What if my dog doesn't get along with others?
No problem! We offer individual care options and carefully supervised small playgroups. We match dogs by size, energy level, and play style. Some dogs prefer solo time, and that's perfectly okay—we accommodate all personalities.
Is overnight supervision provided?
Absolutely! Unlike traditional kennels, our staff lives on-site and sleeps with the dogs every night. Your pup is never alone—we're there for midnight potty breaks, thunder anxiety, or just late-night cuddles.
