They're like family. They treat each pet as if they were their own. We love that our furry son is able to run in a field and play with other dogs, and he's not just cooped up in a kennel 24 seven when we leave him overnight. He always comes home exhausted and happy. read more

LOVE LOVE LOVE!!! Our dog leaps out of the car when he stays here. The team is great, and we NEVER worry about his care. read more

Joyful Noise Dog Boarding - Pet Sitting Near Me - Albany, Oregon

This was my pug's first boarding experience, so we were both nervous. It took her a little time to settle in, but with their tender, loving and patient care, she did well. They even kept in touch with me to let me know how she was doing. read more

Super happy with this boarding option in Albany, OR. Big dog kennels are separate from where the little ones are housed. Separate outdoor fenced areas for play. Countryside feel but only a few miles from downtown. Great communication. I'm excited to learn about Joyful Noise Dog Boarding. read more

We were very nervous about leaving our dogs for the first time but Maddie and Chris are amazing and made us feel much better about leaving them. They are trustworthy and priced incredibly fairly. We came back to very happy and tired dogs! I've seen others complain about their communication and yes, they don't answer their phone right away but if you leave a voicemail, they always call back in a reasonable amount of time. They are busy taking the best care of the dogs! read more

This may or may not be a pleasant and humane place to board your dog, but we CANNOT recommend them because of our experience trying to get them to communicate with us. Customer contact at this business is mostly through the young women who are directly caring for the dogs, who seem to be competent in their skills with the animals. However, the management of the place seems to be completely disorganized regarding booking and confirming dates on the calendar. The only way to communicate is by voicemail, and many days go by before calls are returned. In our case, confirmations of a second boarding were forgotten or misdirected while we waited for a call back. Our dog WAS here for a week, but we couldn't get a good sense of how her stay went when we picked her up. A phone call halfway through our trip was never returned, of course. Business seems to be good in that much of the calendar is full; in this case someone should be put in charge of communication with customers. Until then we CANNOT recommend this business. read more

We like and trust Joyful Noise Dog Boarding so much that we drive our dog over 80 miles to take him there! We trusted Kathleen and now we trust Maddy and her team with Scout. He loves to race around in the pasture and be a "farm dog" while he's there! Thank you from the Schumann family. read more

Our puppy loved her stay at Joyful Noise and Chris, Maddie and staff were very patient with us and our anxiety . Now that we have some place safe to leave our baby Koda, we're already thinking about another trip! read more

New owners Chris and Maddy and their staff are outstanding. We drive a hour each way and our dogs are always excited when we get there. We feel that our dogs are treated as if they were their own. We want to thank you all for your caring services. Buck and Rusty's Humans. read more

Best Ever! My neurotic Beau is always happy there. He is not always so. Even with his companion,Tristen, Beau is usually fearful. He gets over it quickly at Joyful Noise and is happy. Other plalces he is fearful thoughout. Joyful Noise is a godsend!!! read more

Kathleen and her staff are extremely caring and helpful. They allowed my dogs to share a kennel. They are brother and sister and are rarely separated so I really appreciated this. My pups are a bit spoiled and get peanut butter in a bone at night. They did this for my dogs to help keep them on their normal routine. The dogs stayed 5 days and I had to board them again for one day about 4 days later. They were excited to get out and see Kathleen's staff. I highly recommend Joyful Noise Dog Boarding and will definitely use them again. read more

Nymeria just loves going here! She's been here for both doggy daycare and for boarding. There's plenty of space for doggies to play safely outside, the kennels are spacious and kept very clean, and very reasonably priced. The overall feel of the staff and owner are so friendly, personable, and clearly passionate about what they do. My only suggestion is with the phone calls, as I've occasionally found it difficult getting someone to pick up to be able to reserve time there. Still worth the wait though, as I won't take my doggy anywhere else! :) read more

Joyful Noise Dog Boarding - Nymeria saying hello to the friendly farm animals on the property. - Pet Sitting Near Me - Albany, Oregon

