Pet Services in Metairie Terrace

New Orleans Dog Nanny offers attentive, personalized service to meet your dog's needs and belly-rub wants. Days are structured around playtime in indoor and outdoor rumpus areas lined with paw-friendly flooring and littered with tons of toys. In addition to around-the-clock supervision, the Dog Nanny has a free webcam feed so you can watch your critter any time of day. The Dog Nanny recently extended its daycare hours (6:30 a.m. to 7:30 p.m.), and you can drop your dog off for up to 11 hours of daycare at a time. If you board your dog, he'll snuggle up in a roomful of Kuranda beds and other dogs while a staff member stays on-site as an honorary member of the pack. Your dog will feast each night and day according to your instructions with the food you supply.

Though Cascade Stables opened a new facility in 2006, the center’s rich history of horsemanship and horseback riding dates all the way back to 1981. Over the years, the stable’s instructors have been training fledgling riders in various equestrian techniques, helping youngsters achieve dreams that range from serious, such as competing in officially sanctioned contests, to simple, such as grooming a horse so that it may one day appear on the cover of a romance novel.

The round sun teeters on the barn's gable roof, threatening to roll right down. In a quick burst of wind, leaves begin clapping, as if in response to the equestrians trotting regally past. A smaller group of 10 riders wait patiently as guides corral a posse of good-natured horses, who toss their manes and lift their hooves with the joy of motion on a woodland trail ride past Wolfshohl Horse Training's gardens. Downwind, an individual lesson has a skilled trainer versing a 5-year-old about tack, grooming, and the techniques involved in English and Western riding styles. After patrons dismount at trail's end, they can question guides about holding a special event, boarding a pony, or the uncertain ramifications of using a lucky horseshoe to break a mirror.

At Mid City Animal House, a dedicated staff gets tails wagging with hands-on attention to each four-legged visitor during grooming appointments, daycare sessions, and boarding stays. With the help of their affable bulldog, Brooklyn, they ensure that each visitor receives a full day of playtime, social interaction, and newspapers delivered to them for once.

Inside the paw-friendly playhouse, dogs maintain free reign over four rooms stocked with toys. An outdoor play area provides the animals with ample amounts of fresh air, and two puppy pools allow pets to stay cool during warm days. The staff conducts a temperament test for each dog prior to boarding to ensure safety and compatibility with the other animals.

The scene is a familiar one: hotel guests lounge beside the outdoor pool as staff members filter around, offering refreshments or collecting clients for a spa treatment. However, at Pet Paradise, the pool is bone shaped and all the guests are dogs. This luxurious scene is one cat and dog owners can find at this boarding and daycare facility that has been owner Fred Goldsmith's pride and joy for a decade. The animal lover was inspired to start his own pet hotel when he simply couldn’t find a place he was comfortable leaving his bichon frise when he went on vacation.

Fred made Pet Paradise to his exact specifications, and the pet hotel's amenities reflect the loving care he lavishes on his own beloved pup. Dogs and cats can luxuriate in spa-quality grooming treatments or burn off some energy during group playtime. In the evening, pets can settle into plush bedding and feel safe knowing that the dedicated live-in staff resides just a bark away. Nocturnal kitties spend the night exploring their own private six-level cat condos while gentle spa music fills the air to keep them entertained. In case of any emergencies, Pet Paradise keeps veterinarians on-call, and in the event of a snack emergency, each staff member is a certified bacon cook.

Since 1982, Lakeshore Veterinary Hospital & Pet Lodge's team of doctors and techs have cared for their clients' companion animals with up-to-date and attentive care. Dental services improve overall pet health, and surgeries frequently incorporate lasers to quicken recovery times and ensure pet comfort. Owners can also arrange wellness plans to keep their companions healthy and happy.

The staff takes special care of canines via boarding and daycare programs. Pooches cavort in an outdoor play yard and swimming pool under the supervision of medically trained staff. Grooming services, such as shampoos, nailcare, skincare, and flea treatments, ensure pets come home smelling fresher than a daisy-shaped chew toy.
