Boarding Department             Happy New Year 2026

 

While staying with us, your dogs get to play in daycare during the day. They eat lunch and/or nap during the middle of the day and then enjoy a nightly turn down service where they are greeted with freshly cleaned cots and blankets and stainless steel water and food bowls. One of our highly trained staff also remains on premise during their stay overnight in case anything were to happen. 

Muddy Paws also offers cat boarding. We give your cats their very own run dedicated to making their boarding experience fun and relaxing. Their run space is equipped with water and food bowls, bedding and a litter box with litter. They receive one-on-one time with our kennel staff to make sure they get the love and attention they deserve.
