Dogs are one of the most important entities that make up Portland. Lazy Dog Crazy Dog promises to cherish, respect and show appreciation whenever your 4-legged baby is in our care.

We provide supervised playcare 24 hours a day, everyday of the year in a climate controlled facility. Our focus is on creating a safe and fun, kennel and cage free environment in which your canine friend will interact and play with other dogs under the close supervision of our experienced staff. Whether your pet visits for several days of boarding or one afternoon of daycare, they will experience a variety of activities including walking and games with our staff and other pooches. While they're staying with us, they can also take advantage of our light grooming services including doggie teeth brushing, nail trimming and washing.

Your dog deserves the best, unbiased care! 

We're nestled in the thriving Montavilla neighborhood of Portland, Oregon

About Us

We are a husband and wife team who have had years of experience with training and taking care of dogs.

Pete

During high school, Pete took care of 15 whippets for a month and saved and re-homed 3 dogs who were sentenced to life due to overcrowding at the SPCA. In college, he fostered dogs and took care of friends dogs when they went home for holidays. This is also when he became a father for the first time to a rescued abandoned pit bull puppy named Sheila-Marble.  

After Pete moved to New York City to work on Wall Street, he began boarding and walking dogs on weekends. As a result of frequenting Washington Square Park, he became adept at understanding dog pack behavior and fight prevention.

Pete is a qualified Animal Care Technician by the Pet Care Services Association.

Jackie

Throughout high school and college, Jackie boarded and trained friends dogs and volunteered at the Hong Kong SPCA and Monika's Rescue Doggies in Sydney, Australia. Due to the large number of homeless dogs in Hong Kong, Jackie worked with the local vet and SPCA by rescuing and re-homing dogs. 

Jackie has a Bachelor of Science in Biochemistry and Pharmacology.

Pete & Jackie

After Pete and Jackie met in San Diego, they walked, trained and boarded friends dogs while fostering dogs from the San Diego Humane Society. They lived 10 minutes away from Dog Beach and so spent a few hours there each day, allowing them to gain experience in understanding dog behavior and preventing fights. 

While Pete and Jackie lived in Hong Kong, they worked with the Hong Kong SPCA and Lamma Animal Protection by participating in adoption events and fostering dogs. This is when they decided to start boarding, walking and training dogs professionally. They started a kennel-free, home style boarding facility at their home and included walking and basic grooming services. 

Both Pete and Jackie are Dog First Aid and CPR qualified.

Lazy Dog Crazy Dog is a member of the Pet Care Services Association (formerly ABKA).
