The Yuppie Pup - Small Dog Boarding

08/12/2024

Our rainy day indoor musings include a snuffle matt, ball chasing, and couch potatoing (which should be a word).

*As always, if your pup wasn't included in the photos they didn't enjoy the camera. We don't ask them to paw a written consent form, but if I get an eye roll... I'm stopping. This should always be for fun. lol

"It was a hot one, like seven inches from the midday sun." Well, that might be an exaggeration. But for Alaska, this weekend couldn't have been nicer out, and we enjoyed every moment of it!

Sharing our Christmas photos just in time for the New Year. Mrs. Claus was gracious enough to make a special appearance. 😉 We hope you all had a fantastic Christmas and have a blessed New Year!

Last year’s Christmas Eve Pajama Party was so fun that I wasn’t as excited about our theme this year…until we put it up. Mrs. Clause is making an appearance & I couldn’t be happier!!!!! We hope you are full of peace & joy this Christmas. Cute puppy photos to come. 🐶🎄🤶

Our pup boarders had an amazing Thanksgiving Feast! As we reflect on the years gone by, we are overwhelmed with gratitude for each and every one of our cherished clientele. Your presence in our lives has been a true blessing in more ways than we can express. Thank you for being a source of joy and support for our little pup boutique!

Another huge THANK YOU for voting us as Best of the Valley in Dog Boarding. We had a blast at the banquet last night! I’m also grateful that I get to work with the best mom in all the land. 😊 We are blessed for sure!

We got puppies!! Nicole has welcomed Arlo, the charming merle Aussiedoodle in the family, while Ruthie has welcomed the delightful blonde bombshell, Noelle. We just had to include them in our pumpkin patch photoshoot, especially with Charlotte lovingly cradling these adorable floofs.

10/05/2023

Greetings from our pumpkin patch! This fall has been absolutely delightful, and we're relishing every moment of sunshine that comes our way.

*If your furry companion isn't showcased here, it's because they chose not to participate in the photos. We prioritize and respect their consent. :) This is all for fun!

We WON! To say thank you to those who voted just doesn't do it justice. WE ARE SOOOO GRATEFUL FOR YOU! We're going on 7 years in this fun, crazy dog world. And, there are so many wonderful pet boarding facilities here in the Valley. All different, all needed. We're in a good group of people who care deeply about this industry and the type of care we provide. Here's to many more years of loving on your fur babies!!!

To say I’m excited doesn’t sum it up! I’m so grateful to clients that cheer us on when we want to grow, and understand we need a vacation too. Vegas has been amazing and the Shutterhound Conference starts tomorrow!!! Ahhhhhhhh!!!!!!!

Last notification, I promise! I can't believe we're only 6 weeks away from learning from the best dog photographers in the world at the Shutterhound Conference. (Dog Breath Photography pictured). When I bought the ticket in January it seemed forever away, and now here we are. I'm bursting with excitement!!! And, having a vacation ourselves sounds like a great idea too.

I can't wait to capture your loved ones with the knowledge I will gain from this. Thank you for supporting us and understanding that we also need to take time out to learn & grow. You're the best!!!

We still have some space in August for reservations. Pups need to be picked up by Monday, August 28th. We need a few buffer days to get ready to go! Reservations will begin again Monday, Sept. 11th. Call with any questions!!

A little clouds didn't stop this July 4th pool party. We still had a fantastic day and hope you did as well!

07/03/2023

Keep your pups (and cats) safe out there! We have personal pets that do not love this time of the year too; we get it. You can never do too much to keep them safe. Have a fantastic 4th friends!

06/27/2023

Indoor fun & sunshine. What could be better?!!

05/01/2023

Alert, Alert! It's all good things. :)

We hope you had a wonderful Easter! Time for a quick coffee break and some cute dog photos to get your afternoon dopamine rush going. I can't help but smile when I look at them. :)

We celebrated Coco's 10th Birthday! It's fun to see the pups grow up with us. Coco has been boarding with us since 2017! She only gets prettier with time. Happy birthday, girl. You are so loved!

Good advice!!

With Easter coming up - we wanted to share a quick reminder:

Rabbits are an 8 to 12 year commitment - they require lots of space, attention, and care. They are rewarding pets, have so much personality and should be purchased - or adopted - with the knowledge of what having a house rabbit entails.

This Easter opt to purchase the chocolate buns 🐰

We have exciting news!! We're going to the first ever Shutterhound Photography Conference in September! My favorite Pet Photographer Dog Breath Photography is putting it on with a host of other greats in this industry.

It's no secret that I, (Nicole) love dog photography. Of course, I’ve had a captive audience. lol My desire is to grow in this skill and not only create better photos of our boarding pups, but maybe use this talent outside of these walls someday as well. However, in order to dream big, I need more education! What an opportunity this is to be with like minded photographers and learn more about this niche industry.

We are closing for a couple weeks to have time to clean & do repairs on our facility, (maybe even our houses too, lol) and then head to Vegas for this amazing adventure!

We will be closed August 28th – September 10th.

We will do our best to remind clients of this so you can plan your vacations accordingly. Thank you for understanding that we also need to take a break and fit in opportunities for personal growth in our industry. I’d love to start going to a pet conference every year! I’m beaming with excitement as I type this. Happy New Year with many new possibilities!!!

It’s a Christmas Pajama Party!! The only rule at our PJ party was no pup had to wear PJs if he or she didn’t want to. Fun times only!

We hope that your Christmas was as lovely as ours. We are spoiled with the wonderful dogs we get to care for. Enjoy their cuteness!

12/17/2022

Tell your friends!! We had a last minute change in our schedule which opens a spot up for Christmas! Unfortunately, our long waitlist consists of those who need both holidays and we can't take anymore pups over New Years. If you need care for your pup, and this schedule fits your needs, please call us!

*Pick up must be on the 26th. From thereafter we are full again for New Years.
*Pup must be fully vaccinated. Distemper/Parvo, Rabies, & Bordetella.
* Under 30 lbs and friendly with people.

We hope this is the answer to someone's prayers this holiday season. Merry Christmas!
