Dogs love to be part of a pack and enjoy being engaged and active. This is especially important when pets are away from home. Our attendants will ensure a healthy and engaging experience for dogs of all breeds, ages, sizes, and personalities. Even the mellow dogs enjoy being outside to explore the yard, sit in the sun, and receive love. We include 2 potty breaks and 4 group play sessions of 30 minutes each for our lodging guests.
Our play sessions are supervised in small groups with a maximum of 5 dogs per day attendant. Our day camp and lodging attendants receive training and certification in all aspects of dog care, health and safety, including doggie group play and socialization. Each of our guests is assigned to an appropriate play group based on temperament, energy level, and age. Between play sessions, guests return to their suites to rest up for the next session. At Southern Paws, we’ve designed an environment that’s perfect for play!

I am so glad that I reached out and made my baby girl Layla an appointment. Layla is a very small Chihuahua, she only weighs 5 pounds. She seemed a bit nervous when she first went in but when they were finished with her, she was very calm, and was very relaxed. I am so glad that I took her. I even made her next appointment. I absolutely love the fact that I was able To her during her whole appointment via camera screens that are in the lobby I look forward to doing a lot more business with Southern Paws. Thank you all for your kindness today.Diane Whitaker2023-11-08My Westie came went to Southern Paws for grooming, and he came home looking the best he has in years. The check in and check out process was efficient and friendly. I will be using them again soon for grooming!Olivia Alaniz2023-11-03My dog Leo was very matted & dirty. He had not been groomed in over a year. We had previously taken him to places that completely shaved him, simply because they did not want to put in the extra work that was needed for a dog like him. He is a Great Pyranees and it is not recommended to shave a dog of his breed. We brought him to Southern Paws in hopes that he would be groomed in the proper way. They far exceeded our expectations! They called me every time they made a change or had to do something different. They kept me updated on all of his grooming experience! I HIGHLY recommend Southern Paws of Piedmont! They did wonderful! Thank you Southern Paws for taking such good care of my pup!Tisa Ladd2023-10-22Thanks to everyone at Southern Paws in Piedmont.
