How much does it cost to board a dog per day?
Dog boarding is a highly sought-after service, as many owners, for various reasons, need to find a way to leave their pet in safe hands for a while. Therefore, the question of how much dog boarding costs per day is always a pressing one among dog owners. There are various options for this service, each with its own price.

Main proposals
Boarding is the temporary placement of dogs of any breed in a hotel or home, creating comfortable living conditions. The price of this service typically includes accommodation, feeding, walks, and constant companionship. Dog training centers, kennels, and private businesses offer this type of service. In-home boarding is the most popular, as providers are typically dog owners, are skilled at handling dogs, and only take one pet at a time, providing it with the necessary attention.
The cost of dog boarding in Moscow and the Moscow region depends on the pet's size and the length of stay, as shown in the table below:

The cost of preparing food is paid additionally if the owner did not provide the pet with dry food or there was not enough of it. Treatment for ectoparasites and helminths are necessarily performed if any are detected.
When boarding more than one dog from the same owner, the largest dog is charged full price, and all other dogs are charged half price. The animals must live together peacefully and not require separate housing.

VIP boarding
For dog owners who are particularly demanding about the conditions their pets live in, there's a special VIP boarding program. It differs from regular boarding in that pets are placed temporarily with only those employees or individuals whose work is considered impeccable, as evidenced by exclusively positive reviews.
Such service locations are usually very few, so VIP boarding slots are limited. They typically work only with regular clients who aren't concerned about the cost of in-home dog boarding with VIP service. The most important thing is that their pet remains in a familiar environment with top-notch home care. The average cost of this service ranges from 1,000 to 2,500 rubles per day.
Advance booking
Pet boarding demand increases significantly during the holidays, so to guarantee a spot, we recommend pre-booking. This requires not only reserving a spot but also paying a portion of the service.

In case of cancellation, the prepaid amount will be refunded minus 1,000 rubles. If the down payment was less than 1,000 rubles, no refund will be given.
