A luxury pet resort is the equivalent of a luxury hotel for dogs. Just as you can stay in a roadside motel or in a high-end boutique hotel, dogs also have options. Like their human counterparts, a luxury pet resort will offer services and amenities that standard kennels or boarding services do not offer. For example, a luxury pet resort offers larger room options including luxury suites and executive rooms, which are cage-free. All canine guests at luxury pet resorts have access to the group facilities and amenities including the outdoor courtyard with large play area, and ample space for dogs to relieve themselves.

There are also different boarding packages and options depending on the dog’s individual needs. For example, some dogs will be young and not fully potty trained. Some dogs prefer constant attention and interaction with other dogs, whereas some dogs do better with private play sessions with an attentive human staff member. The good thing about a luxury pet resort is that the boarding options tend to be flexible without the one-size-fits-all approach that does not work any better with dogs than with people. Also, pet owners who have more than one dog in the family can opt to room them together so they can continue to enjoy each others’ company.

Luxury pet resorts also offer value added options ranging from doggie spa, grooming, and bathing to different meal and nutrition options—similar to a human spa. There are also doggie daycare services offered at a luxury pet resort, similar to the difference between a luxury hotel versus a day spa. Finally, a luxury pet resort is knowledgeable about the potential problems with dog boarding in general and staff are dedicated to preventing problems like catching fleas or experiencing stress-related issues.
