Dog Boarding in El Paso
El Paso may be a vibrant city with a diverse culture and some great attractions, but everybody needs a change of scenery once in a while. But what do you do with your canine compadre when you're out of town?
Your first thought might be to book your pooch a spot at a local kennel. However, there are more comfortable and affordable ways to keep your pup's tail wagging while you're away.
In-home overnight care is an increasingly popular alternative to traditional kennels, as your hound will undoubtedly be less stressed staying at home. Many caregivers are also registered walkers, meaning your doggo can go on a fun adventure too! With your permission, your chosen caregiver can take your pup on their favorite walking route or for a stroll somewhere completely new before enjoying a well-earned snooze when they get home.
Picking the right care for your pup is important whether you're away on business for the day or planning a week-long getaway. Let's take a quick look at the average costs of bog boarders and dog sitters in El Paso.
Average Cost of Dog Boarding in El Paso
As one of the biggest cities in Texas, El Paso offers no shortage of dog boarding options. Most kennels in El Paso charge around $30 a night. Keep in mind that medicine, extra feedings, and other services cost extra.
If you'd prefer your dog spends their time away in the lap of luxury, there are a few upscale dog kennels across El Paso. These kennels offer spacious rooms with added extras, like a comfy elevated bed, extra playtime, one-on-one care, and more. Unsurprisingly, these luxury kennels are a bit pricier than standard kennels.
As mentioned, almost all El Paso dog boarders charge additional fees, so it's worth checking with your chosen kennels beforehand so you don't get any unwelcome surprises on your bill. You'll also want to consider the time of year you're booking, as many dog boarders in El Paso charge higher fees around the holidays. Ensure Fido has up-to-date vaccinations and a microchip, as many kennels won't let your woofer stay if you don't bring along proof.
Can't find the "pawfect" dog boarder for your doggo? El Paso dog boarders through Wag! set their own competitive rates and will board your pup in a comfortable home setting instead of a kennel.
Average Cost of Dog Sitting in El Paso
If your poodle is a bit anxious and doesn't like staying anywhere other than home, you'll probably want to book an at-home El Paso dog sitter. There quite a few dog sitters across El Paso, who charge around $50 for their services on average.
While these services are reasonable, many sitters don't spend the night and will only come over to feed your pup and let them out. They will also charge additional fees for walks and additional care, so you'll likely end paying much more than the base price. It's also worth booking well in advance as the best sitters stay busy. There may also be additional fees for booking over the holidays.
Alternatively, check out top-rated El Paso dog sitters on the Wag! platform. Sitters through Wag! will plan an overnight sleepover with your pup right in their home. It’s a “furrific” option for homebody hounds or dogs with separation anxiety.
