PDX Paws

PDX Paws is a Portland, Oregon dog care business that offers in-home dog boarding along with dog walks, guided pack hikes, and training. Owners looking for dog boarding in Portland that feels more like a house than a kennel will find a home-like setting here, with training built into the rest of the services.

What services does PDX Paws offer?

The business describes its approach as holistic. It pairs outdoor activity with structured training and a comfortable place for dogs to stay while their owners are away. Its main services include:

• Home-like boarding while owners travel
• 30 and 60 minute dog walks
• Guided pack hikes on private land
• Obedience training and behavioral modification
• Meet-and-greet evaluations before services begin

What sets it apart?

PDX Paws puts a lot of weight on training and time outdoors. Dogs can join guided pack hikes on private land, where they get room to explore and socialize with other dogs. The training side uses positive reinforcement and covers both basic obedience and behavioral modification.

This focus may suit owners whose dogs need more than a place to sleep. A dog that pulls on the leash or needs practice around other dogs can get structured work along with its regular care. Owners who want boarding and training from the same people may find that combination useful.

How do owners get started?

New clients start with a meet-and-greet evaluation. It gives the team a chance to learn about a dog before setting up boarding, walks, hikes, or training. Booking is handled by phone at 1-774-230-8596.
