Why Choose Pasadena Pet Motel?

Passion & Experience You Can Trust

Experience matters when it comes to your pet’s care. Our devoted team has worked with thousands of dogs over the years, and we know that no two are alike. We take the time to learn your dog’s unique personality so we can provide love and care that’s tailored to them — not just any dog.

Personalized Playgroups & Care Plans

We carefully group dogs by size and play style to ensure safe, happy interactions. If your dog prefers solo time outdoors or only wants to engage with humans, that’s perfectly okay — we’ll adjust their schedule to suit their preferences. Our goal is a personalized, low-stress stay every time.

Natural Calm with CBD

For pets experiencing stress, anxiety, pain, or inflammation, we offer administration of Nature’s Pet Herbals CBD oil upon request. It’s a natural way to support dogs with conditions like thunderstorm anxiety, arthritis, digestive issues, and more. Just let us know at drop-off or give us a call to discuss your dog’s needs.

All Dogs Welcome — No Breed or Status Discrimination

We welcome intact dogs and breeds often turned away elsewhere. Our experienced staff know how to support dogs with special needs or behavioral quirks. If your pup ever becomes overstimulated, we simply switch to one-on-one care without missing a beat. And if we feel another facility might better suit your dog, we’ll help guide you there — because their well-being always comes first.

Playtime Included — Always

Fresh air and exercise aren’t extras — they’re essentials. That’s why every socialized dog at our facility enjoys up to six outdoor play sessions daily, at no additional cost. We believe dogs should be active, social, and stimulated throughout the day.

Expert-Led, Community-Trusted

With over 30 years of veterinary experience and deep roots in rescue, training, and therapy work, our family-owned facility is trusted by local vets, shelters, and trainers alike. We’re proud to be recommended by the professionals who know pets best.

Dog Boarding Requirements & Considerations

Vaccine Requirement and Age

For the health and safety of all our guests, we require that all dogs are current on their Rabies, Distemper, Parvo, and Bordetella vaccinations, as mandated by our Pinellas County kennel licensing. If your dog is receiving a vaccination, please allow a 10-day period before their scheduled stay with us. We happily welcome dogs over 4 months of age.

Food, Medication, and Supplements

To help prevent digestive issues, we strongly recommend you bring your dog's own food for their meals. However, if you prefer, we can provide food at an additional cost: $2.50 per meal for dogs 25 pounds and under, and $5.00 per meal for dogs 26 pounds and up. Please ensure all food containers, including individual cans, are clearly labeled with your pet’s name. There is an extra charge for administering medications, supplements, and vitamins: $2.50 per day for once daily administration, and $5.00 per day for twice daily administration.

Bedding, Bowls, and Toys

We provide all dogs in our care with a comfortable Kuranda dog cot, stainless steel water bowl, and stainless steel food bowls. For dogs that are not chewers, we also offer cozy dog beds and blankets. We have a variety of toys available for playtime and sanitize all equipment twice daily. You are welcome to bring a special, non-chewable item from home for your dog's comfort.

Holiday Reservations

A non-refundable two-night deposit will be charged at the time of booking to secure your pet's reservation for holiday stays. Additionally, a $10 boarding fee will be applied for each holiday night.

Flea & Tick Prevention

For the well-being of your dog and all our guests, it is essential that your dog is up-to-date on their flea and tick preventative.

Veterinary Care Limitations

Please note that Pasadena Pet Motel is not a veterinary facility, and therefore we may not be the best option for dogs requiring extensive medical care. We encourage you to contact us to discuss your dog's specific needs if they require more than routine care.

Considerations for Reactive Dogs

Our team is dedicated to providing a safe and enjoyable environment for every dog in our care, as well as for our staff. If we determine that our facility may not be the most suitable environment for a reactive dog, we will gladly offer alternative recommendations.

Post-Adoption/Travel Considerations

For the health and well-being of all the dogs in our care, we require a minimum two-week waiting period before boarding pets that have recently been adopted from a shelter or breeder, or have traveled by airline.
