were able to change her behavior completely. She got a wonderful home. Not inexpensive, but effective.“
“I had puppy fever one day and bought a GSD pup from someone in the classifieds. Needless to say that was a huge mistake and my puppy had all sorts of behavior problems. I was going to try and just youtube my way through training but as he got bigger I got worried and reached out for some training.I reached out to 3 different trainers that I found from a google search. All three told me they suggested a 2 week board and train for 2000$ and promised my pup would be fixed.First of all I wasn't looking to just hand off my pup to some stranger to "fix" all his problems. Paul only suggested board and train when we had exhausted other avenues and my pup was still having negative behavior. eventually I did do a two week board and train with Paul and my pup came back with his manners! I was super impressed.Next Paul doesn't guarantee his training is going to "fix" the problem, and this makes so much sense because you cannot predict how the animal is going to learn and what other issues maybe going on. You also can't predict if puppy parents are going to go home and do their homework. I respected the honesty from him on that.Paul has been training and taking care of dogs for 20 plus years! He is knowledgeable, has a huge heart for animals, and is a no BS kind of guy. If you need dog training come see this guy!“
“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 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%.“
“I have two high-twitch, high-anxiety dogs who lodge at Stay Pet Hotel when we leave town. They both calmly trot into the front office for check-in and return home happy and healthy.“
“Upon arriving back in Portland, I needed a dog walker as my remote job gave way to an on-site job. After being ignored by a couple of different providers, Betsy responded promptly, set up a meeting and now my guy, Gary, is the happiest pup on the block. She's priced fairly, provides excellent service (pictures of every walk and attention to Gary's well being), is an A+ communicator and just a generally great care-taker. I couldn't be any happier with Bowser's and Betsy and, as a fanatical fan of my dog, recommend her without hesitation.“

“Dog Buddies Daycare has been so great for our family! Our pup is timid due to some bad experiences in the past with aggressive dogs. He's been able to get over his timidness and make so many friends at Dog Buddies due to the great staff who monitor the play and always make sure each Dog is having a great time. They even post to their Instagram story everyday so you can see pictures and videos of your dog to check in on them and see how many friends they've made. Highly recommend!“

“Zoe and her team at Rascal Training are a godsend! Our 1 year old puppy was out of control and we spent the first 6 months we had him wondering what we got ourselves into. He was very reactive toward other dogs so we were never able to take him on walks and in the house he would constantly be chasing the cat, chewing on something he shouldn't be, jumping on someone, or licking everything in sight. I'm not exaggerating when I say Zoe changed our lives! Tag is now able to enjoy walks with the family, go to his bed on command, and has a much more calm demeanor. I would cry with joy watching the videos of Tag during his training and seeing the changes he made. I can't say enough good things about Zoe and what she's done for Tag and my family.Zoe was very thorough going over all of Tag's training when he picked him up. She kept us up to date on his training through Instagram videos and was very responsive to emails.“
“Great service. I can tell my dog loves it by how excited she gets when we’re heading over there“

“Everyone has treated our dogoes like they are their own. Both of our dogs get so excited when we ask if they want to go to Doggie School. Highly recommend.“
“There aren't enough stars to give Windy and her crew at Pounce Play and Stay. They took excellent care of my much loved Mr Fancypants, who is 12 years old, for an extended stay-- just about 3 months(!). They sent pictures and updates many times a week. Even though this was such a long stay away from home, our kitty came home happy, healthy and not holding a grudge :). I can't say enough good things about Windy and her team. Great care, communication, and just really nice folks who take excellent care of kitty cats.“
“Steve is awesome. Kind and patient. My dog responded on day one. He’s very patient with me as I’m learning to be more calm and assertive with my catahoula dog. Thank you Steve. You really are great!!“
“You guys are amazing! Thank you for going above and beyond for us during our holiday travel and with our delays. Gus loves you all and he is so happy when we arrive. Thank you for all you do!“
“The staff here are absolutely delightful and always so caring. They always remember my dog's name and are excited to see her. Of course, the pup is always excited to go visit doggy daycare and is so tired at the end of the day.“
“The prices are definitely higher than other dog hotels and boarders. However, the price of this establishment feels more like an investment than paying for a service.Firstly, the facilities are clean and well organized. It’s a step above in every way from the status quo. It is definitely a dog hotel.My dog Mili is a formerly abused animal. She’s getting older and is generally more anxious than other dogs. Historically, she has a harder time with certain dogs vs others. She even used to bite people when she first was rescued.They interviewed her to cater to her needs and helped her bridge the gaps in her social skills. She definitely likes the more relaxed and older group of dogs and she always has anxiety in meeting new people. By the end of the day and on returning visits, she looks forward to spending time with the staff.They were perfect in their interactions with my dog and impeccably professional with me.This staff has built my trust with them as well as have helped develop my dogs ability to trust others both human and canine. They made things happen that I didn’t think was possible. I am more than satisfied.“

“We bring our dog Rupert here now that he's neutered, vaccinated, and old enough to socialize well. He's always happy to arrive at the play area and can't wait to get in. He comes home after a half day stay, prerry exhausted and well exercised.The staff remembers Rupert every time and let's us know how things went while he is there. The location is very convenient, the staff is great, and our dog is learning some good dog manners from playing and socializing with the dogs there. This is our third month bringing Rupert there, and we couldn't be happier.“
