Deciding where to leave your dog while away on vacation is an important decision for loving pet parents. There are so many things to consider about dog boarding: will my dog be safe, well taken care of, and happy?
There are plenty of options to make sure your dog is cared for while you’re away. Some people consider having a dog sitter come to their home, or a dog walker coming three or four times a day to feed and walk their furry friend. There is a better choice for dogs that thrive on canine and human companionship: dog boarding at a quality pet care facility like Joyful Paws Hotel in Long Beach, CA! Discover why area pet parents chose us for the Press-Telegram’s “Best Of” Pet Boarding Award!
We also offer a variety of Extra Amenities for a hotel-quality stay.

We have soft rubber flooring and synthetic grass in our play areas. Guests are welcome to bring bedding and toys from home however, Joyful Paws is also happy to provide these items free of charge.

Dogs thrive on activity and engagement, especially when they’re away from home - but not all dogs need or like the same things. At Joyful Paws, we understand your dog is unique. That’s why we offer discounted activity packages you can customize especially for your dog. Do you have a friendly Lab who loves to play with other dogs? Maybe you have a senior bulldog who needs a little extra tenderness and pampering. Or did you just adopt an energetic Yorkie puppy? No matter your dog’s breed, age, or energy level, they’ll love our special activity packages.
We’ve bundled together some of our most popular options into discounted packages for the most enriching and stimulating canine vacation. Some of these include:
Play! Play! Play! To some dogs, nothing is more fun than playing with their fellow canines. Social play satisfies a dog’s pack animal nature, improves their social skills, and ensures plenty of exercise running and romping with furry friends. If your dog prefers two-legged playmates, our caregivers are more than happy to provide on-on-one playtime and attention.
Cuddles & Love. Is your dog a snuggle bug? Our staff is eager to spoil your precious pup with lots of human attention, belly rubs, and kisses. We’ll even tuck your pet in for the night with a bedtime story.
Brain Teasers. While physical exercise is important to dogs, so is mental exercise. Dogs are intelligent and find satisfaction in mental stimulation. Our interactive puzzle games are constructively engaging, mentally rewarding, and lots of fun!
During our most in-demand boarding timeframes, a $5/night Peak Season Pricing charge will be added to all boarding reservations. Peak season dates include any major local school breaks and May 24th – Sept 9th, November 22nd – December 1st, & December 15th – January 3rd.
We charge a late check-out fee for all dog boarding guests who are picked up after 12 pm, equal to a half-day of daycare. Your pup will still get to enjoy our fun facility while they wait to be picked up!
