The Valley Pet Resort and Spa

The Valley Pet Resort and Spa offers dog boarding in Northbridge, MA, along with daycare, grooming, and training at 18 Granite Street. Dogs stay in private glass-front suites rather than chain-link runs, and the facility accepts small, medium, and large dogs. Cats can board here too.

What are the suites like?

There are three suite options: Grand, Royal, and Executive. The suites have glass fronts with no chain link, and Kuranda beds are part of the setup. Royal Suites add a flat-screen TV and 24-hour infrared camera access, so owners can look in on their dog at any hour.

Published rates run from $35 to $50 per day, according to the kennel's website. Owners comparing suites should confirm the current rate for each when they reserve.

What services and extras are offered?

Boarding is only one piece of what happens here. Daycare, grooming, and training all run out of the same facility, which suits owners who want one team handling everything.

• Private glass-front suites in three tiers
• 3,000 sq ft outdoor play space with artificial grass
• Indoor play area
• Webcam access
• Medication administration

Owners can also add a la carte pampering to a stay. The menu includes cuddle time, bedtime stories, frozen treats, and ice cream sundaes.

Where do dogs play?

The outdoor play space covers 3,000 square feet and is surfaced with artificial grass. There is indoor play space as well, giving dogs room to move on both sides of the door.

What should owners know before booking?

Reservations are made online. Vaccinations are required, so it helps to have records ready before requesting a stay. Staff can also give medication during a visit.

The Valley Pet Resort and Spa is open 7:00 AM to 6:00 PM Monday through Friday. Saturday and Sunday hours are 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM. The kennel lists the Knowing Dogs Certification Program as its certification, and questions can go to 508-273-8210 or info@thevalleypetresort.com.
