LakePAWse is a small local business that provides high quality in-home care to toy and small breeds. Owned by a veterinarian with more than 20 years of experience, we aim for your pet to feel like home with a family to live with and give the outmost care and attention they deserve. All our four-legged guests have a free run of my home and fenced yard, unless there is a special reason for the exception! 

Pet parents of little ones are especially worry about dog facilities that are sort of one-size-fits-all, which puts your small dog in a potentially dangerous situation. Small dogs usually experience the most fun when paired with other dogs of a similar size, which it makes playing easier and less threatening.  Sensitive or timid dogs also need to have their personality taken into account, since they may feel threatened by large dogs looming over them or rough play.  Dogs who feel threatened might bite or lash out, and that can create a volatile situation in a matter of seconds.  In the end, what might seem like an unnecessary process of assessment is a crucial factor in keeping your small dog safe. Our mission is to offer you peace of mind while providing a loving, fun and safe environment for your toy or small breed. We provide the kind of personalized care and one-on-one attention for your furry baby that you won’t find at larger daycare centers and kennels. We understand your pet’s necessities, even when they have special needs (like medications, chronic diseases, separation anxiety and senior).

If you have a spoiled pet, we got you! Our house has special areas, beds and toys dedicated to the needs of smaller and/or older breeds. Here they also have soothing music, company during human-working hours, open or often access to potty breaks, fun playtime, pampering moments with the family and a quiet and low-light environment for a good night of sleep.
