Not Just Boarding — Belonging.™

Welcome to A Place to Paws™, the Lowcountry’s most serene, spa-inspired retreat for dogs.

We’re not your average boarding facility—from our thoughtfully-designed indoor and outdoor spaces, to our open-play model, and extensive amounts of human interaction—we’re focused on your pet’s health, safety, and happiness above all else.

Your pet’s experience begins and ends with wellness: every guest receives a full sanitation process on intake and release, ensuring a clean, safe environment. For stays two nights or more, a complimentary bath and nail trim is included from our PawsSpa™—because every pet deserves to leave looking and feeling their best.

Located within PAWS Center – Premier Animal Wellness Services, our 10,000 sq ft facility combines luxury care, modern design, and the peace of mind of having Buckwalter Veterinary Clinic just upstairs.
