Pet care experience

Welcome to our ‘barking’ lot—where every tail wag tells a tale! We are Rita & Phoenix, and this is our Puppy Paradise! With over 10 years of combined experience in professional dog care and training, we're not just experts—we're full-time passionate pooch enthusiasts dedicated to providing the highest standard of care for your canine companions. Our pack leaders Aya and Mahla, have welcomed hundreds of dogs in our loving home over the years! Aya, our wise and nurturing Emotional Support Animal (ESA), specializes in rehabilitation, helping both humans and dogs recover from past traumas with her calm and loving presence. Mahla, the newest 'paw'digy in our family, is a budding ESA rescued six months ago. Her journey from rescue to recovery has been nothing short of paw-fection, and she’s quickly learning the ropes of offering comfort and support to all of our guests and returning pack members. Our facility boasts a huge, secure backyard where dogs can unleash their joy, sprint, and frolic to their hearts' content. But that's not all—when it’s time to hit 'paws' on the outdoor fun, our climate-controlled lounge area offers the perfect retreat for your pets to relax and recharge in cozy comfort. We believe in personalized care, which is why we provide regular pup-dates to keep you connected with your furry family members while you’re away. Our dedication to going the extra mile ensures that every dog’s individual needs are not just met but exceeded with a touch of love and a lot of tail wagging. Flexibility is key in our book! Working from home allows us to be incredibly accommodating with your scheduling needs. Whether it’s a sudden travel change or an unexpected delay, we’re here to ensure your peace of mind with our adaptable and understanding approach. So, let your dog have a 'barking' good time with us, where every stay is a tail-wagging adventure and every goodbye is just a 'paws' until next time!

Phoenix and Rita were so great! They took great care of our girl. Our girl has super bad allergies during season changes and they kept her nice and itch free by continuing her allergy regimen. They sent multiple daily updates and pictures/videos. We definitely recommend these two if you would like your furry babies to be well taken care of.
