Serving Tucson’s Sabino Canyon Area with Full-Service Pet Care

Sabino Canyon Pet Resort is a full-service boarding and grooming facility located in Northeast Tucson, near the scenic Sabino Canyon area. Open seven days a week, this locally operated pet resort offers comfortable, well-maintained accommodations for both dogs and cats, as well as professional grooming, doggie daycare, and even swimming options for active pets.

Designed with pet safety and enrichment in mind, Sabino Canyon Pet Resort offers separate areas for cats and dogs, indoor and outdoor runs, and dedicated play spaces. Whether you’re looking for overnight care, daytime socialization, or a full grooming makeover, this facility has earned a reputation for high standards and personalized attention.

Dog and Cat Boarding Options

The boarding program at Sabino Canyon Pet Resort provides spacious, secure housing for pets while their owners are away. Their accommodations are designed to reduce stress and ensure the comfort of every guest, from energetic puppies to senior cats.

  • Indoor/Outdoor Dog Runs: Dogs enjoy spacious runs with both climate-controlled indoor sleeping quarters and access to private outdoor areas during the day.
  • Separate Cattery: Cats are housed in a quiet, feline-only section with multi-level condos and cozy bedding—well away from barking dogs.
  • Daily Exercise: Dogs receive regular potty breaks, play sessions, and optional swim time to stay active and relaxed.
  • Custom Feeding and Medication: Staff follow owner-provided schedules, administer medications, and accommodate special dietary needs.

Dog Daycare and Social Play

For dogs who benefit from structured play and socialization, Sabino Canyon Pet Resort offers doggie daycare with supervised group activities. Daycare groups are separated by size and temperament to ensure safe, compatible play.

Daycare is available seven days a week and can be used on a drop-in basis or scheduled regularly. Many pet owners use it as a reliable alternative to leaving their dog home alone, especially those with high-energy breeds or dogs needing daily stimulation.

Professional Grooming Services

Grooming at Sabino Canyon Pet Resort includes full-service baths, brush-outs, breed-specific haircuts, nail trims, ear cleaning, and more. Groomers work with dogs and cats of all breeds and coat types, and appointments can be scheduled as part of a boarding stay or on their own.

Grooming is performed by experienced professionals who focus on gentle handling, especially for nervous or elderly pets. Many clients appreciate the convenience of having grooming, daycare, and boarding available in one location.

Unique Amenities for Active Dogs

One standout feature of Sabino Canyon Pet Resort is its dog swimming program. For pets that love the water—or those needing low-impact exercise—swim sessions provide an enjoyable and healthy way to burn energy. This is ideal for breeds like Labs and retrievers, as well as dogs recovering from surgery or managing joint issues.

Dogs also benefit from personalized attention from staff, who take time to get to know each pet’s needs, routines, and preferences. Whether your dog loves group play or prefers solo time, the team can adapt their approach to ensure a positive experience.

My beloved cat Van was in the final stages of debilitating malignant thyroid tumors that left him unable to eat and drink in his final days.

Dr. Miller’s comforting actions with Van and her reassurances to me helped make what was already a horrific experience as bearable as possible under the circumstances."
