As we embark on a brand new journey around the sun, we wish a year full of tail wags, purrs, healthy pets, and the unconditional love they bring into our lives.

We are CLOSED today and will return to our regular hours tomorrow.

Beneath the twinkle of holiday lights, we know the greatest joy comes from the love we share with our family, both two-legged and four!

Ho, ho, hold on a minute! Before you dash away to that magical holiday destination, let's talk pet boarding. Booking a spot for your furry family member early means peace of mind for you and a cozy staycation for them. Research a pet boarder near you, get on the schedule, and enjoy your holly-jolly holiday guilt-free!

Festive decor shouldn't come with a risk! We love filling our home with holiday plants, but not all are pet-friendly. Take lilies and amaryllis, for instance, which are toxic to cats and dogs if consumed. Always research before bringing a new plant into your home, and be mindful of where you place these beautiful but harmful plants. Let's keep the festive cheer high and our pets healthy and safe!

Just like us, our pets love unwrapping gifts, but they don't check for safety labels! This festive season, let's ensure those wagging tails stay safe. Opt for pet-friendly, non-toxic toys and spread the joy! Remember, the best gift is a safe & happy pet.
