Unparalleled Sanitization and Security

At Doggie Den Inn, we prioritize your pet’s health and safety. Our rigorous sanitization process ensures a clean and safe environment with kennels sanitized at least twice daily and stainless-steel food and water bowls washed after each feeding. We also utilize advanced air quality filtration and UV light air sterilization systems to prevent the spread of airborne illnesses from one pet to another.

Security is paramount. We have installed security cameras in pet areas, including a system with 360-degree coverage outside the building. You can also be confident that all pet areas are secured behind locked doors that only authorized personnel can access via a badge swipe system.
