Staycation for Dogs

Staycation for Dogs is a dog boarding and daycare facility at 814 Crestview Rd in Vista, CA, offering overnight stays, daytime play, and grooming. The place is built around outdoor time, with six play yards and staff who sort dogs into personalized playgroups matched by temperament and play style. Rain doesn't shut the day down, since the indoor boarding rooms convert into play yards when the weather turns.

Services and amenities

• Overnight boarding in temperature-controlled kennels or crates
• Daycare with group play across six outdoor yards
• Private yards and outdoor runs for dogs who do better on their own
• Grooming appointments
• Medication administration during a stay

What sets it apart

Staff are on site 24/7, so dogs boarding overnight are supervised through the night rather than left alone after closing. That matters for dogs who don't settle easily somewhere new. The team is trained through Dog Handler Academy, and individual cuddle and play time with a handler is part of what the kennel offers. Pawsicle frozen Kong treats are on the list too.

Who it fits

Group play is the default here, but dogs who don't enjoy other dogs aren't left out of the fun. Solo dogs get a private yard or an outdoor run and spend their time with staff instead of a playgroup. Dogs on daily medication can be handled as well.

Hours, rates, and booking

Boarding rates run from $85 to $120 per night. The kennel is open 7:00 AM to 6:30 PM Monday through Friday, and 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM on Saturday and Sunday. Reservations are made online, and vaccinations must be current before a dog stays. Owners with questions can call 760-295-5092.
