Safety, trust & environment

Safety is our NUMBER ONE goal and focus! This is why we use crates when it's time to rest, or when other pups are coming and going. We offer a more structured environment for those who don’t do well with free roam or group play scenarios. Some dogs have never been crated, and we DO work with those dogs to help them feel SAFE and comfortable when it's time to rest. Also, many dogs are not "dog friendly", so we take every precaution to offer a calm, safe and happy environment for everyone.

Information Joel & Janelle E. would like to know about your pet

It's important for us to get a copy of your pups updated shot records prior to arrival via email. We require all of our boarders to be fully vaccinated and prefer if they are on a flee and tick regimen. If your pup is showing any signs of illness, runny/bloody stools, vomiting, runny nose, cough, lethargy, not eating or drinking, etc PLEASE consult with us before bringing them. Canine Cough (like a human cold) is highly contagious amongst dogs. Same with Giardia. We always want the fur babies in our home to arrive healthy so everyone gets to go home healthy and happy💞🐾🙏

A typical day

We love to stimulate your fur baby emotionally and physically by running them in our large, fenced yard. If they love fetch or frisbee we LOVE that. Or they may just prefer lots of exploring the yard or walks. We NEVER leave your pup/s unsupervised even in our fenced yard. We are always with them for ANY outside time.

JT and Janelle took the cutest pictures of my 2 dogs! I felt so much peace knowing they were in safe and secure hands with years of professional dog expertise to keep them happy and healthy. I would definitely book with them again.

Joel and Janelle were great to work with! Unfortunately our flight got delayed due to weather and they worked with us to ensure our pup was taken care of. They didn't blink an eye when we asked if our dog could stay longer, they jumped right in to help. What a relief during an already stressful situation. I would highly recommend them for your pet!

Nice operation here. Nicely fenced 1 acre yard and entire lower level of the house is climate controlled area just for a limited amount of dogs. Rotating exercise shifts an no risk of dog/dog conflicts. They clearly love dogs. Daily pictures and very responsive to texts. I will be using them again.
