Our Services
Putting Your Pets First
We offer a year-round boarding service for when you are not able to be there yourself.
From single days and weekends to longer stays we strive to accommodate all requests.
We are able to offer a dog grooming service in our newly refurbished grooming salon.
Dogs can be groomed while they stay with us to save you another journey, or can be booked in independently, and can be pampered whenever they need it. Please contact us for an appointment.
