Daily updates so you can actually unplug.
A photo and short text update each day of your dog's stay — sent straight to your phone, no app required. The whole point is that you stop checking and start enjoying your trip.
Candid shots from the couch, the yard, the kitchen — wherever your dog has chosen to be that hour.
Sent by SMS or email. Your choice. No login required, no app to install, no portal to remember.
If something's off — a skipped meal, a limp, a quieter mood — we tell you the same day. No surprises at pickup.
What our cadence looks like
Most clients tell us the updates are 'just enough' — not so few that you worry, not so many that they're noise.
Quick 'arrived safe, settling in' text within the first hour. First photo within a few hours once your dog has relaxed.
At least one photo and a short note. Usually mid-morning or after the evening walk — whenever the best moment shows up.
Cute story, vet question, mealtime quirk, or a 'just thought you'd want to see this' moment.
Confirmation text the morning of pickup with a recap of how the stay went and anything to watch for at home.
More updates, on request.
Anxious flyer? First-time boarder? Senior dog? Tell us at the consultation and we'll bump to twice-daily photos and a short evening recap at no extra charge — for the whole stay.
You hear from us first.
Limp, skipped meal, loose stool, behavior change, anything we notice — you get a call (not just a text) the same day. We don't escalate to a vet without your input unless a life is on the line.
