About Our Pet Care Boarding Facility

The dog living room is cozy and furnished with an open indoor play area leading to the kitchen and an open door to an adjacent small run space, and then a much larger monitored run area where dogs can run and frolic with their friends;  All  areas are fenced and gated. The living room wood stove provides a lovely warmth and comfort for the elderly and tired dogs after play.   Please note that we have AIR CONDITIONING for the hot days of the summer!!!  Pack play time is all day everyday except for a much needed 2 hour doggy nap time.  We provide crates and separated sleep areas for dogs not accustomed to crating.  Daily on leash walks are provided on our beautiful rural country roads and parks.
Our main goal is to be providing a home like feel for your pet while providing plenty of play and leisure time accordingly to dogs of all ages and sizes:  Our resort gives new meaning to the word boarding, daycare, and kennel!   Natural green products are used in Pawsh.

Our cat suites are separated from the everyday going on of our canine buddies.  Each suite provides a cat tree, a cozy chair, and a window for your kitty to gaze out upon our beautiful acreage! Natural wood pellets are provided as litter. Dry and wet cat food are provided at no extra cost.

Upon your arrival, you will soon realize the quality of care offered at our pet daycare and boarding facility!

(Cat room showings at 7PM  - must arrive before 7).   
All bowls, blankets, beds, and toys must be left at home.  All DOG kibble must be individually bagged per meal and LABELLED with instructions regarding daily amounts (feedings). A dog boarding with us for more than 14 days may be accompanied with a labelled container of food rather than separate baggies.  MEDS - PILLS MUST BE PUT IN A PILL PACK WITH LABELS, MEDICAL AILMENTS, AND INSTRUCTIONS CLEARLY PRINTED (Pets will not be accepted unless pills are put in a weekly/monthy pill container.  INSULIN (WITH BACKUP INSTRUCTIONS) MUST BE DISCUSSED WITH VET IN CASE OF (STRESS RELATED) LACK OF APPETITE.  INSULIN MUST BE PACKED IN AN INSULATED CONTAINER.  ALL INSTRUCTIONS, RE. MEDS OUTSIDE OF PAWSH HOURS, MUST BE DISCUSSED AND ACCEPTED BY VET AND OWNER.
New dogs (independently from their owners) will be individually evaluated and introduced slowly into the pack on a scheduled trial day.  We DO accept "drop and go" dogs, that have had no trial day:  They MUST have an emergency contact and preferably a referral.
No aggression or problem barking allowed.  If an aggression or chronic barking issue arises in your dog, he/she will be muzzled.
Flea and tick prevention are mandatory prior to each stay and are the responsibility of the owner.
All vaccinations must be up to date prior to boarding for both cats and dogs.  Please note that the Bordetella vaccination does not cover all "bacterial and virus" kennel cough.  
​Up to date vaccination records are the responsibility of the owner and can be turned away if not provided.
Please note that we are not staffed for grooming so it is the responsibility of the owner to book before or after appointments at their groomers for their pet; Brushing and bathing are done on request at no extra cost ONLY if there is time to so during slow season.  We can only provide kitty brushing on request during slow season with kitty's own brush.
We thank you in advance for your patience on pick up and drop off as we have to put most dogs inside before we can bring your dog out to greet you; The pack outside (and inside) will react and continuously and loudly bark because of your car and or presence; Dog martingale collaring and leashing for pack walks are currently done by our front gates (until husband works down his honeydo list and creates a more workable spot). Please allow 5 minutes extra in your etas for payments or in case we are dealing with more than one client at a time.  We sometimes accept pets that are not booked and that are last minute dc dog drop offs on WEEK days but cannot guarantee this in our busy season.  All weekend dc dogs must be booked ahead of time.
