Dog Boarding

Our Durham resort is the perfect home away from home for your four-legged best friend.

Let the comfortable accommodations at Sunny Acres Pet Resort be your pet's home away from home. We pamper our guests with lots of love and personal attention and we have the largest suites in the area. Your pets will be very comfortable as they listen to relaxing music in our heated or air-conditioned suites. You can have peace of mind knowing your pet is safe, secure and in good care while you are away.

There is a 3-night minimum for any stay including Easter, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day.

There is a 5-night minimum Thanksgiving Week and during the Christmas season.

You are committed to paying for the number of nights booked for all major holidays and June, July, and August unless you change your dates 7 days prior to your check in date. We have saved that room for your pet and turned others away. Please let us know as early as possible if you need to change your dates. Thank you for your consideration.

Our daily rate includes a climate-controlled room, Kuranda beds with a soft fleece blanket, and daily maid service. We do require you bring your pet's own brand of food as this lessens the likelihood of an upset tummy during his stay. Please bring your pet’s food in premeasured individual ziploc baggies with his/her first and last name on the baggy. You do NOT need to bring your pet's bedding. You may bring 1-2 toys, treats and a chew bone. Please don't bring more than what your pet will need for his stay with us. The N.C. Department of Agriculture does not allow us to accept any bags of food that can not be tightly closed.
