When did you move to South Florida?
In 2010 while living in West Hollywood, CA, we searched for a home in WM or OP to be closer to family, we chose a home in OP we couldn’t pass up.
When and why did you open Wilton’s Manor Doggie Daycare, Resort and Spa?
Pet resorts were getting popular in LA so we brought the idea with us, using the experience we learned from our previous work we did in Los Angeles. Our intention was to provide this service mostly to the LGBTQ+ community like us, who love to spoil their fur-kids, so naturally we chose Wilton Manors for our venture.
Is it everything you expected it to be?
Not exactly, we were originally expecting mostly small breed dogs, so to our surprise, many were larger breeds, so we accommodated our facility better. We didn’t offer overnight Boarding until so many of our clients kept asking. So we include Boarding service, and we’ve been busy with sleepovers ever since.
What services do you offer?
We offer Doggie Daycare in our indoor/outdoor open-play areas, Award-winning Grooming, and Overnight Boarding in comfy Sleeping Pods. We’re open 7 days a week, 365 days a year, so we’re always around the neighborhood, whether working or frequenting the many other businesses in Wilton Manors.
What separates you from similar businesses?
We’re a small business that has employees who have been with us for years. Duvan, Felipe and our groomer Jodie have familiarity with the pups. They feel happy with us when they arrive for grooming or overnight boarding or especially for a playdate. We believe this is something that customers really appreciate.
What does the future hold for Wilton’s Manor Doggie Daycare, Resort and Spa?
More of the same for as long as we can. We love our Island City and plan to retire here.
