About

The Best Home Away from Home for Your Furry Best Friend

Playful Pups Retreat is a premier pet resort, and we’re committed to providing a healthy, fun, and nurturing environment for your dog while you’re away for the day or on vacation. We provide personalized care to best meet your dog's needs which includes fun and enriching activities, and lots of love and attention.

At the heart of what we do is our compassionate and caring team of highly trained pet lovers. Each team member is carefully selected and undergoes rigorous training in dog body language and behavior, along with pet safety, CPR, and first aid. 

We provide continuing education, including professional training and ongoing coaching by industry experts, as part of our enduring commitment to keeping pets happy, healthy, and safe, and our desire to maintain a quality team that never stops learning and growing.

In fact, our owner was the first person in PA to earn the Professional Animal Care Operator Certification, which is the highest internationally recognized level of achievement in the pet industry.

In addition to pet care training, we provide customer care training to ensure our team clearly communicates with every pet parent as we partner with you in the lifetime care of your pets.

Remember, you deserve peace of mind, and your dog deserves someone who will care for them just like you would!
