We understand and respect your decision
But we have a staff to protect so we suggest flex feeding
That means your dog is flexible about their diet
Flex feeding allows you to choose a different food temporarily while your dog stays with us
We're happy to help find a good option!
Spay and Neuter Policy
We love welcoming dogs of all shapes and sizes into our facility, but to keep things safe and happy for everyone,
*we are not able to accept intact (unspayed or unneutered) males or females once they’re over 12 months old.
​
This isn’t about being picky—it’s about creating the best environment for your pup and all their furry friends. Dogs who are still intact often show stronger hormonal behaviors like marking, mounting, or guarding, which can cause stress in a group setting. For females, going into heat can be especially challenging in a boarding environment, not only for them but for every dog around them.
​
By welcoming only spayed and neutered dogs, we can make sure playtimes are relaxed, safe, and fun—just the way they should be!
Our goal is always to give your dog a positive, stress-free experience while you’re away.
