What a fun filled weekend at Southern Pines Pet Lodge! Our ops manager, Rini, did a fantastic job setting up and facilitating this year’s Egg Hunt Extravaganza. The pups thoroughly enjoyed the colorful treat-filled eggs. Thank you to all our clients who signed their pups up for this activity! It was a fun way to spend the day with your pets. We hope you all had a Happy Easter.

Happy Sunday from us and our new 8’ tall fencing. We snuck in some fresh upgrades right before spring break to make our space even safer for your favorite furry family members.

We have a waitlist for Easter weekend, but still have some spots open during the week of spring break. Call or email us now to reserve your spot or to set up an evaluation.

Raise your paws if you’re excited for the weekend.

It’s going to be a busy one here at Southern Pines! Make sure you are booking your holiday plans now for your pups. We have a waitlist for all large kennels now for Thanksgiving, and are filling up for Christmas fast. Our small dog room does still have space for our pups that are 35lbs and below for both holidays.

If you’re an existing client, put in your request on the portal soon. If you are new, please call or email us to schedule your evaluation day so we may clear you for services.

And as always: check your pets vaccine records to be sure they are up to date. We require all four of the big ones. Rabies, canine influenza vaccine, bordetella and distemper/parvo vaccine. We hope to see you at the lodge soon!

Anyone who has visited us at Southern Pines has likely met Rini, our operations manager. She is that familiar face when you first step in the office. She is the person your pets know and love. She is the one to help organize play groups, screen new clients and keeps the front end of our business moving. She wears many hats in the pet care world, in and outside of work. This past June she decided to take her Certified Professional Animal Care Provider exam, and this past week we received the news that she has passed! We are so proud of her for always going that extra mile to show her commitment to the field, earning these accolades and furthering her knowledge in all things pet care. Congrats, Rini!! You are a rockstar to us everyday, but today you are extra shiny.

You all are keeping us busy, but we try to keep it chill with these misters and pools. We have a full house all this weekend and coming week. Daycare and evaluations are on a temporary hold between now and the 7th. Please be patient for those who call in this holiday week, or email us at [email protected] if you need a swifter response.

As we all gear up for the holiday, please make sure your dogs (and other animals) are put up safe in the evenings. Even the typically calm dog will surprise you with fireworks and loud parties. For all of you that have your pups - and a couple kitties! - with us this week, we are set and ready to keep these pets comfortable. Be safe and have fun out there!

Our office pup, Ryder, wants to send out one more big reminder that the 4th of July is right around the corner! If you're needing to go out of town for a few days, we have VERY limited kennel space available. Please call us soon if you need your pup boarded. Our kennel offers nearly sound proof walls, with white noise going all night long to help cover any remaining noise coming through. Pups sleep soundly all night long.

We also encourage you to call your vet TODAY to re-fill any anxiety medications for your pup! Those fireworks start as early as June 30th and we want everyone as safe as possible at home.

2022 - we completely renovated the building and our signage. 2023 - it is all about the digital footprint. Thank you so much , Stoney Digital, for creating such a wonderful website.

We have got a full house this weekend! Everybody is ready to get out there and play. Make sure you are planning ahead this summer for your needed dates because we are booking up on weekends in advance. We still have some openings for daycare during our weekday playtimes.

If you are new to our kennel, please email us or give us a call to set up your evaluation day. We require your dog be up to date on Rabies, Distemper/Parvo, Bordetella (kennel cough) and Canine Influenza (CIV) to join us for any services.

We look forward to seeing all your beautiful pups faces this summer!!

These handsome boys would like to remind all of their friends that there are now just over 30 days before July 4th! Today is the day to call your Veterinarian to get your pups calming/anxiety medication. Please don't wait until July 1st, as many vets will not be able to fill a prescription that quickly.

Every year, over 5,000 dogs nation wide escape their homes in July due to getting scared of fireworks. Let us help keep them safe! We still have openings for the July 4th week. Our cinder block building muffles 95% of the outside noise, plus we always have fans, radios, and white nose going to block out the rest. Give us a call today to schedule your visit!

After all that rain, we are thrilled to get back out in the sun for some playtime. What better way to celebrate those shiny rays than a big ol’ dog pile?

We have a few spots left for Memorial Day, so call in during business hours or put your requests in through the pet portal to save your spot. Happy Saturday!

Today is a very special day in our household. Our oldest turned seven years today! He loves Southern Pines Pet Lodge just as much as I do. My dogs are my family, so its always been important to have a boarding facility that I trust when they can’t travel with me. I love that my team and I have created the perfect space for just that. So without further ado, happy birthday to my Francis J - my inspiration in making this place better every day.

When you care for dogs both BIG and *small*. 💜

Sign up today for an evaluation day. We do them Tuesdays through Saturdays. Check your vet records for: Rabies, Canine Influenza, Bordetella and Distemper/parvo. Pet parents love us because we give them peace of mind, but the pets love us because of the play time.

•TWO• Years. Two years of growth. Two years of hard work. Two years of finding and training a great staff. Two years of renovations. Two years of dogs on dogs on DOGS (and the occasional dog loving cat) passing through these doors. We had a record breaking day on Friday of 71 dogs in the building! It was such an amazing way to bring it on home to today. Today marks the start of another year full of plans for our little green building in the pines. Maybe even building another one to match. We love sharing every day - all 365 of them - with your beloved pets, and we love providing a safe and happy place for you to bring them. Happy Two Year Anniversary, Southern Pines Pet Lodge!

Happy Easter and Chag Sameach from the dogs. We at Southern Pines Pet Lodge hope your holidays are wonderful, and that our spring breakers have safe travels.

With the second anniversary of purchasing Southern Pines coming up in the next week, it is mind blowing to me how far we have come! We had a wait list for not just Easter but also all of spring break starting two weeks ago. This is not just to brag, but to also make our customers aware that the word is spreading! Dogs (and their parents) love our staff and our updated facilities, so holidays and school breaks are booking out much sooner than they have in the past. Please look at your upcoming travel plans, because summer vacation and July 4th will be here before you know it. Book your reservations for your pups as you book your own hotels and rentals, and always check your pups vaccine records to be sure they’re up to date for their stay! We look forward to seeing you all at Southern Pines Pet Lodge.
