Good to know
- What to bring
- Your dog's food is required — we keep them on their usual diet. Medications if they need them. A bed and toys are optional (we have plenty), but you're welcome to bring their own if it helps them settle.
- Drop-off & pick-up
- We're flexible — arrange any time that works when you book. Late pick-ups outside the agreed window may incur an additional charge, though we're often flexible — just let us know.
- Payment
- Pay by card online when you book, or choose Pay at drop-off and we'll take your card on our card reader when you arrive. Either way, your receipt arrives by email.
- Cancellations
- Cancel online any time before drop-off. At least 48 hours before, anything you paid becomes account credit for your next booking (it never expires). Less than 48 hours before, message us and we'll look at it case by case — and we're always glad to move your dates instead.
