Silver Dog Bed & Biscuit

Silver Dog Bed & Biscuit offers dog boarding and daycare in West St. Paul, Minnesota, along with cat boarding and grooming, at 280 Wentworth Ave E. The building is climate controlled, with indoor play space and outdoor grounds, and cats stay in a separate wing of their own.

Services

• Overnight boarding in single and double dog suites
• Day care, arranged in advance
• Grooming
• Puppy socialization
• Special-needs and senior pet care

Dogs board in single or double suites and get outside time in the potty runs and grassy playground. Private suites and indoor play space are part of the setup, and staff will administer medication, so a dog on a daily prescription does not need a change of routine to board here.

What sets it apart

The cat side is built out more than most dog-focused kennels bother with. Feline guests stay in a dedicated quiet wing away from the dogs, in air-conditioned multi-level suites with negative air pressure and calming music.

Senior pets and animals with special needs get specific attention, and puppy socialization is on the list for younger dogs still learning how to behave around others. Owners of an anxious older dog, or a pup that has never boarded, have a real reason to ask about it.

Practical details

Booking is handled by phone at 651-455-1558. Vaccinations are required for every guest, so owners should have records in hand before the first stay. Day care runs by prior arrangement rather than drop-in, which is worth planning around if the schedule is tight. The kennel sits in West St. Paul, close to MSP Airport, which makes it a workable option for a trip. More detail on the facility is at silver-dog.com.
