Pierre’s is a private dog club, which means we work with the same dogs on a regular basis. We have 3 dog groups (large, medium and small). Each group has an indoor playroom and a yard they have access to at all times with via doggy door.

Pet Care Technicians are responsible for overseeing the group they’re assigned to and ensuring all dogs are safe and comfortable at all times.
