Golden Leash

Golden Leash offers in-home dog boarding and daycare in Las Vegas, NV, hosting dogs in a house rather than a row of kennel runs. The arrangement is cage-free, and supervision is available 24/7. Daily and nighttime routines, along with dietary needs, are worked out with each owner rather than set by a fixed schedule.

What Golden Leash offers

• In-home boarding built around a home-away-from-home routine
• Doggy daycare with both indoor play areas and outdoor space
• Daily one-on-one dog walking
• Dog hikes at Red Rock Canyon for high-energy dogs
• Pet sitting in the dog's own home

What makes it different

The format is the main difference. Instead of a boarding floor, dogs live in a home with people around the clock, which suits dogs who do poorly in a run or need special diets accommodated. There is a doggie pool on site for dogs who would rather cool off than hike. Owners receive a photo message and a status update with every visit, so there is a record of how the day actually went.

Before the first stay

New clients go through a required in-home consultation before any booking is accepted. That meeting happens at the dog's own home, which lets the sitter see the dog's habits and routine firsthand and gives owners a chance to ask questions face to face.

Credentials

Golden Leash is licensed and bonded through the pet sitters association and is a Pet Sitters International member, certified in pet care. Certification in pet first aid and CPR is also in place.
