Is to create an enriching environment for dogs that provides stress-reducing activities while they are away from their families. We believe in a kennel-free philosophy that provides our guests full access to our unique home-style environment. We believe this kind of care allows all of our guests to be who they are and to bond with both our nannies and other guests, building lasting friendships and social skills.

We have been taking our westie, Juno, to the Dogwoods for several years. I recommend the Dogwoods to everyone. I love the large grass running area, the waterfall and pond, indoor living area. I feel so much better having Juno in this environment vs. the small concrete play areas of other daycare companies. Deb also grooms Juno and is the best groomer we’ve had in over 25 years of owning westies. You won’t find a better place for Daycare & Grooming of your dog! – Debbie R.

Dogwoods owner, Deb Normandeau has had an interest in dogs and making them look good for as long as she can remember. Her childhood memories are filled with stories of her dressing her first pet, a smooth red dachshund named Daisy Belle, in doll clothes and pushing her around in a stroller. This may be part of the reason she went on to complete a degree in Fashion Merchandising.

Eventually, influences from a co-worker with experience showing dogs, introduced her to pet grooming and caring for dogs. Deb shortly there after returned to school for professional grooming and began working with veterinarians. In what feels like no time at all, she set off on her own, providing grooming care of the highest standards to her own clients.
