Hi everyone. I apologize if this has been asked before.

We are moving to Moon Township next month, then the following month we are going to Disney World for a week.
We have a large dog, and I need a really great place to board her for that week.
I appreciate any help/suggestions you can give me.
Thanks!!!
Steph

I use the Golden Bone in the East End, but the Misty Pines will be more convenient for you.

2523 Wexford Bayne Road
Sewickley, PA 15143
(412) 364-4122

Misty Pines Website: Pittsburgh Dog Boarding, Dog Training, Dog Park, Dog Daycare and Dog Grooming

My dogs went to Misty Pines prior to my discovering the Golden Bone---it's closer to my house.

I really like Camp Bow-Wow. My dog is always excited when we arrive, and in addition, we feel better about using them because they have webcams that you can use to see what your dog is doing (which, even if you never use them, it's just nice to know that they know they are being watched).

There are three locations, probably the closest to you would be the Southwest location. Information is below:

I've used An Inn on Rippling Run in Sewickley (2 years ago). It's a bit no frills, though they also have a daycare and you can have your dog join the daycare crew and play outside in their fenced in area. I really liked the staff, thought that they did a good job of matching dogs who play well together (they ask that you drop your dog off for a free daycare day prior to the boarding session so they can get to know your dog). I know that they treated my dog well because he would get very excited when we pulled in the driveway.

I was also going to mention Camp Bow-Wow. I've used a different location for daycare, never for boarding, but they were very good for daycare and the boarding facilities looked quite posh.

I don't have another recommendation but of all the ones given so far the one in Green Tree (Camp Bow Wow) is likely to be closest.

Thank you so much for the great suggestions!
Camp Bow Wow looks really good, and I like the web cam. What a great idea!
It's worth a little extra money to know she would be in good hands.
Thanks again everyone!

Okay, I have my dog set up, now I need info regarding the kids.

My husband will be working in Moon Township and we will be renting in Coraopolis for about 6 months, until we can find a house to buy.

Can anyone recommend a really good pre-school in Moon Twp? I have two little girls, they just turned 4 & 3 years old.
All suggestions are very appreciated.
Happy New Year everyone!
