NaJu Pets started in 1975 as a family-owned operation built around hands-on animal care and high standards. From the beginning, dogs were not a side project. They were the work, the focus, and the profession. Our roots include competitive experience and a deep respect for proper handling, structure, and day-to-day consistency. That foundation shaped the way we care for pets today, with the same attention to detail that serious animal professionals expect.
From Show Kennels to Trusted Pet Care
Our early background in structured kennel environments taught lessons that still matter for everyday pet care. Clean spaces, consistent routines, safe socialization, and calm handling are not extras. They are the basics that help pets feel secure. Whether a dog is here for daycare, boarding, or grooming, our goal is the same: predictable care that supports comfort, behavior, and wellbeing, not just convenience.
Growing With Our Community
Over the years, NaJu Pets grew alongside the families we serve. After many years at our original property, we expanded into a purpose-built facility designed to support a higher standard of pet care at scale. Today, our team includes 30+ employees, and we care for hundreds of pets each day. That growth reflects stability and experience, while still keeping the focus on what matters most: pets who feel safe, understood, and cared for every day they are here.
What We Do Today
Everything we offer is built on the same principles we started with: cleanliness, routine, safe handling, and thoughtful care.

A Team Built on Experience and Care
People trust people, and pet care is personal. Our leadership and team bring long-term experience to the day-to-day work, and we take pride in recognizing pets as individuals, not appointments. Biff Hunt has been involved in this work for decades, helping maintain continuity in how we operate and how we treat every pet that comes through our doors. Many of our team members have years of hands-on experience, and it shows in the small details that matter, like remembering routines, preferences, and personalities.
Our Values: Care, Trust, and Community
We believe pet care should feel dependable and kind. That means clear routines, clean spaces, and safe supervision. It also means treating your pet the way you would want them treated when you are not there to see it. We value long-term relationships with pet owners, and we work hard to earn trust through consistency, communication, and genuine care.
Why Our Story Matters for Your Pet
Experience reduces guesswork. Long-term family ownership brings accountability. A stable team supports consistency. A purpose-built facility supports safety and enrichment. All of those things directly affect your pet’s comfort, especially for pets who are nervous, older, or simply used to having a familiar routine. Our history is not just something we are proud of. It is the reason we can provide steady, high-quality care today.
