Our goal is to provide you and your cats the lowest stress, highest quality cat grooming and cat boarding you have ever experienced.

We approach each groom with cat behavior in mind, using whatever low stress technique suits the cat. Our goal is a positive experience for all cats.

You no longer need to take your cat to a place with barking dogs, or a vet clinic that could be stressful.

We offer lion trims, mat removal, dental care, real (not dry) baths, and other grooming services for cats. We provide nail trims, soft nail caps, and sanitary trims.

Everything your cat touches is fully disinfected for ringworm, viruses, and bacteria, and nothing is shared with other cats.

The emphasis of this puppy class is to create a frictionless transition for our puppies into life as a domestic dog.


If your puppy has completed our Level 1 Dog Raising Class, you are invited to join our AKC S.T.A.R. PUPPY PROGRAM!

This program is designed for preparing to take and pass the official AKC Canine Good Citizen test and earn the official title!


Our teaching philosophy relies on the ability for one to "believe it, in order to see it." This can be a challenge for new clients. It is easy to "see it to believe it," but to be the source of positive change, one must believe first. You can help others by sharing your story.

Keep up the great work guys. Thank you for being a part of our pack!

Group classes are a great way to work with other owners, trainers & dogs who are in agreement with how to build trust, respect, loyalty & love with your dog. Learning to understand dog society and train the dogs way is a lifelong journey. We are always here for you as you progress as a pack leader. Our clients have us for a lifetime!

Through thousands of hours of studying dogs we have experienced a few "Newton's Apple" moments that have accelerated our science & opened the door to revelations & recognitions that are more inspiring than we would have ever imagined.

Here are the two most valuable findings we have come up with. 1. your dog thinks & operates like the best people you know & 2. your dog is socially brilliant.

Congratulations! These two understandings advance you beyond 99% of dog trainers on the planet as you now have a cleaner lens to observe & learn from dogs with. If you encounter a dog trainer who "idiotizes", "brutizes" or "babyizes" your dog in their "assessment", turn and run!

It turns out many of the things that make us call someone humane: trust, respect, loyalty, love, feeding the sick & the weak, raising kids, mourning the dead etc. are things we share in common with our dogs. Things that make us call someone an animal: cruel, selfish, dishonest etc. are uniquely human. How many episodes of Unlikely Animal Friends can we watch in amazement until we realize that we are the unlikely animal friend? Next time you see a viral video of a dog saving a child from a fire or nursing another animals orphaned babies you can say, "That dog is being an animal." as you watch, not in amazement, but admiration and respect.

Realizing that dogs are better people & better parents than us allow us to get away from following the judgements of dog trainers & into the lessons of their parents. They use intimacy, honest & clarity as they teach their children right from wrong responsively as they go through life. So no need to do strategies at them or around them, you can responsively relate & communicate with them in a meaningful way. In fact, the primary source of serious behavior issues in our dogs comes from taking their babies from them & using classical conditioning as a foundation instead of healthy social etiquette.

So our takeway from all this is, if you take a baby from its mom, replace her with a parent, not an owner. That is why we teach dog raising as a foundation rather than dog training. That is why we teach dog relating for relationship building rather than dog training. This is why we are your dog's best friend.

One useful byproduct of our study is that following nature's blueprint makes it super easy for us to help our community raise puppies & find behavior solutions. So feel free to reach out. We are happy to help.

Useful Tip:If you are not sure which company to work with, a great way to select a dog trainer is to ask to meet their dog(s) in an environment that would require them to be well adjusted in a way that you would like your dog to be. The answers you will likely get put on display what makes us most different from our dogs. Humans often live in medicinal perceptions & stories while the other animals live in natures narrative AKA reality. Translation: you will hear some funny excuses. ;)
