Boarding
We offer climate-controlled boarding with Kuranda beds, three daily potty breaks, and optional play sessions. Pets receive personalized attention, refrigerated food storage, and medication administration. Our secure outdoor and indoor play areas promote exercise and socialization.
Express Baths
Express baths feature a hydro-massage, tailored shampoo, blow-dry, and bandana. This service is ideal for routine cleaning or pets needing a quick refresh. Add-ons like teeth brushing or paw pampering enhance the experience for an additional fee.
Nail Trimming
Professional nail trimming and dremeling services prevent overgrowth and discomfort. We use precision tools to ensure safety and comfort. This service reduces risks of injury from long nails and maintains paw health for active dogs.
De-shedding
Our 15-minute de-shedding treatment removes loose fur and undercoat, reducing shedding by up to 90%. This service is recommended for double-coated breeds and pets experiencing seasonal coat changes. Regular de-shedding improves skin health and coat texture.
