How the day is organized

Dogs are sorted into playgroups matched by size, play style, and temperament rather than grouped by whoever happens to be there. Play runs up to nine hours, split between the outdoor yards and indoor space. Owners who want to see how the day is going can watch through the webcams instead of waiting for pickup.

Boarding, meals, and medication

Overnight guests can stay in a standard cabin, an overnight room, or a luxury suite, so a dog that rests better away from activity has a quieter option. Meals are prepared to owner instructions, and staff administer medication and handle special diets. Those details matter for older dogs and for dogs on a prescription, and they are worth confirming when booking.

Practical details

Booking is by phone at (410) 705-4104. Vaccinations are required, so records should be current before the first stay. General questions can go to pups@parkwood.pet, and grooming can be added on, which is useful after a longer stay. Because Parkwood Pet Resort is open every day of the year, holiday travel dates are covered, though those stretches tend to fill early at any Pikesville kennel. Calling ahead is the practical move for a first visit.