Kathleen loves dogs, and it shows! Her kennel is the only one my dogs have eagerly run in to - the best endorsement that can be given. I don't trust anyone else with my dogs. read more

Best place ever! I am always hesitant about leaving my dogs anywhere because they're so scared of other people and dogs, but Kathleen knew what she was doing. When I went to pick them up it was music to my ears that Kathleen was not only able to play with my more scared dog, but also able to interact with my dog who doesn't trust people. Best of all both my boys got to have lots of fun. This is officially the only place I'll be taking my dogs from now on. read more

No stars. My dogs were there for some time and upon our return, we have acknowledged that they are not themselves. It is day three of them not eating or playing. When we take them out to play they simply stand there. We take them out to the restroom and they will not go either. One is howling throughout the day and especially in her sleep. This behavior is not anything we have seen before. Dissatisfied with this dog boarding place. read more

We have bloodhounds, which are known for liking THEIR family and can be difficult to board. The owners not only cared for our pups, it was obvious she was knowledgeable of the bread and handled them with supreme emotional care. By the end of the week they were even giving her kisses :) it was obvious she enjoys what she does and will treat your dog like her own. This facility honestly cares about your dogs experience and it is not just a job for them. read more

If you love your dog, this is the place in the Albany/Corvallis area to bring them. We bring our yellow lab twice a week for the day so that she can socialize with other dogs and get exercise. Kathleen is caring and knowledgable with decades of experience as well as a degree in animal science from Oregon State. The dogs get lots of play time in the large pasture area and Kathleen pairs your dog with other dogs for the best experience. 5 stars for Joyful Noises is a no brainer. read more

Just dropped off our pups at Joyful Noises. This is the third time we've used them to board our dogs, the longest time being almost a month while we were on our honeymoon. We love Kathleen! She takes the best care and genuinely loves animals in her care. Plenty of grassy fields to romp around! read more

I will be dropping my pup off tomorrow for the second time with Kathleen! She is truly amazing. She accommodates where ever she can. She always understands that when I get back and I want my pup right away. She takes amazing care of the dogs and makes sure they all have play groups according to there personalities. I hate leaving my dog but I at least know he's in care with her. I will be using her again in June for a longer period of time and shell have two of my dogs then :) read more

This is a supper kennel. My needs are for 4-6 hours during the day on a fairly short notice when I have to attend meetings at OSU. Kathleen responds to emails quickly, the rates are more than reasonable, and the kennels are clean, with more than enough space (both sheltered and open). She works to permit dogs with similar temperaments being allowed to play together. Kathleen seems to really like animals and I feel comfortable leaving my two "kids" in her care. read more

Very educated and friendly lady! The kennels were adequate in size and was set up nicely. She has a veterinary student from OSU help assist part time which is great for the dogs! I would definitely take my dog back here. She is very reasonably priced and the best in Corvallis! $17 a night or $15 if you're a student! read more

Up in Corvallis for the weekend and was able to drop my dog off there. This is a great boarding place and I'd use it again.

This place is great. They were able to take my two dogs Buddy and Emma on short notice and the rate is definitely reasonable. Fantastic staff and property. Will definitely be using their services again. read more

I have boarded my dog here multiple times and she has always done well and seemed happy upon picking her up...Joyful Noise is basically like going to summer camp! She gets to play at least once a day with other dogs (ones that are deemed to be good playmates), the kennel is clean and well kept, and Kathleen, the owner, is knowledgeable and kind. I trust her completely with my baby girl. And, the price is affordable too. Highly recommend! read more

I've used this facility for over two years for two different dogs. I've found it be be well run, clean and Kathleen the owner is personable and really takes good care of your pooch., read more

Our dog stayed over the Christmas holiday and was happy and well cared for. Rates are excellent, and the staff is friendly.

I have a shy 2 year old border collie mix who just spent a week and a half at Joyful Noise. Kathleen was wonderful about accommodating my next-to-last-minute appointment and provided great care. She and her staff made the experience painless and my pup came home happy and tuckered out. I also greatly appreciated the student discount. Thanks again, Joyful Noise! read more
