Team

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ My husband and I are SO happy we found Dog Adventures Northwest. Kerry is very easy to work with and reliable. She responds to our scheduling questions promptly and we love working with her. Now onto our dog... it's hard when your dog loves her trainer sooo much more than you, but we quickly get over it when we have a tired and happy pup return home. Our dog looks for Peter out the window every morning, waiting for his car to pull up because she is so excited to go on an adventure with him. Her recall has drastically improved, and we are so thankful for the training work Peter does while on the adventure. It's been worth every penny.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I could talk about how much we love Dog Adventures Northwest... but the real vote belongs to our pup, Lily. We have a special text-tone for Kerry and Lily always knows when she is on her way for an adventure! She hears it and happily runs right to the door.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Dog Adventures Northwest is a fantastic company and I cannot recommend them strongly enough. Cassie is an incredible trainer and dog whisperer, and helped enormously in raising and training my yellow lab puppy. Jess is also stellar and extremely caring and dedicated. They are also fantastic people who care deeply about training and caring for dogs and are incredible resources. This is not your run-of-the-mill dog sitting and training outfit. These are top-notch trainers with years of experience who provide highly customized services and really get to know your dog's personality and work with you on specific training/care regimen. Kerry has always been there when we needed care and support for our pup. I am so glad I found such a great company!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Dog Adventures was the answer we didn’t know existed! As first-time dog moms to a high-energy Vizsla pup who developed some dog-dog reactivity, we struggled to get Obi off-leash exercise in a safe way, especially since he tends to range and his recall was pretty spotty. We had tried other non-trainer-led solutions with too many dogs and not enough management and it created more issues than it solved. We were excited about the prospect of adventures being guided and managed by positive trainers with a small number of dogs. Cyrus has been taking Obi on off-leash adventures for the past 6 months and it’s been amazing. Cyrus gives thorough reports on how the day went, works with us to resolve any issues, is super communicative and flexible, and works really hard to make sure all the dogs have a great time. Obi’s recall has improved significantly and he’s just a happier boy. He gets so excited on adventure days and the many photos and videos we get from Cyrus show how much fun he’s having. Do your pup a favor and sign up for an adventure!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ These guys rule! We have been using them since we moved to Portland a couple months ago. Jamie has been hiking our buddy Dingo once a week and he always comes back worn out and happy. She sends us lots of photos of him having fun on the trail with other dogs and provides a report for how he did. Is it grade inflation when he always gets A's? Nah, I think he is just that good. They do overnight dog sitting as well, and Jamie has taken Dingo when we are both out of town. We trust her completely with him!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We have had a great time training with Dog Adventures Northwest. They have formed a strong bond with our pup, Rufus! Although they said he was smart and well-behaved, he didn't really pay that much attention to training. But the advice, games, and tips they gave us are helping our girls interact with Rufus in a positive way. Thank you Dog Adventures Northwest!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ My 8-month-old dog has been going on weekly adventures for the past month and LOVES them! She squirms with delight when Clara comes to pick her up, and her recall is getting better each week. She comes home a very tired and happy pup! Communication with Clara, the trainer, and Kerry, the owner, is very easy and responsive. They both have been wonderful to work with. Scheduling is also very easy either via text/email or the app. Clara sends an update and great photos after each outing. I will definitely use their boarding/sitting services when I need to travel. They are a very trustworthy and caring company. I highly recommend DANW.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I am one of those people who considers their dogs as their kids. I wouldn't trust just anyone to care for our two guys. We use Dog Adventures Northwest for pet sitting and also for adventures. Kerry, the owner, is fantastic. I absolutely love her personality, as she is so easy to work with. She has wonderful customer service skills and does a great job in selecting the trainers that work with Dog Adventures Northwest. I have had a couple of last minute trips and she has always had me covered and gotten us the best trainers to take care of our two dogs. John has been our primary pet sitter and sole outdoor adventurer for our guys. He is awesome! When he shows up at the door, our dogs are ecstatic... their best friend has arrived to take them to the river! When we go on trips, he stays in regular communication with us and gives us regular updates and sends tons of pics. He even spoils them with fun adventures to the dog park. We know our dogs are in good hands. Recently, Samuel has done a couple of pet sitting stays for us and we were extremely impressed. He took our dogs on 3 walks a day, each, and encouraged good behaviors (such as impulse control) when encountering other dogs. Not only was he pet sitting but he was doing some good training with our dogs! He also kept us updated very regularly and was very proactive about telling us when either of our dogs wasn't feeling well (bad tummy). Samuel has excellent attention to detail and followed our care directions precisely when it came to caring for a bad tummy and our dog recovered very quickly. He was also cognizant of our dog who has a fear of loud noises. Both Samuel and John are very trustworthy and took great care of our homes while pet sitting. Our home was in the same condition (if not cleaner) than we left it!