Vacation for them, peace of mind for you.

Get ready for a totally different take on "dog boarding." Our resort is tucked into the heart of South Hutchinson Island in sunny Fort Pierce Florida. With water front views and a cooling ocean breeze, your dog will be vacationing in luxury. Our boarding facility is one of the oldest beach houses on the island! Our goal is to create a home-like atmosphere for your pup. Think of it more as a bed and breakfast than a kennel! Please keep in mind, we aim to provide intimate pet care, so spaces are limited! Please call well in advance to reserve your pet's stay! 

*To ensure the safety of our fur guests, all guests at Essential Paws must be up to date with parvovirus, distemper and rabies vaccinations. Bordetella is accepted but not required. *Pets must wait 10 days after receiving the Bordetella vaccine to visit our resort*. Failure to disclose that your dog has received the vaccine within the allotted time will result in a Special Handling Fee.. Proof of titer in lieu of vaccination is also accepted. Pets must be highly socialized with other dogs and humans and must be either spayed or neutered after 6 months of age.
