3 Dogs Boarding & Daycare Stay Pet Hotel
Home Away from Home Dog Boarding
Dog Boarding Services
Kennel-free boarding. Private suites too!
It's our philosophy to provide an environment that's as close to home as possible. We feel it's crucial to every dog's well-being to play, socialize, learn and rest at their own tempo. At 3 Dogs Boarding & Daycare and Stay Pet Hotel, we get to know your furry companion during their stay. We go the extra mile to introduce them to new friends, love on them and meet both their physical and emotional needs. During the pandemic, 3 Dogs is offering only daycare – no boarding.
Give your pup a true home away from home while you're away. Check our rates for boarding. See our temporary COVID-19 policies for drop off and pick up, and new dog evaluations. We do our best to keep all safe during COVID-19.
Now offering express boarding drop off to existing customers. Simply complete our Boarding Intake Form before your departure to give us all the information we need to care for your pup. New customers, please complete the New Customer Application Form well in advance of any boarding needs. It takes time to get your pup set up for the behavioral evaluation and free trial day.
Stay Pet Hotel – The Deluxe Boarding Experience
Stay Pet Hotel offers a unique combination of services and features. You can choose between kennel-free boarding and private suites – private suites are limited, so reserve early! Doggy daycare is included in the boarding fee. Daily activity ensures all the mental stimulation and exercise your dog needs to have a happy staycation. And with 24/7 onsite staffing, your pups get lots of love and are never left unattended.
Located under 10 minutes from PDX, Stay Pet Hotel is a convenient stop on your way to the airport. In addition to the Portland Metro Area, we have regular customers who come from Eugene, Salem, Corvallis and Vancouver.
What Sets Stay Pet Hotel Apart?
Imagine traditional dog kennels where you have to pay extra for a 15-
minute walk and human interaction. At Stay Pet, we have a full-fledged daycare facility to which our boarders have full access. That’s right. Access to 8000 square feet of outdoor play structures, doggy wading pools, sprinklers and sandboxes. And 1500 square feet of climate-controlled indoor areas with chairs, comfy beds and yet more play structures. Even better, access to social interaction with staff and fellow pups all day long.
And don’t forget the 24/7 supervision by trained staff. While other facilities advertise 24-hour care, in reality they may be only monitoring their guests remotely via baby monitor or camera. By contrast, our staff are awake and with our guests at all times.
Our staff are on the alert for
- Health issues
- The rare medical emergency
- Stressed or anxious dogs
And they respond immediately. Because they are onsite, they catch what might otherwise be missed, and they catch it early.
Special Needs Dogs Welcome
Our trained staff are experienced at administering medication and dishing up special diets. Regarding medication, we ask only that you bring the meds in their original, labelled container. Regarding special dietary needs, simply bring the food and specify for us how much and when to dish it up.
We offer the medication and special diet services at no extra charge.
We can supply premium dog food for a fee. However, we recommend you bring your own. Keeping your dog on a consistent diet helps to prevent allergies and belly aches. All dogs are fed separately to reduce the risks of resource guarding and mooching.
Private Suites
Reserve early to ensure we have a private suite available.
Our private suites are perfect for shy dogs or those most comfortable with their home pack mates. The suites are designed to be calming and comfortable with raised bedding, plenty of space and fresh water. Feel free to bring your dog’s favorite things: bed, toys, blankets, etc. Or we are happy to provide ours.
There's lots of natural light coming from high windows and through the suite door.
Suites are cleaned and sanitized between guests – your dog’s health is important to us! We pride ourself on consistently exceeding industry standards for cleanliness.
We work hard to create a stress-free environment. We play music specifically selected to soothe anxious pups. Also, our staff provide lots of individual attention. Finally, we work carefully and quietly to minimize stress and anxiety.
Kennel-free Boarding
Pups who are used to the daycare scene really enjoy our kennel-free boarding option. By night they have the run of the sleeping areas. Our furry guests are free to sleep on a bed next to a buddy or two or three, on a cushy chair alone or on the floor.
It’s their choice. What better way to keep your furry companion happy, entertained and safe while you’re away?
Getting Started Boarding at Stay

Testimonials
Recently, I boarded my two senior dogs to Stay Pet Hotel. They were new to kennel-free boarding as well as doggy daycare. The staff really made them feel at home by helping them integrate into a group of slower moving dogs.
They say you can't teach old dogs new tricks, but at Stay Pet you can! My big dogs wound up enjoying their stay – especially all the staff attention.

FAQ – Dog Boarding
No. For the safety of all our guests, we don't allow dogs in heat on the premises. Cage-free boarding and daycare are only possible when take these precautions. If your pup isn't spayed/neutered at nine months old, then we'll ask you to keep them out of boarding and daycare until they are.
We've noticed higher anxiety levels in both our canine guests and their humans when they part for the first time after the COVID-19 lockdown. Many dogs have become accustomed to having their human companions around 24/7. Know that we're aware of this unique situation and doing our best soothe and entertain our guests.
No, our third-shift staff are awake and in our boarding area with the dogs.
The dogs sleep on futon beds, papasan chairs and even the floor if that’s what they prefer. We have plenty of bedding available, though most of the dogs prefer to pile up together on a couple of the futons.
We have crates available if that’s your preference, yet people rarely choose that as an option. Also, Stay Pet Hotel offers private suites for sleep time.
We carefully evaluate every dog that stays with us, not only to find out if our setup is appropriate and safe for them but, also, to make sure that they are comfortable in our environment.
We invite owners to watch as we conduct the initial temperament evaluation. This way you’re seeing what we’re seeing.
Special diets and meds are no problem. We have many years of experience working with dogs requiring medication and/or with special dietary needs.
Bring your dog's food and any medication when you leave your dog for boarding. We'll take care of the rest!
No, there’s no up-charge for managing your dog’s medications.
Don’t worry, we don’t feed the dogs in groups. We have several large crates that we set up at feeding times where every dog is fed separately. For dogs that cannot be crated, we have a number of sectioned-off areas where they can eat on their own.
We only require you to bring your dog’s food and any medication they are currently taking. (Please bring medication in its original packaging.) If your dog runs out of food, we do have house food we can provide at an additional cost.
There’s no need to bring bedding – we have plenty of it, and there’s always the possibility that personal bedding could be damaged.
We don’t allow toys, bones, treats, etc. in the group. If you’d like to bring something for your dog to chew on, we can always separate them for a short period of time to enjoy personal treats or toys.
We have plenty of food bowls, puzzle bowls and slow feeders as well. No need to bring your own. Just let us know if you have a preference.
Yes, we offer multiple dog discounts. Please visit Dog Boarding Services (https://3dogsboardinganddaycare.com/dog-boarding-portland/#boarding-prices) for information on prices and discounts.

Because we're no-kennel, our guests are typically much more active than they are at home, and they can lose weight even though they're eating regularly. Please consider bringing extra food in case your dog needs it. We have a large veterinary scale to help us track how your pup is doing.
