Frequently Asked Questions
What makes Petropolis dog boarding different from other facilities?
At Petropolis, our dog boarding experience centers around our Pet Empowerment philosophy. Unlike traditional kennels, we provide spacious suites, daily enrichment activities, and personalized care plans. Our trained staff monitors each dog's physical and emotional wellbeing, ensuring they receive individual attention and plenty of play time, making their stay more like a vacation than just boarding.
How does dog daycare work at Petropolis?
Our dog daycare program offers supervised socialization and play in our indoor and outdoor play yards. Dogs are carefully evaluated and placed in playgroups based on size, temperament, and play style. Throughout the day, they enjoy structured activities, rest periods, or one-on-one attention from our staff. We maintain a low staff-to-dog ratio to ensure safety and personalized care.
What do I need to bring for cat boarding at Petropolis?
For cat boarding, we recommend bringing your cat's regular food to maintain dietary consistency, any medications they require, and a familiar item from home (like a blanket or toy) to help them feel secure. Our feline accommodations include comfortable bedding, climbing structures, and private areas, but that special item from home can make a big difference in your cat's comfort level.
Do you offer any packages that combine dog boarding and grooming?
Yes! We offer convenient board & groom packages that include dog boarding with a grooming session before pickup. This popular option ensures your dog returns home clean, fresh, and well-rested. Various grooming packages are available to suit different coat types and needs, from basic baths to full grooming services.
How do I get started with dog training at Petropolis?
Beginning dog training at Petropolis starts with a consultation to discuss your goals and your dog's current behavior. We'll recommend the appropriate program—whether day training, private lessons, or our Board & Train program where your dog stays with us for intensive training. All our training uses positive reinforcement methods to build confidence and reliability.
