Comfortable Dog Boarding for Short and Extended Stays
Our dog boarding accommodations are designed to give pets a clean, secure place to rest between activities. We offer standard indoor suites measuring approximately 3×6 feet, as well as XL luxury suites measuring approximately 6×6 feet for dogs that benefit from additional space.
3x5ft Indoor Suite
6x6ft XL Luxury Suite
The boarding rate applies to the first pet in the suite, while additional pets sharing the same suite are charged at half price. We provide food, bedding, and other basic necessities at no additional charge, so you do not have to pack your entire house just to prepare for your pet’s stay.
You are also welcome to bring familiar toys to help your dog feel more at home. If your pet follows a special diet, you can bring their food with instructions, and our team will feed them according to the schedule you provide.
Vaccination Requirements for Dog Boarding
Keeping our boarding environment healthy requires every guest to meet certain vaccination requirements. Dogs staying with us must be current on Rabies, Bordetella, DHP-PV, and Leptospirosis vaccinations before boarding.
These requirements help us protect individual pets as well as the larger boarding population. If you are unsure whether your dog’s records are current, our team can help you review what is needed before the reservation date.
Doggie Daycamp for Social Dogs
Some dogs would rather spend part of their day playing than lounging in their suite, which is why we offer doggie daycamp for eligible guests. Dogs may socialize with others in our outdoor play yard after completing an evaluation and showing that group play is a safe, appropriate fit.
Pets participating in group daycamp must be spayed or neutered and comfortable around other dogs. For pets that are not currently boarding, daycamp is $38 per day, while dogs staying with us can add daycamp for approximately $18 to $20 depending on the day of the week.
Our family-friendly daycamp environment can be a great option for dogs that enjoy social interaction and physical activity. Dogs that are not a good fit for group play can still receive individual attention through our one-on-one playtime options.
Individual Playtimes and Extra Attention
Not every pet enjoys a group setting, and some simply prefer having a person all to themselves. Our individual playtimes give pets approximately 15 to 20 minutes of one-on-one attention with one of our kennel attendants in the play yard.
These sessions can be especially helpful for dogs that enjoy exercise but are not suited for daycamp. Additional pets participating in the same playtime are charged at half price, making this an easy option for multi-pet families.
Boarding Treats and Comfort Extras
A few familiar comforts can make boarding feel more enjoyable, which is why we offer several optional treats and add-ons. These extras can give pets something fun to look forward to while also helping owners personalize the stay.
Available options may include:
- Frosty Treats made with peanut butter, banana, yogurt, and honey
- Frosty Sundaes topped with whipped cream, peanut butter, carob syrup, and a bone
- Kong Treats filled with peanut butter and kibble
- Nail trims for $21
- Bath-only boarding baths, with restrictions applying
- Professional grooming services
- Ear cleaning
- Anal gland expression
These services can help simplify your schedule by taking care of basic grooming and comfort needs before pickup. If you want your pet to come home fresh, trimmed, or treated to a special snack, our team can help you add the appropriate options to the reservation.
Cat Boarding in a Cats-Only Area

Cats have very different boarding needs from dogs, which is why our cattery is designed specifically around feline comfort. Our cats-only area features individual ventilation for litter boxes and gentle LED lighting rather than harsh fluorescent lighting that some cats may find stressful.
We also keep litter boxes at least three feet away from food and water bowls. That setup reflects normal feline preferences and helps create a cleaner, more comfortable environment during the stay.
Luxury Cat Condos
Our Luxury Cat Condos are currently $52 per day, with each additional cat priced at $26 per day. These rooms face the lobby, giving curious cats plenty to watch, and some include elevated sky boxes that provide a cozy perch for sleeping or observing activity below.
The condos also include multiple tiers for climbing and exploration. This makes them a good choice for active cats that enjoy vertical spaces and opportunities to move around their environment.
Cat Villas
Our Cat Villas are currently $46 per day, with each additional cat priced at $23 per day. These spacious rooms include lower shelves, making them especially comfortable for older cats or pets that cannot jump as easily.
There is also plenty of room for blankets, toys, and familiar items from home. This additional floor space can make longer stays feel more relaxed for cats that prefer lounging over climbing.
Cat Playtimes and Special Extras
Cats can benefit from individual attention too, especially during longer boarding stays. Our cat playtimes are $12 per session, with an additional pet priced at $6, and include approximately 15 to 20 minutes of individualized interaction with a member of our kennel team.
These sessions can be enjoyable for social cats that love attention and equally helpful for shy cats that need a little extra time to become comfortable. We also offer Fish Delish tuna treats for $5 per day and catnip toys for $5 each, which your pet can take home as a souvenir.
Medication and Preventive Care During Boarding
If your pet needs medication or supplements during their stay, our team can help with administration for an additional fee. Oral medications and supplements are currently $7 per night, while injectable medications are $19 per night, although we are not offering insulin injections at this time.
We also require flea and tick prevention for boarding guests to help maintain a clean environment. A Frontline Plus treatment administered by our staff is currently $26 and is required once per month when applicable.
Planning Your Pet’s Stay
Reservations are required for boarding and daycamp, and we strongly recommend booking early for holidays and weekends. These dates tend to fill quickly, so planning ahead gives you the best chance of securing the accommodation and schedule you want.
Check-in and check-out are available between 7 a.m. and 7 p.m. Monday through Sunday, excluding certain holidays. A weekend and major holiday surcharge of $8 per pet, per night applies for Fridays, Saturdays, and designated major holidays.
