INDOOR / OUTDOOR DOG BOARDING
(For dogs over 25 lbs)
Bokhara Uses NO CRATES FOR BOARDING ANY OF OUR DOGGY GUESTS, BUT PLEASE KNOW THAT FOR THE LARGER DOGS WE ARE WHAT IS CONSIDER A NORMAL PET LODGING FACILITY.
Our Grounds & Facility: We are a GREEN Facility Once you drive down our long wooded driveway and step through the door at Bokhara, your experience will begin with a smile, a friendly face, and when you leave, you will leave with the satisfaction of knowing your pet was in loving and caring hands.
Bokhara Pet Resort & Grooming Spa is located on 14 acres of lush pine forest, with manicured lawns and flower gardens. Bokhara has spectacularly beautiful and spacious grounds on the very shore of Elk Lake where our pet guests can hike and swim with their very own personal playmate who, at your direction, will provide personal one-on-one activity sessions with your pet - everything from his favorite exhausting games to quiet hugs and cuddles. Owners who are staying in the area are welcome to come and use our grounds to exercise their own pets - this is very popular in the summer time where a family takes their dog to our beach for a few hours each day. Bokhara Pet Resort & Grooming Spa is located on 14 acres of lush stately pine and maple forest, with manicured lawns, and 300' of private Elk Lake beach front. We are proud of our commitment to maintaining a lovely facility for our pet guests and their owners to enjoy.
90% of our larger dog enclosures have 4" block wall dividers on the inside sleeping area to ensure the privacy of the pet while resting. 10% of our larger dog enclosures do not have a block privacy walls dividing the enclosure and are normally used for the multiple pet families where the pets are not to be boarded together because of their different ages, medications or feeding habits but wish to be close and see each other. These enclosures give pets the ability to see each other whether inside or outside so the special needs can be handled efficiently while boarding.
Each Bokhara Pet Resort guest has their very own private sleeping accommodation for we never allow a guest to become intimidated by being forced to interact with other strange dogs within their own private space! Our policy is not to co-board guests unless they belong to the same family. Bokhara does not board the larger dogs in free roaming groups without supervision. Our larger guests are accommodated in their very own private enclosures which are large and provide plenty of exercise and space for our guests. We also off a complete A-la-cart menu of activities to keep your active pet (or the more sedate pet) exercised and entertained while you are away.
The Bokhara Summer Swimming Camp Program is exceptional, but if you wish to swim your pet yourself - you are allowed to come during our business hours and take your pet to our 300 feet of Elk Lake frontage for swimming and a fun time for your whole family. See our Activities Program...
We are an all indoor/outdoor facility with very inside sleeping areas and large outside patio areas. The outdoor patio areas are accessed from each individual indoor sleeping area through a flap pet door to the outside patio. Pets have free access to the outdoors daily from 7:45am-10:30pm at which time the doors are closed for the night to keep the pets indoor and warm in the wintertime. We do have limited play groups for the larger dogs, but our SMALLWORLD dogs are in play groups during the day. If your small dog isn't social, not a problem for we have special playtimes just or those shy or unsure dogs.
Our facility is large with a open air roof that covers over the entire facility which keeps the sun, rain and snow off the dog while they are in their outdoor area.
Security: Our boarding facility is double fenced outside so that boarding guests may not leave the facility (also so unwanted guests may not get into the facility). Our outer perimeter fencing is from the ground to the roof line for added security and protection. Gates are locked at all times and fire detection equipment is in place. The facility owners reside on the grounds and bed checks are conducted each evening after the staff have left. We are very proud of our services and client satisfaction as pet care providers. The health, safety and welfare of your pet is as important to us as it is to you!
What We Provide: Luxury Dog & Cat Lodging, Doggie Daycare, All-Breed Pet Grooming, and Supervised Buddy Playgroups (for the small dog). What We’re About: Compassion, Comfort, and Safety! The following is a sampling of special needs that can be accommodated at no additional charges:

BATHING BEFORE DEPARTURE: Why might my dog need a shampoo and dry before coming home from a boarding stay? Boarded pets do not stay as clean as they do at home for several reasons. Although our staff is vigilant in scooping and cleaning the boarding patios, dogs may soil their feet and coat. Longer coated breeds will become more soiled than shorter coats but to ensure a happy and sweet smelling homecoming we provide a very nominally charged shampoo & dry exit bath prior to going home.
"SmallWorld - just for the small dogs" is a Special Indoor Wing.... For the very small pet we provide a special area separate from our normal indoor/outdoor patio accommodations. Small guests have their own private outdoor exercise area and are in buddy play groups during the daytime hours.
