Bowser's Best Buddy Portland, Washington

We have been taking our girl to Bowser’s since she was a puppy. Tuesday’s are her favorite day of the week. Betsy treats Pimm like her own and it’s such a relief to not have to worry about her while I’m working. I get pic and video updates during the day, like this gem. We love working with Betsy. She’s professional, a great communicator, and so welcoming to Pimm. If your pup can get a spot, their lucky!

Betsy is the best dog trainer we have ever had. She’s super easy to work with. Great on pricing and scheduling . We would definitely recommend Her services.

Any review I post will inevitably fall short in expressing how terrific Bowser’s Best Buddy is: both exceedingly professional and exceptionally warm. When owner Betsy came to our home to meet Covid-pup, Effie, I knew in an instant that she was a pet whisperer. She bonded with Effie in no time and now —5 months later— little Effie (who had separation anxiety) races to see her and her also gifted daughter Amelia. They have provided Effie with most excellent care in the following areas: pup walking, day care, training, and boarding. Thanks to them, Effie’s family circle has widened, and I know she thinks of their home as her second home (and not only because she gets to sleep in their bed when boarding!). I really can’t say enough to recommend them.

Betsy exceeded my expectations while cat sitting for me twice this year. She sent adorable pictures/videos and was quick to respond to my texts. It's clear that she has a way with animals and I will continue to use her services in the future.

Betsy is fantastic! She is responsible and professional, and she treats my pets like they’re her own. She has taken care of my cats many times, and I always get photos and videos from her with each visit. I know my pets will be well cared for and well loved when I am gone if they are in Betsy’s hands. :)

Betsy treats my dog like her own!!! The love and attention she gives him makes me feel like he is around family when not home!! The videos and pictures of EACH walk make me smile to see my dog so happy to be out and about!!! Thank you Betsy!!!

We love Bowser’s Best Buddy and find them to actually be our dog’s best Buddies. They are loving, thoughtful and kind with us and our dog! They know a ton about dogs so are also helpful coaches. Who could ask for more!

Our girl Dixie couldn't be happier whenever she is with Betsy! Betsy is absolutely fantastic with dogs and her business. Her daily updates with photos and message during walks and daycare make my day every time. We feel very lucky to have found her, and definitely recommend to anyone who is looking for a reliable, caring, professional, and awesome person for your fur babies.

Whenever I’m leaving town, I rely on Betsy to take great care of my furbaby. I feel like she treats my dog as her own and that gives me piece of mind. My dog is well taken care of and spoiled, even sleeping in Betsy’s bed. Betsy is super reliable and communicative. She sends me regular updates and pictures while my dog is in her care. I highly recommend Betsy to take care of your pet(s)!

Our dog Cliff absolutely loves Betsy! He can be shy and anxious with new people but Betsy was able to quickly overcome those obstacles and now he is overjoyed to go on walks/jogs with her and to attend daycare. He's learned some new skills as well :) Big fans of Bowser's Best Buddy!!

Betsy has been amazing with my older dog - so kind and patient. She has also made great suggestions for my dog that has greatly improved her life. I feel extremely lucky to have Betsy in my (and my dog’s) life!

Betsy is wonderful! Our dog loves her weekly walks and occasional overnights when we are out of town. Betsy is reliable and treats our dog like she is her own. She sends us photos of their outings and even works on training skills while they are walking.

Betsey of Bowser's Best Buddy is a great choice for your pet-sitting needs! My husband and I recently adopted a one year old kitty, and we were nervous to leave the cat alone during a trip we had booked months ago. Betsey not only helped us take great care of the cat while we were away--she also helped us feel confident in how our cat was adjusting to the new (temporary) routine while we weren't home. Betsey sent a sweet series of photos and text updates each day during her daily visits, showing us how our kitty was doing with the change of company. She also cleaned the litter box, petted and played with our cat, *and* problem-solved a tech issue with a battery-operated lock that was malfunctioning. We'll definitely use Betsey's services again!

Betsy is wonderful to work with! She really cares for our dogs, and has a great time playing fetch with them and walking them. She works some training into every session, and has both of our rambunctious, stubborn boys listening to her reliably. She has also spent visits when we are out of town spoiling our kitty. All of the pets love her, and get so exited when she shows up! I would highly recommend Betsy and Bowser's Best Buddy to anyone looking for a dog walker, exerciser, or sitter.

Our Bella is always so excited to see us grab her overnight bag. We ask Betsy to care for Bella whenever we go out of town. Betsy cares for Bella like one of her own. When we go out of town, we know Bella is with the very best! Betsy picks her up with all safety concerns considered, she brings her home and immediately sends pics of the excitement Bella has got all of the adventures ahead. I cannot recommend Betsy enough.

