PETS at PLAY

PETS at PLAY PETS at PLAY provides grooming, day care, boarding and pet sitting services. We are located in the heart of Church Hill.

We provide full service dog grooming needs. We are unique in the fact that all dogs have to be very social and friendly in order to participate in day care and boarding. Our day care dogs are never left unattended, they play all day and are never crated. Our clients appreciate we put safety first. The price for boarding includes day care. There is no separate fee to play if your dog boards. We look forward to serving your pet care needs.