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We're new to Dog Adventures Northwest, but after one pet sitting session, I will rate them five stars. Here's why: We have one very friendly dog, and one super-fearful-of-strangers dog who barks at pretty much any person who's not in the family. While planning a ski trip weekend, we decided to go with an in-home sitter, figuring a familiar setting would give him a better chance at success. We had our sitter, Phillip, meet Cider (the scaredy pup) prior to our weekend away twice. Cider was fearful and barking the first time, but relaxed a little bit the second time and Phillip was wonderful. He figured he would be able to make things work, and he was right. By the third day of his stay with Cider and Posey, Cider had stopped barking at Phillip, and would cuddle near him on the couch. Our dog is a very challenging assignment, and Phillip handled him brilliantly. We will definitely be using DANW in the future and already have an appointment set with a trainer to work with Cider on reducing his fear.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Our first experience with Dog Adventures NW was puppy training day camp and overnights, which was amazing! Now, we have a full-grown, high-energy pup who loves adventures! We joined Bobby's outdoor adventure group and it has been amazing. Our dog is over-the-moon excited when Bobby comes to pick her up each week. He takes the best action photos of her running, playing, swimming, and resting with friends. Bobby has been very communicative and lovely to work with. I fully trust him with Juniper. We have a tired and happy pup come home each week! Dog Adventures NW for the win!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We are so thankful we've found Kerry! Our dog, Mavis, absolutely loves the time she spends at Kerry's house and we appreciate boarding her in a warm, caring home versus a boarding facility. Along with her daily outdoor adventures to the river or running through the forest, Mavis enjoys spending her day playing with her buddies (the resident dogs), lounging on the sofa with human friends, and roaming about the house. Mavis is treated with the same care and attention Kerry provides to her own dogs, with plenty of love and attention. While Mavis is in Kerry's care, we enjoy receiving our daily pictures and updates of our big, sweet girl. As a younger puppy, we also had Kerry do some puppy training sessions to help Mavis master some of her good canine citizen skills. Kerry shared some tips and tricks with us for exercises and training to do at home. Additionally, if she notices anything off about Mavis, she is sure to let us know and always gives us great advice. We're so grateful to have someone committed to the same level of care for our Mavis as we are.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We have a very smart Australian Cattle Dog that needed smarter humans. Dog Adventures Northwest entered into our lives, and suddenly we have a dog that gets complimented on his manners at the park or in a dog-friendly shop. Dog Adventures Northwest helps bridge the gap between us and our animal, and they are able to do this in small bites that we can easily incorporate into our day to make training... dare I say... easy. If you are looking for a dog that you can bring ANYWHERE, Dog Adventures Northwest can provide exactly that in a gentle way. We highly recommend them and cannot say enough positive things about how they approach teaching you and your companion!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I had an excellent experience getting training lessons for, Rosie, my exuberant Boxer puppy. Her leash reactivity and ability to refocus was much improved from the sessions. They also took my pup on adventures with other dogs to bond and have play time. Skip the big apps and book with Dog Adventures Northwest!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Thank you to Caroline and Samuel, the great pet sitters we've had from Dog Adventures Northwest! They spoil our dog wonderfully and give him tons of attention, play, and walks. Our special pup has quirks that they've handled with confidence, patience, and understanding. We love the great communication and pictures they send while we're away. It puts our minds at ease to see how happy our dog is and know from his appearance that he's having fun.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I've had excellent experiences with the dog sitters I've used through Dog Adventures Northwest (Ellaree and Caroline). Morning and evening updates (and sometimes more!), clean and tidy house when I got home, and most importantly, it was clear they both took excellent care of my reactive pup with lots of walks, play, and cuddles. I especially appreciate the care they took to manage my dog on walks and work with her on her dog reactivity. This is a great company, with great dog sitters, and I highly recommend them.