We…read moretoured 3 other boarding facilities in the Happy Valley area but none of them were as good as the Pampered Pet Lodge. We wanted a place that was comfortable and not too overwhelming since it was the first time he would be boarded. They have a great clean space, it is on a farm, and only 4 kennels, so they don't have too many dogs at a time. They take pictures/videos of your pet and send you regular updates. They also have regular potty breaks and playtime. It was a great place and Gyzmo even made a friend. The online application was having some issues but a quick call/text and they were able to take my reservation. I boarded my pup for 2 nights, the fee for a puppy (Gyzmo was 5 months) is a little extra, but it was worth it since they go the extra mile to make them comfortable. They will be my go-to border from now on!

I used A Sweet Life For Pets for a little over one year for pet sitting for our dogs. All went well until the last few months, and then unfortunately the interactions with the owner started to change. As is common in life, situations occur that require unpredictable scheduling changes. The owner made me feel guilty when I made changes, even though we always paid her for all of the visits that we cancelled with short notice, as a way of saying thank you for any inconvenience that the cancellations may have caused. Also, we always gave her generous gratuities for every visit that she completed! In all my years of having pet sitters help us out, I never experienced such poor customer service from the provider. I will close by saying that I do know that she cared about our dogs, and provided them with good care. It was unfortunate that her treatment of us as pet owners was such a negative that we did not feel comfortable with her caring for our dogs any longer.

We have been boarding our Labradoodle with Sandy for 4 years. Our dog came to us as a kennel dog…read moreand is not comfortable around strangers. She took to Sandy like a kindred spirit. We live in Beaverton and the drive is well worth the trip knowing our dog is in good hands while we are away. When we drop off our dog she runs to Sandy like a long lost friend.

Been bringing my pup here for six months now. Tried them out based on positive reviews. I can now…read moresee why folks like this team so much. My dog loves coming here and the staff is very engaged and aware of what's happening with your pup. They noticed a tiny bump on his head (he had prior to coming) and six months later remembered that bump when he had surgery on it. Their staff is always friendly, seem to love the dogs, and take their time answering any questions. We're very fortunate to have them here. My only quibble is that you don't actually go in to their facility. You arrive, call, and they come get your dog. (At pickup, some folks don't even get out of their car -- the staff opens car door and pup hops in.) So, I haven't actually been inside though they do have tours on Saturdays when they don't have dogs running around. I was put off by that initially, but from the pics I see and how much my dog loves it, I'm fine with it. A nice perk is they take really nice pics of pups for their Instagram page, including the one they took of mine here.

They not only gave him a good home while we were away, they worked with him on his stranger danger, impulse control and a slew of other items that he needed help with. All that said, can't tell you how much I appreciated knowing that he was in a good home while we were away, and I'm looking forward to our next training sesh!

I messed up and had to change the date and they responded with "no problem, we adjusted, look forward to speaking to you." When we finally had our phone consultation both my husband and I fell in love with Ursula's bubbly personality and knowledge. She spoke to us about our dog's issues and made some suggestions for immediate help and then suggested a trainer for anxiety. But we wanted to make sure we could try with her first so we are setting up an in person as we feel she can definitely help us and our dog. They are responsive, understanding and truly care. Ursula listened carefully to our concerns and gave us great suggestions and feedback. So I cannot recommended them highly enough just based on that. BUT I know we will love her when we start training (and I'll definitely update my review!)
