We are a small, warm, friendly and personal boarding facility that gives individual attention to each pet at no extra cost. All animals receive care and supervision by a licensed veterinary technician, and certified CPDT-KA Canine trainer.
Our indoor boarding area is climate-controlled and well ventilated with natural daylight. All outside time is with human supervision to encourage potty breaks, play and exercise. Housing areas are cleaned several times a day, to keep your pet comfortable and healthy.
We have Kuranda elevated beds and gel foam mats for each pet, or you may bring beds from home. If your pet needs medications or special food, bring it with you and our qualified and trained staff will ensure your furry friend receives it as directed.
Overnight boarding during holiday’s—including Thanksgiving, Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, and New Year’s Eve—will include an additional charge. This fee reflects the need for extra staffing to ensure the same high level of care, safety, and attention for all pets during these high-demand times.

Our daycare services provide a safe, structured, and enriching environment where pets can socialize, play, and relax with their human daycare attendant. Dogs do not get supervised group play unless requested specifically by the owner. Activities are designed to promote positive social human interactions, mental engagement, and overall well-being throughout the day along with rest periods in their own housing space with the goal of no overstimulation and no stress.
Drop off and pick up by appointment anytime between 7:30 a.m. and 5:30 p.m. Monday-Friday. This includes training sessions by students from the Canine Assisted Services program throughout the day to work on manner skills for your pet and a review with you at pick up.
Housing areas are private, indoor spaces thoughtfully designed to promote comfort, cleanliness, safety, and a sense of security. Each dog is provided with safe, interactive enrichment toys for appropriate chewing, along with Kuranda beds or gel cushion mats based on individual comfort needs. Dogs also receive regular human interaction and scheduled exercise throughout the day to support their physical and emotional well-being.
Before a pet’s first overnight stay, we require a day of boarding to help them become familiar with our facility and routines. This allows us to observe how your dog adjusts to a kennel environment, ensures they feel comfortable and relaxed, and helps us identify and prepare for any special accommodations before your extended absence.
*If medications are needed to be given while in our care an additional fee will apply.
*You can also add additional training or exercise sessions to your pets stay for $5 each.
Kennels are private indoor spaces. Cats are housed in separate areas from dogs for comfort and safety. All cats get human interaction and play time several times a day.
Up to three additional exercise or training sessions daily can be added to your pets boarding stay. These can be manners training, confidence building exercises to help your pet feel more confident and less anxious in all environments or just added TLC time, you choose.