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We were so thrilled with the care and attention provided by Dog Adventures NW and specifically by Caroline. She not only took THE BEST care of our pups while we were away for two weeks, she spoiled them like WE do with love, snuggles, treats, walks, positive training, playtime... and she updated us with specific details and images the entire time! We have never had such a great dog/house-sitter EVER! Thank you a million times over for the incredible care of our pups and our home while we were away. We are so grateful to have found you!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We love DANW and couldn't recommend it enough! CJ has been taking our GSP, Mac, out for the past couple months and has been great!! He is always communicative and sends the BEST pictures of our Mac having a great day. Mac looks forward to his adventures every week and is worn out after all the running and playing. We've even noticed Mac's recall has improved significantly since working with CJ, which is an added bonus to his adventure days!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Dog Adventures Northwest is an amazing service. We have a high-energy, smart puppy who needs a task to stay focused. These adventures are perfect. They allow for great socialization with a small cohort of dogs while also taking them to a variety of new location and experiences. The dogs are allowed to roam and explore while still have basic training reinforced in a distraction filled environment. The staff is caring and passionate about what they do and treat the dogs like their own. Every time our dog sees John, Taylor, Fernando, or U.b., she squeals with joy. We feel so lucky to have found this company and look forward to seeing the photos of our pup each week enjoying the fun. Thank you, Dog Adventures Northwest.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We love Dog Adventures Northwest as much as our seven-month-old lab does. Her trainers, Verena and Fernando, are wonderful with our high energy puppy, Winnow. The opportunity to swim, run, fetch, and play with her dog pack is one of the highlights of her week. She has had weekly adventures for months, with plans to continue indefinitely. Her recall has improved noticeably since working with Verena and Fernando. The convenience of having Winnow picked up and dropped off, safely and reliably, is a huge plus. To top it off, we get helpful, regular feedback from Winnow's trainers after every session. We feel that it is money well spent on the training, exercise, and fun for our very active pup.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We contacted Dog Adventures Northwest when we were looking for some help with our highly impressionable and overly exuberant three month old German Shorthaired Pointer, Rupert. We were looking for services to help us give Rupert a solid foundation of good behaviors including house manners. Signing up with Gie for Day Camp was the best decision we could have made. Gie is easy going, insightful and experienced. Rupert has been attending Dog Day Camp with Gie two days a week for the last five weeks and we’ve been absolutely amazed by the progress we’ve seen. Rupert’s house manners, impulse control, leash manners, and so much more are all further developed than we could have imagined. In addition, an added benefit has been that Gie has also worked to help us learn so that we can continue the training she does with him ourselves. We’re so pleased with our Gie experience and we look forward to having a bright doggy future with Dog Adventures Northwest.

Gie is the most amazing & patient trainer to exist! Our puppy gets excited when we pull up because he knows that means time with Gie! We've been working with her for about a month & have already seen such a difference in our dogs behavior. She provides extremely detailed notes, videos, & links after every session or boarding so that we can properly reinforce what was learned & continue to make meaningful progress with our pup while at home. I'd recommend her to anyone.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ These folks are just the best! Our two dogs, Walter and Henry, have had weekly adventures with Jaimie and Cyrus for years. They always return happy and exhausted. Their adventure leaders are just the best. I cannot praise her or Dog Adventures Northwest more highly.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I think it's quite possible that Stella just had her best day EVER as a puppy, guided by trainer Kerry Ryan! I'm so thrilled to hear about her learning to swim and of ALL of the great training, particularly her off-leash recall. And of course, socializing her with the kids. I can't tell you what it means to us knowing she's having a wonderful time and in such good hands while we're working. She totally loves Dog Adventures Northwest.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ My dog Duke loves his weekly adventure with trainer, John, and enjoys the exercise and the companionship when we aren't home. The adventures have improved his behavior and I know he looks forward to them. Duke also loves his pet sits with John when we go out of town. Duke has a sensitive stomach and lots of requirements but John does a fabulous job taking care of everything. And Boarding is so much fun we often joke that Duke doesn't want to come home! Thank you so much for taking such great care of Duke for us!

