⚠️ Announcement ⚠️ Temporary hold on new clients.

Ellie’s Playhouse has been so fortunate to have such a dedicated community of people that see and appreciate our superior level of care and consideration for their pet families ❤️🐾

If you have reached out recently and not recieved a response, we deeply apologize. Being a husband and wife solo operation, instances of “life happening” significantly affect our ability to stay in business.

We have been dealing with significant medical issues with many visits to specialists for diagnostic testing. In light of still searching for answers to explain Marissa’s decrease in a major organ’s function as well as recurring miscarriages, we are taking a step back from the business until we have more answers on what is causing these significant issues.

Thank you for your patience, understanding, and relentless support. We love our community and can’t wait to return to operating at full capacity again ❤️

Tick season is alive and well! 🐞 We found this critter taking a stroll on one of our pup’s toys after they came in from some outside adventures 🐶

Be sure to keep up on your flea and tick preventatives and stay well-educated on the risks 🤨 The lovely vets at Boyd Lake Veterinary Center were very upfront and honest with us about our preventative options and truthfully told which major brands that have been shown to trigger epileptic episodes in dogs with a genetic predisposition for seizures. When Scout had a seizure at two years old, we were prepared, stayed calm, and got him in for a check up to confirm he is just fine. For our family, the risk of an occasional minor seizure greatly outweighs the long-term diseases that can potentially be transmitted by ticks during our frequent outdoor adventures 🐞

Every family is different and it’s important to be prepared for whatever may come your way 🙌🏼

Paw grooming sessions are just $15 per pet! 🤑 We can get those grinch feet looking nice and get a good nail trim in while we’re at it 🐾

Benefits of regular paw maintenance:

✔️ Spot injuries and irritations before they
progress (ex. foxtails, abscesses, broken
and detached nails)
✔️ Restore natural paw positioning to
alleviate joint stress
✔️ Increase paw pad traction to avoid slip
and fall injuries
✔️ Less debris brought in at potty breaks
✔️ Decreased stress for dogs that tend to
nibble at nail overgrowth or paw hair

Nail trims without hair trimming are just $10 per pet as well 👏🏼

Beginner’s grooming available on weekends. Sweet Charlie got a haircut and a play date with us this afternoon. It was a fight to get some trust built to groom his face but we got there with just a few scratches on my arms 😄❤️

In a 1 hour visit, we were able to get his face trimmed, body hair thinned out, nails cut, mats removed, and a sanitary trim on his private bits.

About Us

Ellie’s Playhouse was born from a vision of giving pets all the comforts of home and owners the peace of mind knowing that their home and loved ones are in good hands. Owner, Marissa, has a lifelong passion for animals often being found snuggled up with an encyclopedia as a child. Together with her fur (and scale) babies, she’s made the leap to follow her passion and share her talents with the Salt Lake County community and provide the care she always wish she had with her own family.

Marissa has her undergraduate degree in Zoology as well as her Master of Business Administration which allows her to bring advanced knowledge of not only animal behavior and biology but also professionalism and business etiquette. She has volunteered to work with numerous wildlife organizations and has extensive experience across many phylogenies including canines, felines, reptiles, amphibians, fish, and birds.
