The 10 Best Pet Boarding in Singapore

Trusted pet hotels and boarding options in Singapore for dogs, cats and anxious first-time boarders.

Reviewed by our editors · Updated July 2026 · How we rank

Our verdict: Sunny Heights is the best pet boarding in Singapore right now - best overall for active, sociable dogs. Nekoya Cat Hotel runs it closest.

Pet boarding in Singapore varies widely, from cage-free dog daycare with overnight stays to quieter cat hotels with private suites. The best choice depends on your pet's temperament, vaccination status, medical needs, and how much structure they need while you are away.

For peak travel periods, book early and ask about trial stays, daily updates, emergency vet arrangements, feeding routines, and whether pets from different households mix. A reputable boarding provider should be clear about vaccination requirements, supervision, hygiene, and what happens if your pet becomes stressed or unwell.

Sunny Heights
89/100
A well-known dog daycare and boarding centre with structured play and a swimming focus.
110 Turf Club Road, Singapore 288000

“Best overall for active, sociable dogs.” - our editors
THEBESTSG STAFF REVIEW
Sunny Heights earns the top spot because it has the clearest identity as a serious dog boarding and daycare operation, not a grooming shop that happens to take overnight guests. The swimming and play-led routine is a real advantage for energetic dogs, and its name recognition among local dog owners is strong. The trade-off is that very shy or low-energy dogs may need a careful assessment before committing to a longer stay, because the environment is more active than a quiet kennel.
Why Sunny Heights made TheBest SG · full scorecardLess
WHY THEY MADE THEBEST SG
Chosen for its strong local reputation, purpose-built dog activity model, established Turf Club presence and suitability for owners who want boarding with meaningful exercise.
Sunny Heights is one of Singapore's most recognised dog daycare and boarding names, especially among owners who want their dogs to get proper activity instead of only a sleeping space. Its setup is built around daycare, supervised social time, swimming and overnight care, making it a strong fit for dogs that enjoy people, movement and other dogs. The Turf Club location also gives it more breathing room than many urban pet shops. Owners commonly choose it for active dogs that need exercise and a routine while the family is overseas.

Nekoya Cat Hotel
87/100
A cat-only hotel known for private suites, calm handling and feline-focused routines.
nekoya.co
$$$ price range
“Best dedicated cat boarding choice.” - our editors
THEBESTSG STAFF REVIEW
Nekoya is the strongest cat-specific choice on this list. The brand understands that cat boarding is not just dog boarding in smaller rooms - cats need quiet, vertical comfort, clean litter management and slower handling. Its private-suite approach is reassuring for owners of indoor cats, and the overall positioning feels polished. The trade-off is price and availability, particularly during travel peaks, so it is less ideal for last-minute boarding or owners looking for the cheapest possible cattery.
Why Nekoya Cat Hotel made TheBest SG · full scorecardLess
WHY THEY MADE THEBEST SG
Ranked high for its cat-only specialisation, polished hotel model, private-suite approach and strong appeal to owners of indoor cats.
Nekoya Cat Hotel focuses only on cats, which is a major plus for owners who do not want their cats exposed to dogs or noisy mixed-pet environments. Its concept is built around private boarding cabins, careful intake requirements and a calmer hotel-style setting for feline guests. The brand is often associated with detailed care, hygiene standards and updates that help owners feel less anxious during travel. It is especially suitable for indoor cats that need a controlled space, predictable feeding routines and minimal disruption.