I am delighted to write a glowing review for Jac, our wonderful dog sitter who went above and beyond for our Tonks while sitting for our 3 fur babies. We knew that Tonks, Albus, and Pennington would be in good hands. Jac took the time to get to know all three pets, asking all the right questions about their habits, likes, and dislikes, to ensure that she could provide the best possible care. We received regular updates and photos, which was such a thoughtful gesture that helped put our minds at ease. We could see that the crew was happy, comfortable, and well-cared for, which was such a relief. Jac went above and beyond, taking Tonks to the vet after a daycare accident, and keeping Tonks calm and well taken care of till our return. We cannot recommend Jac and the Dog Adventures Northwest team enough. She is a true professional, kind, caring, and excellent dog sitter. If you're looking for someone to take care of your furry friend, look no further than Jac and the Dog Adventures Northwest!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We've been using Dog Adventures Northwest now for the last year or so to help watch our dogs Ripley & Winston (King Charles Cav and Great Dane). We were a little nervous about letting folks into our home while we were away for overnight stays initially. That fear was immediately resolved as Kerry's team of dog watchers and trainers were incredibly communicative, respectful, and flexible in getting us matched with the help we needed quickly. We've searched a long time for a dog sitting service whose people we could trust and are so happy to have found Dog Adventures. Thank you, Kerry, and thank YOU Jac for most recently staying overnight with our pups - They clearly loved the time with you!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ My dog has had a great time with U.b and Jackson! Knowledgeable, friendly staff.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ These guys rule! We have been using them since we moved to Portland a couple months ago. Jamie has been hiking our buddy Dingo once a week and he always comes back worn out and happy. She sends us lots of photos of him having fun on the trail with other dogs and provides a report for how he did. Is it grade inflation when he always gets A's? Nah, I think he is just that good. They do overnight dog sitting as well, and Jamie has taken Dingo when we are both out of town. We trust her completely with him!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ It's a wonderful feeling to know that John is staying with Herman and Marcel (our two Sphynx cats) when we are out of town. Yes, we know they are well cared for, but it's also obvious how much John appreciates them and understands their individual personalities. He even sends Instagram-worthy pictures periodically so we can see how much they're enjoying time with 'Uncle John.' Some people have a gift for relating with animals and John is one of them.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Our dog has been going on adventures with John at Dog Adventures Northwest for five years and it's the highlight of her whole week. It has been such a positive experience for her to socialize, gain confidence, and have a wild time. I recommend them to everyone we know.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ The thought of letting my beloved but headstrong 5-year-old German Shepherd, Kyrie, go out into the world with someone besides me was terrifying. I had recently been working too many hours to give Kyrie the mental and physical stimulation she needed and deserved. Dog Adventures Northwest was referred to me, and after chatting with the owner, Kerry Ryan, I met the certified dog trainer who would take Kyrie for a trial adventure. I decided to chance it, and really, I have never looked back. Kerry (and trainers Jess, Jamie, Alyss, and Rosie) have all become members of Team Kyrie. Kyrie adores all of them, slightly losing her mind when any of them arrive outside my door. I have come to trust all of the trainers - especially the integrity, care and concern of Kerry - completely. In the last year of adventures there have been house alarms set off and a beehives dogs have gotten into. The alarms were disabled with calm and good cheer, while the beehive was handled with selfless bravery with no harm to the dogs. This carries over into rain adventures, snow adventures, and even figuring out how to keep Kyrie from eating obnoxious things by finding her the perfect ball to hold in her mouth. That doesn't even cover the joy I get from the beautiful photos of Kyrie and her friends I receive right after every adventure. The reports include photos, a funny but complete description of the adventure that day, and the interaction between Kyrie and her pack mates. Kerry and Dog Adventures Northwest have immeasurably added to the quality of both Kyrie's life and mine. She chooses her staff and runs her business with the utmost integrity. I have rarely been involved with any service provider whom I trust so implicitly and would recommend so wholeheartedly. Kyrie adds, "Woof!! Woof!!"

