Get launch updatesWhat it will do
Pet Boarding & Daycare searches facilities by US ZIP code with a daycare/overnight toggle, surfacing certifications from professional bodies that most search engines ignore. Multi-certification facilities rank highest, single-certification next, then amenity-equipped, then un-enriched listings — so the operators investing in professional standards are the ones you see first.
Certifications PawNexus surfaces
Continuing-education certifications for pet care professionals.
Professional Animal Care Certification Council — daycare, kennel manager, and operator certifications.
Pet Care Services Association (formerly ABKA) accredited facilities.
Amenity filters
When the facility data includes them, you'll be able to filter by:
- Outdoor play yards (turf, grass, pool)
- Climate-controlled overnight suites
- Live webcams
- Group play vs. solo accommodation
- Medication administration
- Pickup/drop-off hours
- Cat-only facilities
- Required vaccination policies
Why this matters
Pet boarding is a high-trust decision — you're handing your dog or cat to someone for hours or days. Most listings online lean on star ratings that conflate "I liked the staff" with "the facility follows safety protocols." Certifications and explicit amenity filters give you a real signal about operational quality, not just sentiment.
