Dog Boarding in Greater Milwaukee & Southeastern Wisconsin
Your dog should have a safe and clean place to board while you’re away. Each dog has their own personal space that’s appropriate for their size to rest. They will get one-on-one personal attention from a pet care attendant and exercise four times a day. Their health is also carefully monitored including the daily charting of food intake, eliminations, and exercise. Your pets prescribed medication is also dispensed and charted. We keep our pet guests’ quarters clean and as comfortable and relaxing as possible.
Indoor Canine Suites
All of our Indoor Canine Suites are 12’ long, widths ranging from 2 ½’ to 6’ wide to accommodate the various sizes of dogs. All indoor dogs are taken outside 4 times per day by a pet care attendant for exercise and eliminations. We provide food bowls, water bowls, washable beds, blankets, rugs, & pads for your pet’s comfort. All suites have isolation panels between pets and are cleaned and sanitized daily.
The indoor suites are ideal for the pet that likes handling and people interaction. The indoor suites will accommodate multiple family pets, however you must assure us that the pets you want boarded together are your own personal family pets and that they will not fight or argue over food or toys. You will be responsible for their behavior. We will not board any dogs together that are not personal family pets, even if they are playmates with other relatives’ or friends’ pets.
Indoor Canine Suites with an Attached Covered Outdoor Patio
Each of our Indoor Canine Suites with an Attached Covered Outdoor Patio range in widths up to 5′ wide with a 6′ long interior and a 12′ long covered outdoor patio. We provide food bowls, water bowls, washable beds, blankets, rugs, & pads for your pet’s comfort. All suites have isolation panels between pets and are cleaned and sanitized daily.
The indoor canine suites with an attached covered outdoor patio are ideal for the more aggressive or anti-social dog that would rather not be handled by our pet care attendant, or for the owner who would like their dog to have additional time outside. We still monitor them very closely and monitor the outdoor temperature as not to have a dog suffer from heat stroke or be subjected to cold or inclement weather.
Boarding With Doggy Day Care
Dog Boarding with Doggy Daycare is a combination of both boarding and doggy day care. All dogs will have their own private suite (either an indoor or an indoor w/a outdoor patio) to stay in overnight and during the day they will be able to either have individual day care which includes 2 15- minute play times that are done one-on-one with a pet care attendant or will be able to attend all day group day care where they will be able to play with other dogs during the day.
All Canine Guests
We use our discretion as to the proper amount of time the pet is outdoors and all boarding guests are locked in at night. Some pets have medical or other conditions such as fears of thunderstorms or fireworks that may require reduced activity or special handling. We can make those arrangements as well.

What to Bring
When registering pets for boarding, it is the responsibility of the pet owner to bring current vaccination papers with them. To ensure that your pet’s vaccinations are current, we strongly suggest that you refer to the papers that you received from your veterinarian, or call your veterinarian for that information. To save time when you are checking your pet in you may fax, email, uploaded into your online profile or dropped off that information in advance. If your pet’s vaccinations are not in compliance with our policy, your pet will not be able to board with us. The required vaccinations are in the best interest of your pet’s health.
CANINE VACCINATION REQUIREMENTS – We require proof of Rabies (if the dog is over 4 months old), DHLPP (Distemper, Hepatitis, Leptospirosis, Parainfluenza, Parvovirus), and Bordetella. Bordetella prevents against canine cough and is not a routine vaccination, so you must ask your veterinarian specifically to administer it. This vaccination must be given at least 7-days prior to your dog’s boarding with us.
All vaccination records should be submitted to us at least seven (7) days in advance. If you wish to fax vaccination records to us please use 262-320-3145. If you wish to email them please send them to shotrecords@animalmotel.net

Welcome Home
Your pet will be excited to see you and your family when you pick them up. To ensure a happy homecoming reunion, we recommend the following do’s and don’ts:
- DO NOT give food and/or water for ONE HOUR after arrival home. Your pet has had water in front of them at all times during their stay. Eating and drinking while your pet is excited can cause vomiting, diarrhea, or bloat.
- DO exercise your pet outside on return for a longer period of time. The excitement of being in their own yard will cause them to eliminate more frequently.
- Your pet will be tired. They probably did more barking, had more exercise, and had a fun time. Like you after a vacation, it takes a day or two for your pet to readjust back into their routine and to feel rested.
PLEASE NOTE: Your pet’s vacation at Animal Motel should not have changed any housebreaking habits. Dogs are creatures of habit and what they do at home is part of their routine here. If your pet should have an accident, be sure to correct it immediately – it might be a test.
