Traveling for Thanksgiving, Christmas or New Year's? Your dog can spend the holidays in a calm home setting at one of our select locations instead of a kennel, with daily walks and Rex for company.

He took over full-time boarding of her pet when she was hospitalized. He told us not to worry about the dog. He was a godsend at such a stressful time.
She's spending her vacations in a fun, loving home instead of being boarded. I never have to worry about our dog or feel guilty.
He walks Henry 3 times a week. Henry even stayed with Peter for 6 nights and he didn't want to come home!
