THE K-9 COUNTRY CLUB/PARADISE PET HOTEL & DAY SPA TEAM
Caring for your pet is a significant responsibility and privilege they do not take lightly – the safety, comfort, and emotional well-being of your pets are their highest priorities.
It is our goal to care for your dogs and cats in a loving and kind manner, to be a resoundingly philanthropic presence in our community, and to continuously improve our culture with both personal and professional growth in the industry.
Do you feel comfortable leaving your dog in a crate while you’re at work? What about allowing your anxious pooch to destroy your house in a fit of separation anxiety? Or, do you have a dog that could use more human and canine socialization? Do you wish they were more relaxed when you got home? Do you think their day should be more enthralling than just a walk or two after you come home, exhausted from the grind?
If so, K-9 Country Club has your answer! We are here for you and we want your dog to come home to you relaxed and calm after a day of exercise and fun. We offer separate areas for small and large dogs. We have 16 play runs, 12 outdoor for large dogs, and four indoor for the little guys. The outdoor areas are semi or fully shaded with several in-ground wading pools (used weather and season permitted).
We strive to treat every guest like FAMILY
