We're super excited to share our news!

Now 3 locations to serve you and your precious babies. 🥳

Today we closed on the purchase of Barnwell Oaks Kennels. We have worked towards this goal for years and are grateful the previous owner chose us when she was ready to retire!

We will be rebranding under our name and switching that facility to our software.

If you are on waitlist in Lexington and would like to see if we have availability in West Columbia, please give us a little time to make this transition. We will contact everyone on waitlist as soon as possible.

We’d like to welcome a past employee back from many years ago. Welcome back Olivia! She is now a trained & talented groomer. We’re grateful to have her join the team!

Olivia will be grooming *by appointment* Tuesdays & every other Saturday for now. She may pick up more days in the future.

Here’s samples of her work. Let’s get you on her books!

The “Large Run - Front Office” kennels are completed & booked for this Thanksgiving. 🎉 Thank you to our hard working team for making this happen!

These kennels are similar to what we have in Lexington by reception, but like all runs in Irmo - they are indoor only. They are best used for dogs who need a closer eye (like diabetics), calmer environment & chill dogs. Since they are located near reception, quieter dogs are best suited for this area.
