Boarding • Nov 26, 2025

I had a great experience with Nelson for overnight boarding and I would highly recommend him. He took such great care of my puppy and treated her like part of the family. My dog, Chloe and his dog got along well and played nicely together. Communication was great throughout the experience, with the just the right amount of updates and photos each day. My pup came home happy, tired, and clearly well-loved. I couldn’t ask for better care and would definitely book with Nelson again.

I’m so grateful for Nelson! He responded quickly and didn’t hesitate to pick up my Oreo at the groomer and take him for a walk right after, even on short notice.

Nelson was incredible from first point of contact to pick up! (Props to Teddy as well!) I'd schedule time for Lexi under his care again, without hesitation!