The Wagington
85/100
A luxury pet hotel in Dempsey known for premium suites, grooming and resort-style extras.
thewagington.com
$$$$ price range
“Best luxury pet hotel experience.” - our editors
THEBESTSG STAFF REVIEW
The Wagington is the obvious luxury pick. It has a memorable brand, a central Dempsey association and a stronger hospitality feel than most boarding operators. For pampered dogs, small breeds and owners who want a premium stay with grooming options, it is hard to ignore. The honest trade-off is cost. Owners paying for The Wagington are buying environment and service polish, so value seekers may find equally competent care elsewhere at a lower nightly rate.
Why The Wagington made TheBest SG · full scorecardLess
WHY THEY MADE THEBEST SG
Selected for its recognised luxury positioning, resort-style amenities, grooming tie-ins and strong fit for owners seeking premium pet accommodation.
The Wagington is one of Singapore's best-known luxury pet hotels, with a premium positioning aimed at owners who want boarding to feel closer to a boutique hotel than a kennel. It has been widely covered for its pet suites, grooming services and resort-style touches such as a pool and higher-end room options. The brand caters mainly to dogs, while also offering care for cats. It suits owners who value comfort, presentation and an elevated service setting, especially for pets already used to grooming and human attention.

Mutts & Mittens
84/100
A long-running pet boarding and daycare name serving dogs and cats in Sungei Tengah.
59 Sungei Tengah Road, Singapore 699014
muttsnmittens.com
$$ price range
THEBESTSG STAFF REVIEW
Mutts & Mittens is not the flashiest option, but it has the depth that comes from being a long-running boarding operator. The main strength is practicality: dogs, cats, daycare and grooming are all part of the mix, and the setting is more suited to animal care than a compact retail unit. The trade-off is that the experience may feel less boutique than newer pet hotels, so owners who want highly personalised luxury touches may prefer a smaller specialist.
Why Mutts & Mittens made TheBest SG · full scorecardLess
WHY THEY MADE THEBEST SG
Included for its established name, broad dog-and-cat services, boarding experience and practical facilities away from the densest parts of town.
Mutts & Mittens is a familiar name in Singapore's pet boarding scene, with services spanning dog boarding, cat boarding, daycare and grooming. Its Sungei Tengah setting gives it a more traditional pet-care campus feel compared with small shopfront operators. The business is a practical choice for owners who want a provider with experience handling different pet sizes and care needs. It is especially relevant for families with both dogs and cats, as they can work with one boarding provider instead of splitting arrangements across separate specialists.

Wanderlodge
83/100
A dog-focused boarding and daycare option with a social, home-style care approach.
wanderlodge.com.sg
$$ price range
THEBESTSG STAFF REVIEW
Wanderlodge is a good middle ground between luxury pet hotel and straightforward kennel. It appeals to owners who want more interaction for their dogs, but do not necessarily need the resort-style extras of a premium hotel. The setup is best for sociable dogs that adapt well to group routines. The trade-off is that dogs needing strict separation, intensive medical observation or a very quiet environment may require more tailored arrangements before a long stay.
Why Wanderlodge made TheBest SG · full scorecardLess
WHY THEY MADE THEBEST SG
Chosen for its dog-focused boarding model, social care angle and suitability for owners who want a less clinical overnight stay.
Wanderlodge caters to dogs that do better with a warmer, more social boarding arrangement rather than a basic kennel routine. Its services are centred on dog boarding and daycare, with an emphasis on supervised care, play and a more familiar daily rhythm. This makes it attractive for owners who want their dogs to stay engaged while they are away, especially if their pets are already comfortable with other dogs. As with any social boarding setup, temperament fit matters and owners should be upfront about anxiety, reactivity or special needs.

Ginny and Friends
82/100
A dog daycare and boarding provider known for cage-free, social care routines.
ginnyandfriends.com
$$ price range
THEBESTSG STAFF REVIEW
Ginny and Friends is strongest for owners who dislike the idea of a traditional kennel and want their dogs to have company. The cage-free style can work very well for friendly, confident dogs, and the tone of the brand feels personal rather than corporate. The trade-off is that cage-free boarding is not automatically better for every dog. Nervous, elderly or reactive pets may need a slower introduction or a quieter provider with more individual separation.
Why Ginny and Friends made TheBest SG · full scorecardLess
WHY THEY MADE THEBEST SG
Selected for its cage-free dog boarding focus, personal care positioning and appeal to owners of sociable companion dogs.
Ginny and Friends is a dog-focused daycare and boarding provider that appeals to owners looking for a more social, cage-free style of care. Its positioning is especially relevant for dogs that are used to human company and regular interaction rather than long periods alone. The business is often considered by owners who want updates, playtime and a more personal feel during overnight stays. It is best suited to dogs that pass temperament checks and can settle comfortably in a shared-care environment.

