PUP RETREAT AND OUTDOOR ADVENTURES

Yay for Summer! Our little piece of paradise is located near Lake Lanier and Chateau Elan. In a world filled with no barking... no jumping ... no running.. we offer an off leash space to play and just be a dog. We are a family obsessed with loving on your pup. I work from home and love playing with fur babies. My pups love making new friends and yours will be too. We are a safe and comfortable home away from home for dogs. We have 25 years of experience with puppies to geriatric dogs...untrained and incontinent...very big and very small. We provide a place to play and a opportunity to make new friends in a backyard that is fenced and perfect for zoomies.

Heather is absolutely 💯 amazing. She was wonderful to work with from the time of drop off to pick-up. We received constant communication via text, pictures and video. She is a pro with a heart for animals. Highly recommend her.

Wow! We are so grateful for the care & special attention our dog was provided. We received consistent pics & messages about our pet, who is an older, small dog who typically struggles when not at home. He loved the outdoor spaces to explore and play as well as lots of snuggles and fun walks. We will definitely use Heather to board again and strongly recommend the love & care she & her family gave our dog.

Phenomenal! They had a good plan to socialize our dogs. Having trained service dogs myself, they used the techniques professional dog trainers use to ensure safety and good socialization with other dogs. Best experience yet after using this app for 3 years in multiple states.

Thank you for taking great care of Maggie while we were at the Cherry Blossom Festival. It looked like she had a great time.

Schedule

We have made our home a sanctuary for the whole family. We always have an adult at home at any given time to care for furbabies. I am semi retired and have the flexibility to live my best life, with my fur kids.

Safety, trust & environment

My 1/2 acre doggie wonderland, is fenced and safe We introduce dogs slowly. We enjoy the yard and a soft bed as individuals or a group depending on temperament. We will walk your dog at least once in a day, so dont forget to bring a leash. Your pup will lay on our sofa and watch ESPN. The outdoor space has motion activated lights and cameras, so we won't lose sight of your pup at night.

Pets

A typical day

Our day begins with a walk... breakfast. Outdoor free play.. We have nap time... then it is time for snacks and playtime. We play inside and out. We explore...they sniff and pee... Then we have a snack. We then have some sheduled chill to prevent overstimulation... some more playtime...dinner and another walk. Pups are outside atleast 3 times a day and all have at least 1 walk...Let us know if your pup requires a run or a bath and we can discuss additional services.

0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs

over 101 lbs
No females in heat
Heather can host up to 5 pets per night
Let me know if your pets have special concerns... I need to be made aware of meds... special food mixtures... or if they can't climb stairs... Incontinent... injury or disability...I can't give my best service if I dont know what you need. Please know, I separate new pet friends, and introduce them to the group when everyone is calm. I will not expect your pup to like other dogs. Boarding is a stressful time and it is not the best time to expect them to make new friends, with dogs and people they do not know... but we will try our best to make this a great experience for everyone.
