Waggin' Tails Resort Inc.

Waggin' Tails Resort Inc. offers dog boarding in Peoria, IL, along with daycare, grooming and training at 2121 West Altorfer Drive. Owners can pick a private suite or cage-free boarding, and the resort takes small, medium and large dogs.

Where do dogs sleep?

Boarding dogs stay in private suites with glass fronts and cozy bedding. For dogs who do better outside a suite, the resort also offers cage-free boarding. The building is climate controlled, and an HVAC system with fresh-air exchange keeps the air clean and dry.

How do dogs spend the day?

Daycare runs next to boarding, so dogs have both indoor play space and fenced outdoor areas. The outdoor yards have K-9 turf and heated sidewalks, which cut down on muddy paws and winter slush. Play groups are temperament tested, so each dog plays with others that match its energy and personality.

What stands out?

• Private suites with glass fronts and bedding
• Cage-free boarding option
• 24-hour camera observation and a security system
• Free bath after stays of five nights or more
• Medication administration and special diets

The owner is CPR certified and holds a Dog Guru certification. The resort describes its aim simply: dogs should feel safe, cared for and comfortable while their owners are away.
