Tradewinds Pet Suites

Tradewinds Pet Suites offers dog boarding in Waianae, Hawaii, along with cat boarding at its property on Puuhulu Road. The kennel accepts small, medium, and large dogs, and the layout favors space and separation over group play. It sits on nearly two acres, and a large fenced grassy yard is the main outdoor space.

How dogs are housed

Dogs stay in walk-in kennels, each with its own private 25-foot outdoor run, so a guest can move between inside and outside during the day. Suites come in three sizes: Queen, King, and Super King. The Super King is sized for two compatible dogs from the same family. Smaller guests at 25 pounds or under can stay in the air-conditioned Petite Suites. Every dog gets one-on-one playtime each day at no extra fee.

What cat owners should know

Cats get air-conditioned walk-in suites running 20 to 40 square feet, each with an individual window. The rooms are cage-free, with Feliway calming pheromone diffusers and air purifiers.
