The Ultimate Dog Boarding Experience in Portland including Adventures and Snuggles

The Wild Pup House is your dog’s home away from home and we offer the highest level of care.

Top-Tier Treatment

Expert Care

Toby is Pet First Aid, Animal CPR, and Wilderness First Responder certified with 10 years experience running WPA. She’s also certified in Reiki for Animals and Animal Psychology.
Confinement Free

Full run of the house. Dogs are treated as family members just like Toby’s own 3 dogs. Guests are welcome on all furniture and are rarely left alone.
Large Yard

Dogs can freely enjoy our double lot, fully fenced yard. There are toys to play with, outdoor sofas to lay on, and they can go in and out as they please.
Sleep Anywhere

Dogs can sleep where they want, so if your dog is used to sleeping with you, they can also sleep in bed here! The more cuddles, the more comfort for them!
Adventure Add-On

Add adventures to your dog’s stay. Whether they want to attend Raven’s Pack or Wilder Pack, they are welcome. That’s a 6-7 hour adventure day!
Fur Friends

Raven, Jonah, and Wally welcome their friends over their house. So long as your dog gets along easily with others, they’ll always have their friends at home and on adventures!

“Knowing my dog was in such loving hands made all the difference. During his stay he had the time of his life!”

“As this was our first time leaving him, we were understandably anxious, but Toby quickly put our worries to rest. She is truly a godsend, radiating warmth and kindness. Knowing my dog was in such loving hands made all the difference. During his stay, he had the time of his life! The way Toby interacts with her dogs and my pup is nothing short of special. He returned home happy, healthy, clearly not wanting to leave his new friends. I highly recommend Toby and Wild Pup Adventures to anyone looking for exceptional pet care. She is an extraordinary human who genuinely loves what she does, and it shows in every interaction. Thank you for making this experience so positive for all of us!”

Welcome to Our Home!

Dog boarding made personal

We know how hard it is to find great care for your dog.

You can stop searching now.

You want your dog to be loved, cared for, and treated with the same attention and devotion you give at home. That’s exactly what Wild Pup Adventures provides.

Every guest stays at the Wild Pup House, which is my home, alongside my three beloved friendly dogs. Boarding here means round-the-clock care, cozy beds, a spacious fenced backyard, and a welcoming environment where every dog is treated like family. Most Wild Pups quickly settle in and truly consider the Wild Pup House their home away from home.

As part of our Portland Dog Adventure services, boarding pups can join adventure days, exploring trails, swimming, hiking, and enjoying off-leash play. Every dog receives personalized care, socialization, and exercise in a safe, loving environment.

Accepted Clients enjoy priority booking through our Client Portal, making dog boarding in Portland simple, reliable, and stress-free.

A message from Toby, Owner of WPA

Pup Parents,

At Wild Pup Adventures, boarding dogs isn’t just a service—it’s my home, heart, and lifestyle. Every Wild Pup that joins us is treated the same as one of my own three fur kids. I usually welcome just 1–2 guest dogs at a time so I can give the highest quality care and really get to know a dog’s personality, every quirk, and what makes them happiest.

Days at the Wild Pup House are full of care, calm, and adventure. On adventure days, dogs hike, swim, explore, and play—then settle into cozy moments in the evening knowing they are loved and safe. When parents come to pick up their pups, most of them try to sneak back in—they don’t want to leave! (Yes, this happens more often than you’d think.)

My boarding service is about more than care—it’s about creating a home where dogs feel valued, comfortable, celebrated, and endlessly loved, while enjoying adventures that make their tails wag and hearts sing. It’s a comfortable place dogs love vacationing in over and over.

I look forward to caring for your dog. Feel free to read more about me and about the values WPA operates with.

Sincerely,

Toby Joy

“We think she loves Toby more than us! …Your pup will be the happiest he/she will ever be.”

It makes me both so happy and jealous boarding Hanalei with Toby because she gets to spend everyday doing something amazing with all her best buds, which is also why we think she loves Toby more than us. It warms my heart and puts me at ease when we’re away knowing that Toby will never kennel our baby. She gets nothing but the best treatment from Toby: cuddles in bed, daily outings, quality grooming time, and plenty of play time. I would not hesitate for a millisecond about sending your baby to Toby when you’re away. Her rates are great and your pup will be the happiest he/she will ever be. Toby is a god sent dog whisperer. She bonded immediately with Hanalei and treats her like her own child. Read more…
