Our structured daycare program accommodates dogs aged 6 months and older, focusing on socialization, exercise, and positive reinforcement training. Dogs engage in supervised group play, multiple potty walks daily, and crate-free napping. We prioritize safety through rigorous evaluation processes and maintain a clean environment with daily disinfection protocols.
Puppy Pre-School
Designed for puppies 8 weeks to 6 months, this program combines daycare with foundational training in crate training, socialization, and basic obedience. Puppies learn polite behaviors while playing with age-appropriate peers, with optional 'Train & Play' sessions for targeted skill development.

Professional grooming services include baths, haircuts, and breed-specific styling using premium products. Our small, supervised grooming room ensures personalized attention, with options for nail trimming, teeth brushing, and handstripping for terrier breeds. Appointments are required for all services.
