Jenni & Dani, owners - All About Pets Grooming. All About Pets is a full-service grooming salon located right next door to EcoPaws! Jenni and Dani believe that every pet deserves the best care while they are at their salon. They offer full-service spa packages, specialty cuts, bathing and nail trims as well as several other specialty services. Stitch loves to go next door to greet the dogs and although he doesn't require much in the way of hair care a shampoo, blow-dry and pedicure make him feel like a new dog!! 
Tami & Janet, owners - Dogtopia of North Raleigh. Tami and Janet love dogs. Plain and simple. And what better way to spend time with those you love than to open up a dog day-care with boarding and a salon? Dogtopia provides a healthy, playful environment and Tammy, Janet and their employees care for each dog like it were their own. Socialization is such an important part of having a happy dog and at Dogtopia the dogs are grouped so they will enjoy each other and the play is supervised closely. Stitch loves day care, and is in a play group with dogs similar in size and playing style. After a full day of playing, snacks and naps, he is exhausted and happy. And if we are looking for some entertainment during the day, we can watch the dogs via webcam and see how much fun they are having! 
We love these guys!! Support them either through donating or volunteering for a day to help build a fence by contacting them at unchaindogs.net
