We're Local
We are committed to giving pet owners in the Wiregrass community and beyond the peace of mind that comes from knowing their beloved companions are happy, healthy, and in expert hands.
We treat pets like family
We started Rustic Paws Retreat because we are pet lovers, plain and simple. We understand the worry that comes with leaving your beloved companion in someone else’s hands — and we take that trust seriously. Every pet that walks through our doors is treated with the same care, affection, and respect that we give our own. Because to us, caring for your pet isn’t just a job — it’s a privilege.
TESTIMONIALS
Clients Testimonials
I’ve known Rusty and his family for years, and their love for animals is something truly special. When I heard they were opening Rustic Paws Retreat, I wasn’t surprised one bit — I was thrilled. This community deserves a place where pets are genuinely loved and cared for, and I can’t think of a better family to make that happen. Ariton is lucky to have them and my 2 dogs now have a place to stay when we’re away!
