Wedding chaperone service · POA
Your best little guest, there for the big moments.
If your dachshund is part of the family, it is only natural to want them at your wedding. We can collect them, help them arrive calm and photo-ready, stay with them through the parts of the day you choose and make sure they are comfortable, safe and cared for throughout.
Every wedding is different, so we build the service around your plans, venue and dog.

Emergency boarding · POA
When plans change suddenly.
Sometimes families need help at short notice. If we have availability, we will do our best — but we must still know everything about your dog and be confident that the setting is suitable and safe.
Emergency care is always subject to availability, assessment and your dog’s individual needs.