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ When I say 'Kerry' around my Maltipoo, he looks up at me and wonders when the fun begins! Kerry's love of dogs and her amazing training skills with dogs make my Levi one happy little camper. Little dogs need exercise too!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We have been sending our 2-year-old Vizsla out on adventures with Dog Adventures Northwest for years now and have been thrilled with the care, attention, and exercise he gets. Shawna, in particular, is fabulous and is now taking him out on all of his weekly outings. She really gets to know the dogs she works with so that she can individualize her interactions with them. He comes back each time with reinforced or new skills, and is even tired for awhile (which for a young Vizsla is saying something). I highly recommend DANW!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We LOVE Dog Adventures Northwest and all of the services they provide! We, like most folks, have busy, full lives so we knew when we got our Goldendoodle as a puppy we'd need some support to make sure she was safe and had a great time, even while we are traveling or had long days at work. When she was a puppy with skills to learn, she did Board and Learn while we went on vacation, and learned how to better walk on a leash (she was a big puller!) Our trainer not only greatly reduced the pulling, but also suggested the PERFECT harness and helpful training tools we could continue to implement at home. Now that she's older, she goes on one scheduled adventure a week with Cyrus and gets to romp and play with a small group (1-3) of other dogs. I love that Dog Adventures Northwest is careful to pair dogs with complimentary personalities and play styles! Safety is an obvious priority for them. She always comes home SO happy and tired. When her adventure leader comes to pick her up, you can tell it's her best friend in the whole world! Thinking about it actually makes me tear up - she just loves him and their adventures so much. We also use the house/pet sitting service when we travel; it's wonderful and SO convenient! The people at DANW that we've interacted with are all 100% trustworthy, professional and dog-loving folks. We honestly couldn't ask for more and couldn't have our beloved fur baby without them!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Our 1-year-old Coton de Tulear has been enjoying his adventures and private training sessions with Dog Adventures Northwest for several months and we're so grateful that we stumbled upon them. The trainers send updates and photos of your dog's adventures, so you don't feel like you've missed out on the day. The private training follow up notes are always clear and helpful. Absolutely love all the wonderful people that we've had a chance to work with!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ My 1-year-old working line German Shepherd has been going on weekly adventures for several months now with Jess and she comes home exhausted and happy. Jess sends me updates with video and photos and it's clear my pup is getting more stimulation and exercise than she could with me and two little kids in tow. She's swimming, running, working on recall, and playing with other dogs. Diga the dog squeals with delight when Jess' truck pulls into our driveway to pick her up. Now when I watch Jess' videos on Facebook or IG, my dog's ears perks up when she hears Jess' voice. Jess is definitely a pro with super drivey dogs. There are only a few people I'd trust with my crazy pup but Jess is definitely at the top. The backend of Dog Adventures Northwest is also a smooth operation with transparent billing and fair cancellation policies. Do yourself and your dog a favor and book an adventure with these guys!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Dog Adventures Northwest is amazing and we were so lucky to have been referred to them during our time in Portland! Trainers Cyrus and Ellaree have been taking our 1-year-old Pittie mix out for adventures three times a week and it's been a wonderful experience for all of us. They always take plenty of great photos and video of our pup romping around at the beach or in the woods. They've been working on her recall, obedience training, settling down around other dogs, and a host of other skills with her. Her excitement when they come to pick her up is **off the charts** and she comes home tuckered out and ready to nap for the rest of the day. We've also gotten some great training pointers/refreshers ourselves. Thank you DANW!! Can't recommend them highly enough.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I cannot speak highly enough about Dog Adventures Northwest! Kerry, the owner, bent over backwards to quickly find a group for our pup, Siggy, when we were struggling with separation anxiety. Everyone has been super accommodating of our schedules, and they communicate quickly and efficiently using the app. Siggy started going on adventures this fall. He adores Jamie and absolutely loves going on adventures with the three other dogs in his group. How do we know? Jamie sends us the most fabulous pictures of Siggy having fun playing with the other dogs. We appreciate Jamie's demeanor with dogs, and love that they use positive reinforcement to train recall and good behavior during the adventure. We are grateful for the exercise, stimulation, socialization, and love that Siggy gets on his adventures.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ WE LOVE DOG ADVENTURES NW and Mindy Cook! I was very nervous to trust someone with our fur baby, not only just for a day adventure, but for adventure boarding as well. Mindy Cook has been fantastic with our boy, and he absolutely loves her! Our dog is a one year old Golden Retriever that is full of energy. He goes on a weekly adventure with Mindy, and comes home a very happy and sleepy boy! She always works with him on the adventure (no jumping, recall, etc.) and we get a full update, with pictures each time. It is great socialization for our young boy. We also had our dog adventure board with Mindy and her family. Her dog and ours were fast friends. He was able to stay in her home and be a member of her pack for a week. Mindy provided updates daily, and was very responsive to my text messages, etc. We will for sure use Mindy for adventure boarding in the future, and of course continue the weekly adventures! I highly recommend Dog Adventures NW!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Mindy Cook and Dog Adventures Northwest are fabulous. Our pup has had such a great time on her adventures each week with Mindy, and she gets excellent care and exercise. I highly recommend them. I also appreciate the details they gather before scheduling a service. I feel Izzy is in the best hands.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I can't say enough good things about Dog Adventures Northwest. We moved to Portland in September, and found them when we were looking for a trainer for our then very young, slightly anxious puppy. Kate worked with him on resetting his basic training and then onto socialization sessions. He loved his time with Kate so much that we signed him up for weekly off-leash adventures (we've used Jaime, Verena, Mindy, Simone, and Clara), and they're just amazing for him!! He comes home tired, happy, and hungry. Which makes for very happy puppy parents. Amazing service, amazing communication, and seriously amazing photos of our tiny sausage having the time of his life.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We've been using Dog Adventures Northwest now for the last year or so to help watch our dogs Ripley & Winston (King Charles Cav and Great Dane). We were a little nervous about letting folks into our home while we were away for overnight stays initially. That fear was immediately resolved as Kerry's team of dog watchers and trainers were incredibly communicative, respectful, and flexible in getting us matched with the help we needed quickly. We've searched a long time for a dog sitting service whose people we could trust and are so happy to have found Dog Adventures.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We're new to Dog Adventures Northwest, but after one pet sitting session, I will rate them five stars.

