Dog Boarding & Kennels in Waco, TX

Trail walks are part of the Dog Boarding experience at Sundown Oaks Pet Retreat. A dogs walking on the grass while holding a yellow tennis ball in his mouth.

At Sundown Oaks Pet Retreat, we believe your dog’s stay should be just as relaxing and refreshing as your own vacation. From the moment they arrive until it’s time to head home, your dog will enjoy a custom-tailored itinerary designed around their unique personality, energy level, and comfort.

We treat every dog like a member of our own elite "house squad," blending a structured, ultra-safe environment with the absolute highest standards of heartfelt hospitality.

Our premium dog boarding experience is packed with a balance of vital outdoor activity, mental stimulation, and pure, restorative comfort:

  • Scenic Trail Walks: Our spacious 48 acres offers beautiful, secure terrain where your dog can explore the fresh air on daily, supervised, one-on-one leash walks.

  • Interactive Play & Enrichment: We engage curious minds and playful spirits with specialized, puzzle-based feeding and activities designed to keep them sharp, active, and happy.

  • Curated Social Time: For dogs who thrive around companions, we offer carefully managed, supervised social windows to stretch their legs and enjoy the fresh air with friends.

  • Premium Spa Treatments: Every vacation deserves a little pampering. Our custom on-site spa offerings ensure your dog heads home looking, smelling, and feeling their absolute best. We have a custom blended oil treatment created by Unbridled Equine (they carry dog stuff too!)

  • Restful Suite Comfort: After a day packed with outdoor fun, guests retire to their own private, climate controlled kennel designed for the ultimate evening catnap (or dog nap!) under our watchful, 24/7 onsite supervision.
