Northwest Indiana's
Premier Luxury Pet Boarding Suites

We boast a 9500 square foot, state-of-the-art facility with 32 suites, 2 indoor play arenas, 5 spacious outdoor areas, and a 14 x 20 heated in ground pool. Our newly constructed 4800 square foot Dockside facility is located just east of the main building and offers 11 suites for boarding with all the amenities as our other suites. In addition we have 2 outdoor runs as well as indoor play areas.

Each spacious suite is outfitted with a flat screen TV, Kujo Cots from K9 Ballistics, individual heat/AC vent, ceramic tiled floor, and a sliding glass door. We provide all the comforts of home for your furry family member.

Unlike traditional boarding facilities, we do not "warehouse" your pet in a cage type kennel. Here at Dawg Paradise we treat your pet like family. We provide human contact with lots of love and interaction. For those of you who just can't stand being away from your "best friend", we provide 24/7 web cams* so that you can check in and see how much fun he/she is having. Both of our facilities are equipped with a back up generator so we can continue to provide all services in the event of a power outage. No need to worry while you're away, we will take good care of your buddy.

Our goal is to keep your baby safe and happy as can be while you're away. After all, we don't call it Dawg Paradise for nothing.

*Our camera system is not a guaranteed amenity. The system is managed through Tyco–Smartvue and due to upgrades, power outages and other reasons beyond our control, the camera viewing option may at times be temporarily unavailable. Please check back again at a later time. Thank you for your understanding.
