Dog Boarding — 9,928 trusted facilities
Dog boarding in the U.S. runs about $25–$150 per night, with a national median near $45–$55. What you pay depends on your city and the type of facility — a basic kennel costs far less than a suite-style pet hotel, and coastal metros run 30–40% higher than the South. PetSoMo lists trusted boarding facilities in 5,500+ U.S. cities so you can compare price, trust score, and care fit before you book.
What dog boarding costs
Basic kennel boarding runs $25–$45 per night, mid-range facilities $40–$75, and luxury pet hotels $75–$150+. Expect a 15–40% holiday surcharge, plus add-ons like medication administration ($5–$15/dose) and pre-pickup bathing. Always ask for a total written estimate before booking.
How to choose a boarder
Tour the facility in person, confirm the staff-to-dog ratio and overnight coverage, verify the emergency-vet protocol, and check that vaccination requirements (rabies, DHPP, Bordetella) are enforced. Cage-free boarding suits social dogs; reactive or senior dogs often do better with traditional or in-home care.
