Not a Fit?
If your dog isn't the right match for our setup, we’re happy to recommend other trusted providers.
⚠️ If any dog shows aggression during their stay, you will be contacted to pick them up immediately.
A 50% non-refundable deposit is required to reserve your dog’s stay. Bookings are confirmed only after the deposit is received. The remaining balance is due before or at drop-off via Venmo, Zelle, or cash. Cancellations made at least 72 hours in advance are eligible for a refund, excluding holidays which require a 5 day notice to allow individuals on our waiting list for holidays the opportunity to book. No shows are non-refundable, as a 72 hour notice is required. We do not offer refunds for early pick-ups.
An up-to-date emergency contact is required. In case of an emergency, we will make every effort to reach them. Please ensure your contact is reliable, and let us know if any changes occur.
📸Photos & Updates
We love capturing your dog’s fun moments during their stay! Whether it’s a themed day, holiday event, or just everyday fun, we’ll send you updates with photos via text or email - no need to reply, they’re just for your peace of mind. We also enjoy sharing happy guest moments on our social media for everyone to enjoy.
We’re closed for pick-up and drop-off on select holidays (New Year’s Eve & Day, Easter, Independence Day, Thanksgiving, Christmas Eve & Day). Please plan to drop off at least one day early when scheduling. Holiday stays book fast - advance reservations recommended. Our holiday seasonal charge is $55/day for the above holidays.
As always, dogs sensitive to loud noises, including fireworks, will receive extra care and calming activities during holidays.
