What We Offer

Our Specialties include:

All Animals Welcome

Our Services include:

Pet Boarding – Our pet boarding service offers a safe, clean, and comfortable environment for your furry companions while you're away. Each pet is provided with individual attention, regular feeding schedules, and plenty of time for rest and relaxation. We prioritize your pet’s well-being and strive to make their stay as stress-free and enjoyable as possible. All boarding is by appointment only to ensure personalized care and proper accommodations.
Grooming Services – Our grooming services are designed to keep your pet looking and feeling their best. We offer full grooming sessions that include bathing, haircuts, nail trimming, and ear cleaning. Whether your pet needs a simple tidy-up or a full makeover, our experienced groomers use gentle techniques and high-quality products to ensure a safe and pleasant grooming experience.
Nails – Regular nail trimming is essential for your pet’s health and comfort. Overgrown nails can cause pain, posture issues, and even lead to injury. Our nail trimming service is quick, safe, and stress-free, helping to maintain your pet’s mobility and prevent future complications.
Bath – Our bathing service provides a deep clean using pet-safe shampoos and conditioners tailored to your pet’s skin and coat type. Each bath includes a thorough rinse, gentle drying, and brushing to leave your pet fresh, clean, and smelling great.
Haircuts – We offer breed-specific and custom haircuts to suit your pet’s lifestyle and your preferences. Whether it’s a seasonal trim or a stylish cut, our groomers work with care and precision to deliver a look that’s both functional and adorable.
Ear Cleaning – Clean ears are vital to your pet’s overall health. Our ear cleaning service helps prevent infections, removes wax buildup, and keeps your pet comfortable. We use gentle, vet-approved solutions to ensure a safe and effective cleaning process.
5x5 Inside Runs – Each pet boarding guest enjoys a spacious 5x5 indoor run, providing ample room to move, stretch, and relax. These runs are designed to offer a secure and private space for each pet, with regular cleaning and monitoring to maintain a hygienic and comfortable environment.
By Appointment Only – To ensure the highest level of care and attention, all services are available by appointment only. This allows us to tailor our time and resources to meet the specific needs of each pet and owner.

Great service. Dogs love being able to go outside in the run whenever they want. They treat my dogs like theirs. They allow us to bring their security blanket and their favorite chew toy. Definitely recommend and I live an hour away.

FAQ

What grooming services do you offer?

We provide full‑service grooming including bath & blow‑dry, brush‑out/deshedding, nail trim & file, ear cleaning, sanitary trim, and breed‑specific or owner‑preferred haircuts. Add‑ons (like teeth brushing, de‑skunking, paw pad care, or de‑matting) are available as needed.

How often should my dog be groomed?

Most dogs do well with grooming every 4–8 weeks, depending on coat type, lifestyle, and shedding. Double‑coated and doodle breeds may need more frequent brushing and grooming to prevent matting. We’re happy to recommend a schedule for your pup.

What vaccinations or health requirements do you need for boarding and grooming?

For the safety of all pets in our care, we require that dogs be current on core vaccinations (typically Rabies, Distemper/Parvo (DHPP)) and Bordetella (kennel cough) for boarding and daycare‑style play. Puppies must have completed age‑appropriate vaccine series. Dogs should arrive flea/tick‑free and in overall good health.

What should I bring when my dog boards with you?

Please bring, any medications in original containers with instructions, and a labeled leash/collar. You’re welcome to include a favorite blanket or small toy for comfort (non‑destructible items only). We provide clean bedding, bowls, and lots of care.

How do drop‑off and pick‑up work? Can I book specific times?

To keep pets calm and appointments on schedule, we book specific check‑in and pick‑up windows. For grooming, most visits are 3–4 hours depending on coat, behavior, and services. For boarding, we’ll confirm your check‑in/check‑out times when you book.
Running late? Please call us—late fees or rescheduling may apply during peak times so we can keep the day running smoothly.
