Paradise Kennels

Paradise Kennels handles dog boarding in Augusta, GA, from its facility at 3996 Belair Road, and it also runs daycare, grooming, and cat boarding. The kennel has been family owned and operated since 1977. Boarding is priced by size and runs $20 to $34 per night, and dogs of every size are accepted, from small up to giant.

What's on offer

• Traditional boarding for dogs and cats, priced by size
• Dog daycare
• Grooming, including walk-in appointments
• Medication administration during a stay
• Indoor kennels that are heated and cooled, plus outdoor space

What makes it different

This is a no nose-to-nose contact facility, so boarding dogs do not interact with other guests. Every stay includes two daily pampering sessions, either a leash walk around the grounds or time in the play yard. Owners can add enrichment extras such as snuffle mats, lick mats, and frozen treats. Long-term boarding is available for stays over 30 days.

The kennels are indoor and climate controlled, which matters through an Augusta summer. Staff can also administer medication during a stay, which helps for older dogs or a pet on a prescription.

Booking and practical details

Reservations go through the Paw Partner app online, which also carries photos from a pet's stay and direct messaging with staff. Hours are 7:30 AM to 5:00 PM Monday through Saturday, and the kennel is closed Sunday. Current vaccination records are required before a pet can board. The phone number is 706-860-1977, and the kennel's website lists current rates and add-on options.
