Glen's Dog Inn

Glen's Dog Inn is a cage-free dog boarding and daycare kennel in Inglewood, CA, three minutes north of LAX and right off the 405. The property is split by size. Large dogs use a separate hilltop yard, and small dogs have their own yard on the lower part of the property. Fences stand ten to twelve feet high and are moored in concrete, with multiple security gates between the two areas.

Services and amenities

• Overnight boarding at a flat $52 per night
• Cage-free outdoor play in yards separated by dog size
• Daycare for dogs who need a day out of the house
• Air-conditioned, fully ventilated indoor sleeping rooms
• Medication administered for dogs who need it

What sets it apart

Dogs spend their days outdoors here, then sleep inside in climate-controlled rooms at night. The hilltop yard gives large dogs a long view into the distance rather than a closed-in run, which is how the kennel describes keeping bigger dogs settled. Both small and large dogs are accepted, and the kennel serves all of Los Angeles. Families boarding two dogs get a discount on the additional dog, and longer stays can qualify for a discount as well, so that is worth raising when you call.

Practical details

The kennel sits at 718 Vesta Street, Inglewood, CA 90302. Hours are 8:00 AM to 7:00 PM Monday through Friday, 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM Saturday, and noon to 5:00 PM Sunday. Reservations are handled by phone at 310-673-4364, not through an online booking system, so plan on a short call. Every dog must be current on vaccinations before staying. The location a few minutes from the airport makes it a practical option for owners flying out of LAX, and the single $52 nightly rate keeps the math simple on a week-long trip.
