Spot for Dogs

Spot for Dogs is a dog boarding and daycare facility in Atlanta, GA, offering overnight stays, day play, and bathing. The Atlanta location sits at 750 Ponce De Leon Pl NE, Suite #1, in the 30306 zip code, and the business also runs a second location in Decatur.

What they offer

Day camp fills the hours between drop-off and pickup with supervised play, indoors and outside. Overnight guests book what the kennel calls a Slumber Party, its name for traditional boarding. Bathing is handled under the Old Fashioned Bath name, so a dog can come home clean after a longer stay.

• Dog daycare with indoor play space
• Overnight boarding, listed as the Slumber Party
• A spacious outdoor dog run
• Bathing and grooming
• Daily photos and updates posted to social media

What sets it apart

Every dog has to pass a temperament test before joining, which means the play groups are screened rather than open to whoever shows up that morning. The kennel describes its staff as fully trained. For owners who spend the day wondering how things are going, Spot for Dogs shares photos and updates on social media, including its Facebook page.

Practical details

Booking is done online through spotfordogs.com, and the site has separate booking links for the Atlanta and Decatur locations, so it helps to pick the right one before reserving. The Atlanta phone line is 404-745-4243, and email goes to spotfordogs@gmail.com. New clients should plan for the temperament test as a first step rather than assuming a same-day drop-off will work.

The Ponce De Leon Place address puts the Atlanta site close to the Virginia-Highland and Poncey-Highland side of town, which suits owners looking for a daycare stop on the way to work and a boarding option they already know when a trip comes up.
