Choosing the Right Boarding for Your Dog in 2025 🏠Deciding where to board your dog can feel overwhelming. Our dogs are family, and we want them cared for with the same love and attention we’d give them ourselves. While traditional kennel boarding isn’t inherently bad, many pet parents today prefer an environment where their fur kids are snuggled and cherished throughout the night—just as they would be at home.That’s where we come in! We offer our Inn-home boarding for your pup while you’re away. Here’s how it works: • Option 1: One of our staff members will welcome your fur baby into their home and treat them like part of the family. • Option 2: We transform our daycare space into a cozy retreat, complete with a bed, TV, and plenty of blankets for an overnight campout at the shop.If this sounds like the perfect fit for your dog, we’d love to help! Spots are limited and fill up quickly, so please book in advance to ensure availability.Reach out today, and let us create a safe, loving experience for your pup while you’re away!#DogBoarding #InHomeBoarding #LuxuryDogBoarding #DogLovers #PuppyCare #PetSitting #DogsOfInstagram #FurBabyLove #DogMomLife #PupParenting #HomeAwayFromHome #HappyPupHappyLife #PamperedPup #SupportLocalBusiness

💭 Avoiding Burnout in 2025 and Beyond ✂️🐾Burnout is way too common in the dog grooming industry—especially in large, fast-paced salons. 🐶💨 We try to make it a priority to take better care of ourselves, and it’s a goal we’re sticking to in 2025. Here are our top tips for avoiding burnout as a dog groomer:✨ Schedule small breaks between each groom (or every couple of grooms). Take a few minutes to drink water, grab a snack, go to the bathroom, or just breathe.✨ Ask for help. Don’t try to do it all alone. Work with your team—find a work buddy and commit to supporting each other throughout the day.✨ Advocate for self-care. Even if you can’t control your booking schedule, carving out a few minutes between dogs can make a big difference in how you feel.Self-care isn’t selfish—it’s what helps you stay happy, healthy, and thriving in this demanding profession. Let’s make 2025 the year we prioritize ourselves, too! 💪🐾#DogGroomingTips #AvoidBurnout #SelfCareForGroomers #DogGroomerLife #PetCareProfessionals #FastPacedSalon #WorkLifeBalance #DogGroomerSupport #SelfCareMatters #GroomingCommunity #DogGroomingBusiness

Did You Know?
In Manitoba, rabies vaccines are mandatory for all dogs. Rabies is nearly always fatal if contracted (Both you and your pet!‼️ 🚨 ), making vaccination essential for the safety of your pet, other animals, and our community.
Keeping your dog's rabies vaccine up to date isn’t just a legal requirement—it’s a lifesaving precaution. Stay safe and protect those around you!
