Luxury Unleashed

Luxury Unleashed Every dog receives personal care, from the pampered to the playful! BOARDING A DOG IS NOT A FUN PROCESS. Period. We totally understand. Will they be safe?

We're a husband & wife team of lifelong dog lovers offering boutique boarding & weekly Playcare on a peaceful, tree-filled property with spacious, grassy play yards. Leaving your dog behind is never easy. Whether it's a family emergency, a long-overdue vacation, or a work trip you can't reschedule, boarding often feels like the last resort. It's scary, it's emotional, and it brings up a thousand q

uestions. Will someone notice if they're not eating? Will they be loved the way I love them? At Luxury Unleashed, the answer to all of that is yes. We are a husband-and-wife team who care for every guest ourselves as if it were our own. We do not hire staff. Every single dog is under our personal supervision at all times, and we live on-site. Shannon has spent over 35 years in the pet care industry and has not only designed luxury dog care facilities on multiple continents, but has every possible certification available in the pet industry. Dennis is a retired pharmacist with a calm presence and a deep love for animals. We operate this business because dogs are our passion and our purpose. We specialize in caring for dogs who can't just stay anywhere. In our eyes, every dog has unique needs, and we honor them all. Whether your dog is a high-energy ball-chaser, insulin-dependent diabetic, a senior with a heart condition, a rescue who's terrified of new experiences, or a puppy just learning the world, we meet them with patience, structure, and love. We've cared for them all over the years:

Dogs who require perfectly timed medical care. Seniors who need soft landings and gentle monitoring. Anxious rescues who've never felt safe until now. First-time boarders learning what trust looks like. And heartbroken, worried families who swore, "I could never board my dog." Whatever your dog needs, structure, softness, medical expertise, or emotional safety, we're here for them. And we're here for you. You do not have to worry when you leave your dogs at Luxury Unleashed. This is not a kennel. It is a quiet, clean, climate-controlled sanctuary. Our luxury cottages are designed for comfort and calm. Our large, tree-lined play yards provide space to run, relax, and explore. We supervise everything, and we know every dog by name, personality, and need. Our Thursday-only Playcare Program is reserved for a hand-selected group of dogs who thrive in consistent, well-matched playgroups. If you'd like your dog to have weekly fun they can't find anywhere else, this exclusive program might be the perfect fit. Available only on Thursdays, this isn't typical doggy daycare. It's a curated experience for dogs who need connection, consistency, and enrichment. Every dog is hand-selected and matched into balanced groups based on energy and temperament. We create the perfect blend of play, purpose, and predictability in gorgeous play yards filled with grass, trees, and even a pool. From spirited retrievers to chill loungers, we mix the right dogs for joy, not chaos. If you are still unsure, please read our Google reviews. These are real clients who were once in your shoes, and who left with peace of mind and happy dogs. We are here so you can leave town without guilt. So your dog can stay somewhere safe, loving, and personal. So when life pulls you away, whether unexpectedly or by choice, you have a place you can trust with your whole heart.

This is the day we met our precious Yvette.

She was terrified and shut down, trembling in fear. The PAWS volunteers could not get her out of the crate she was dropped off in, and the situation was bleak. They called me because of my love of and experience with traumatized Chihuahuas.

This poor, sweet girl had been neglected and abused and was just broken.

(Here is a video link so you can see our entire first meeting https://youtu.be/0codcotXj-s?si=57ib8ygh6aYs0das.)

Many of the dogs that stay with us here are rescues who have had similar experiences. If you have ever loved a dog like that, you already know the questions that come with it.

Where do you board a dog like that?
Will the people understand why she freezes when someone moves too fast?
Will they notice if she does not eat, and take the time to sit with her and try again?
Will they recognize the difference between nervous and truly shut down?
What if she panics in the middle of the night? Will anyone be paying attention?

We understand those questions. We understand them on a soul level.

That is why we created Luxury Unleashed. Not just for the confident, playful dogs. We love them for sure. But we also provide a safe harbor for the ones who need something quieter. We provide a loving place for the ones who need familiarity, time, and patience. We are here for the ones who need someone to pay attention while they adjust...because this is vital. If these fragile little souls are not handled carefully, boarding can feel like being abandoned and forgotten. Again. We simply will not let that happen here. Ever.

So you have ever been afraid to leave your shy, rescue dog, know that we understand. You are not alone.

If your dog needs something different, we are here.

Oh and the second pic? That is Yvette right now, sitting next to me as I type this post. Ah what love can do!😍

We don’t just hand out Milkbones...we offer room service. For real.

Our gourmet dog meals and snacks are all made with organic, grass-fed, human-grade ingredients and served with care.
Think: handmade chews, fresh pupsicles, seasonal barkuterie boards, and yes, they can be delivered right to your dog’s cottage.

Because enrichment isn’t just about activity.
It’s about joy. Surprise. And feeling like the most important guest in the resort.

The ones who don’t fit the mold.

Not every dog loves chaos...and that’s why our Playcare is different.

Some dogs want to run.
Some dogs want to snuggle.
Some just want a place where they belong.

We create small, handpicked groups where dogs can thrive, not just survive.

📲 Playcare happens every Thursday, and spots are limited.
