Your Premium Dog Boarding Destination for the Holidays

Paws down, your pet will have tons of fun at Doggie District

If you plan to travel this holiday season but can’t take your dog along, Doggie District Premier Pet Resort can provide a fun-filled getaway for your fur baby. With over 10,000 square feet of outdoor space, climate-controlled suites, and indoor play yards, your dog will be kept busy and engaged according to its needs.

Some suites are large enough to board your whole family of dogs so they can cuddle together, just like at home. They’ll have three daily walks, interactive outdoor play, first-class safety protocols, and detailed monitoring of eating habits, potty habits, and general behavior—all in a strict hospital-grade hygienic facility.

There are a few different levels of care available, from a 5-Star Package with personalized playtimes and extra belly rubs to a Standard stay with plenty of social playtime with toys, play gyms, and a loving staff providing specialty treats. You will need to schedule an Orientation Day at least 48 hours before making a reservation. There is no charge to bring in your pet to meet the staff, romp around with other pups, and tour the facility at 4245 South Grand Canyon Drive, Suite 110. Dogs are separated according to personality, activity level, and size. Playing all day is exhausting, so at mid-day, everyone gets to rest.

Be sure to have a record of all vaccinations, including Rabies, Distemper, Bordetella, and Canine Influenza. And your dog must be spayed or neutered; otherwise, they won’t be able to participate in any social play. But they will enjoy one-on-one playtimes with the staff for a small additional charge for non-social boarding. Dogs that show signs of, or have a history of, aggressive behavior such as biting, snapping, or lunging are not accepted. And relaxing music is played 24/7 throughout the facility.

To help your pet feel safe and comfy, you can bring their own bedding, favorite squeaky toy, or lovey. And to avoid tummy problems, bring their own food and any medications. For a $1 fee per dosage, staff will administer oral or topical medications. Every dog receives a comprehensive wellness check during their stay, with their every need carefully tended to by the highly trained and experienced team of pet lovers. One less thing to worry about this busy holiday season or anytime during the year!
