Pet care experience

Your dogs favorite resort 🐾

Dogs are my life and passion, I have been working with dogs my whole life, no matter the breed, age, special needs, size we do it all! I am a certified Master Dog Trainer, I recently graduated from Highland Canine. I also graduated from AK9I as a K9 handler, I do this full time with my wife, Mara, who is also experienced. I have worked at two different board and train places here in the past and am very confident that what I am able to offer here is much better quality! Every dog that comes through our doors becomes part of our pack, we will treat your pets like they are family. When I am with a dog for boarding or training we are giving each other a lot of attention and energy and will stay engaged and active providing a loving and personalized experience for your furry friends. WE DO NOT just crate them 21 hours a day! Your pups safety and well being will always be our number one priority! We will always do slow and safe introductions, your dog will never be left unsupervised. We use top of the line cleaning and sanitation for our yard, carpets, toys, bowls, and surfaces, and things of all type. Our goal is to provide a safe and loving environment for your pet! We also offer doggy daycares and socialization groups for dogs at all stages. We believe socialization is extremely important for a dogs development and happiness.

I do this full time with my wife Mara, Pet care is our life. It’s not just a job or a way to make money, Dogs, Animals are my life’s passion! I went to two different schools and spent years just learning dogs behaviors and how to really understand them. Pet care and training is a 24/7 365 thing for me!

Safety, trust & environment

We have a German shepherd who lives here and is 6 years old who is a big ole sweetheart, she typically just minds her own business. We also have a 1 year old Bernese Mountain puppy who is the absolute sweetest goof ball, she has been perfect to help other dogs get socialized who needs it or if your dog just needs a bestie she is your girl.

Pets

A typical day

We have a huge fenced in backyard, with agility, doggy pool and a shade tent! We love to stay active and engaged outside and provide amenities that will keep your pup safe in the summer heat. We can do walks with your dog, we live in a wonderful neighborhood to do so, we have a million dog toys to play fetch with or tug with! Again we are a very active family and know the importance of getting your dog exercise, we also have toys for mental stimulation such as puzzle games! And if you’re okay with it we love making our guests their own special pup cup.
