Reviews
Happy Dogs, Happy Owners
There is a next level of care coming off the staff here that I have not experienced elsewhere. My dogs LOVE daycare here and I love that they love it.
- Harmony Romo
My beautiful Gracie, loves her days at 3 Dogs. I am so thankful for 3 Dogs, for loving my Gracie.
The best doggie daycare in town.
- Phyllis Armour
If I could give 10 stars I would. The prices are very affordable and compared to the progress my dog has made i would pay twice that.
- Timothy James
Incredible place! They know dogs here. They gave my high-energy German Shepherd an extremely thorough assessment ("interview") before he began daycare/boarding.
- Paige Dahlman
Anne and her staff quickly accomplished this! Now, he can’t wait to get there and “hang out” with his best buds. A play date once a week is a must!
- Sandy Kube
We LOVE 3 dogs! They take such good care of my dogs. The owner Anne is awesome and is always genuinely excited to see my pup.
- Olivia Montesano
Hands down one of the best daycare and boarding facilities in PDX. If you're searching for a new spot, look no further!
- Cynthia Holl
It's been a slow process getting her used to daycare and boarding, and I can't say enough about how wonderful the team has been at working with us and our dog!
