About Us
Our StoryHow We Got Started!

Our Story
Both growing up with pets in our homes, we knew we wanted to have a dog involved in our lives. We met at Northwestern College in Orange City, IA, and after graduating and getting married in 2013, we added our first pup, Callie, to our family. A year later, we found ourselves moving out to a home in the country for space for our dogs to run and began having litters of Vizslas. Cody is an avid pheasant hunter, and we enjoy everything from watching our dogs work in the field to hanging out with us on the couch at home. With adding a few more Vizslas to our family, having a baby, and moving to Central Iowa, we have settled down here and are excited for what we have to offer you here at Big Creek Pet Lodge.
We consider this business as our passion for taking care of other dogs just as we care for our own. Our hope is that you would find this place a home away from home for your companion, and look forward to a chance to partnering with you in taking care of your pup(s)!
What Drives Us

We desire to serve you and your pet by giving your dog the outstanding care and love they need. Our belief is that we are set apart through the space we have to offer your dog, and the attention they will get from each of our members here at Big Creek Pet Lodge. As a family owned business, it is our goal to make every pet feel at home. We strive in flexibility and the ability to adapt to meet the needs of every individual pet that comes in our care. Thank you for considering and choosing us to love on your dog!