Betsy is a perfect mix of head and heart- she’s super professional (timely, communicative, and reliable) and also really silly and loving with our pup! We continue to use her services and highly recommend Bowser’s Best!

We found Betsy about a year ago - and think she is fantastic!! Our three dogs love her as well....she comes for mid day visits when we are out of town. She never fails to send us photos and a detailed review of the visit - and also takes the time to make sure things in the house and yard are in order. Betsy is organized, reliable, trustworthy and most of all, loves my puppies. I highly recommend her to any pet owner!!!

Betsy the owner of Bowser’s Best Buddy goes above and beyond in her services. She treats every dog and cat like her own. My dog has many special needs and Betsy was more than willing to make sure when she visited my dog daily to take her on a walk she would take care of her and attend to any needs she had. When my dog was sick she would ask me how she was doing even when she wasn’t “on the clock”. Betsy became like family and I had peace of mind everyday I went to work knowing my girl would have a visit with Betsy. When we had to move away it was tough to know my girl would no longer get her daily walk and loved from Betsy. I have and will continue to recommend her services to all who are looking for a caring and kind dog walker.

Betsy is a great caregiver for all of our four-legged family members. We trust her to walk our pups, feed and play with our cats and keep an eye on our house when we're gone for vacation or just a long day of work. She follows our requests for care and takes the time to make sure our animals' needs are met. I highly recommend Bowser's Best Buddy!

Always reliable & loving care for our dog!

Betsy Wilson has been dog walking for us for several years. She runs her business very professionally - careful scheduling, very reliable, knows dog first-aid. She’s also flexible and has helped us with extra visits when we’ve had an emergency. As for service, Betsy loves dogs and dogs LOVE Betsy! Our dogs go bananas when she comes to the back gate and they come back from walks acting like they’ve been on a big adventure. Check instagram to see pictures of her adoring canine clients.

I can’t say enough about Betsy and the peace of mind she brings when she’s scheduled for a visit. The professionalism and extra touches, like cute pics and videos, make my day when I’m at work. I know my Georgia is in the best care when she’s with Betsy and I highly recommend her service!

Our 6 year old mini labradoodle LOVES visiting Betsy and Amelia @ Bowser's Best Buddy for daycare and overnight stays. We so appreciate Betsy's work with him (some remedial training!) and the socialization he gets there. Our pup has gone from being a "people dog" to enjoying playtime with other dogs -- something we always wished for!

My golden retriever has been taken care by her since he was 10 weeks old. She is amazing to my dog and he is treated like her own child. She is flexible and helped me so much. Definitely the best doggie care place!

I don't have enough great things to say about Betsy. She was the perfect mix of local business meets professional service. We utilized Rover for years and realized how much we lost on fee's and random walkers we didn't know. Once we found Betsy it was a complete game changer in every way.

Betsy Wilson of Bowser’s Best Buddy is without a doubt THE BEST! Betsy has been caring for my dog, Fiona, for the past year - including daytime walks and overnight stays of up to ten nights in Betsy’s fantastic pet friendly home. What I appreciate most about Bowser’s is their professionalism. They take the care of my beloved pet seriously, and employ safety and security measures in addition to loads of love and fun. My dog Fiona always comes home relaxed and happy. On drop off days, Fiona can’t wait to greet Betsy with kisses and licks. I know she’s having a great time, and that allows me to enjoy my time away from her. Thank you Betsy and Bowser’s!

I’ve used Betsy’s service for about a year now, both walking and day care. She is one of the most reliable, kind, professional, caring and generous pet care service providers in the business. She takes the time to establish a relationship with your pet and quickly bonds with them. She not only walks your pet, but trains them along the way with positive reinforcement and repetition. Betsy’s communication is top notch and you receive updates of the walks/day care along with several pictures.If you want your pet to be loved, protected and spoiled, look no further.

Betsy is extremely reliable, available and an excellent trainer. If our dog were writing this review, she’d give her 1000 stars. Lily absolutely adores Betsy, and the feeling is mutual.

Betsy is amazing! I have two rescue dogs and Betsy is wonderful with them. She understands their unique needs and shares with us behavioral advice and training tips. Betsy is extremely reliable, friendly and flexible. We are so lucky to have her!

Dependable, professional and friendly. These are just some of the wonderful attributes of Betsy. We can’t imagine not having her in our dogs lives. We have years of her wonderful Christmas photos of our dogs on the fridge!