We will definitely be using DANW in the future and already have an appointment set with a trainer to work with Cider on reducing his fear.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ My family has used Dog Adventures for several years and continue to be pleased with the service we receive. Not just in the pet care, but in the tending of business matters as well. Thanks so much.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Okay, I'm a little biased because back in the day I worked for this amazing company prior to working in pet nutrition. BUT! I know what it's like to be scared to hire someone you don't know to take care of your baby. And that's what these guys are all about. That's their number one priority is making sure that your pet is safe and happy the entire time they are in their care. All these guys are certified in dog training, animal behavior, and animal CPR. I wouldn't trust my special needs dog with anyone else. Believe me, I'm very particular with my dogs needs, and these guys are on it. So grateful.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Our first experience with Dog Adventures NW was puppy training day camp and overnights, which was amazing! Now, we have a full-grown, high-energy pup who loves adventures! We joined Bobby's outdoor adventure group and it has been amazing. Our dog is over-the-moon excited when Bobby comes to pick her up each week. He takes the best action photos of her running, playing, swimming, and resting with friends. Bobby has been very communicative and lovely to work with. I fully trust him with Juniper. We have a tired and happy pup come home each week! Dog Adventures NW for the win!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ My 9-month-old border collie, Doc, is always excited to see Simone and go for an adventure. She comes back tired and happily sleeps away the afternoon. Simone was great with her during the meet and greet. Doc's behavior is noticeably better since starting to go on adventures with Dog Adventures Northwest - she's having an easier time ignoring other dogs while walking and during hikes, she checks in more when she's off-leash, and she is better at matching the energy levels of other dogs when playing instead of being a furry missile.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Our Welsh Springer Spaniel has been adventuring three times a week with Dog Adventures Northwest (DANW) for four years. The owner and trainers at DANW are all trained, or training, in positive reinforcement techniques which are critical to building confidence in a young, sensitive dog. They have helped our dog truly love his time adventuring with his small, curated pack.

The trainers (Jaime, Kate, Shawna, and Verena) are full of integrity, consistency, love and kindness and can be relied upon to make sure our dog is safe at all times. He comes home tired and sleeps for the rest of the day after sniffing, zooming, and hiking until his heart and soul is content. DANW is highly professional and I will HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend DANW to anyone who asks me. Please call DANW and ask for a personal recommendation from me if you have any questions. I’d be more than happy to chat on the phone.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We have been sending our 2-year-old Vizsla out on adventures with Dog Adventures Northwest for years now and have been thrilled with the care, attention, and exercise he gets. Shawna, in particular, is fabulous and is now taking him out on all of his weekly outings. She really gets to know the dogs she works with so that she can individualize her interactions with them. He comes back each time with reinforced or new skills, and is even tired for awhile (which for a young Vizsla is saying something). I highly recommend DANW!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ U.b. from Dog Adventures Northwest is the absolute best! We do outdoor adventures, and our dogs love their hiking day routine so much. U.b. takes such good care of our dogs, is so communicative and sets great expectations of what their day will look like. Our dogs get great exercise, social interaction, and reinforcements of commands (somehow, it coming from someone else makes listening to us easier for them afterwards 😆). We love the recaps after adventures and feel our dogs are so cared for! We could not recommend U.b. and Dog Adventures NW enough! 🙌

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Fantastic organization. Our energetic German Shepherd LOVES her hikes with U.b. and we love how happily exhausted she is after each one. We highly recommend DANW.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ My dog has had a great time with U.b and Jackson! Knowledgeable, friendly staff.