Up For Paws
81/100
A dog care provider offering boarding, daycare and activity-led services for urban dogs.
upforpaws.com.sg
$$ price range
THEBESTSG STAFF REVIEW
Up For Paws is a solid pick for owners who want boarding connected to an everyday daycare rhythm. That matters because dogs often settle better when the team already understands their behaviour, energy level and social preferences. The business is more functional than showy, which is a positive for many owners. The trade-off is that it may not offer the same luxury-room experience as higher-priced pet hotels, so expectations should be aligned before booking.
Why Up For Paws made TheBest SG · full scorecardLess
WHY THEY MADE THEBEST SG
Included for its boarding and daycare combination, activity-led approach and practical fit for dogs that need routine while owners travel.
Up For Paws offers dog care services that include boarding and daycare, with a focus on keeping dogs occupied and supervised while owners are at work or overseas. It is a useful option for urban dog owners who want a provider that understands daily care, not just overnight lodging. The brand suits dogs that benefit from routine, interaction and a structured environment. Owners should check grouping practices and assessment requirements, particularly for puppies, seniors and dogs that are selective around other dogs.

Petopia
80/100
A polished pet care centre offering boarding alongside grooming and wellness services.
petopia.com.sg
$$$ price range
THEBESTSG STAFF REVIEW
Petopia works well for owners who see boarding as part of a broader pet-care routine. The grooming and wellness angle gives it a polished feel, and it can be convenient before or after a trip. It is not the most outdoorsy or activity-heavy option on this list, so owners of highly energetic dogs may prefer a daycare-first provider. The trade-off is that you are paying for a more refined service environment rather than maximum space or rugged exercise.
Why Petopia made TheBest SG · full scorecardLess
WHY THEY MADE THEBEST SG
Chosen for its polished pet-care positioning, grooming integration and suitability for owners who want boarding with service consistency.
Petopia is known as a higher-end pet care brand in Singapore, with services that extend beyond boarding into grooming, spa and wellness-style care. Its appeal is strongest for owners who want a clean, service-oriented environment and the convenience of combining a boarding stay with coat care or grooming. The overall feel is more boutique than basic kennel. It is a good option for small to medium dogs and owners who value presentation, hygiene and service consistency, though it may not be the cheapest boarding choice.

K9 Petcare
79/100
A dog-focused care provider offering boarding with practical handling and training awareness.
k9petcare.com.sg
$$ price range
THEBESTSG STAFF REVIEW
K9 Petcare earns a place for being clearly dog-oriented and practical. Not every owner wants chandeliers, spa menus or a boutique image; some want handlers who are comfortable reading dogs and managing a routine. That is where a canine-focused provider can make sense. The trade-off is that owners seeking glossy facilities, extensive photo updates or hotel-style rooms should compare expectations carefully before booking, because the appeal here is more functional than indulgent.
Why K9 Petcare made TheBest SG · full scorecardLess
WHY THEY MADE THEBEST SG
Selected for its dog-specific focus, practical boarding fit and appeal to owners who prioritise handling confidence over luxury styling.
K9 Petcare is a dog-focused provider that fits owners looking for practical boarding rather than a purely luxury pet hotel. Its name is associated with dog care services and a more canine-specific approach, which can be helpful for owners who want handlers comfortable with different dog personalities. This is the kind of option to consider when your priority is competent day-to-day supervision, feeding routines and straightforward care. It is best to discuss temperament, leash behaviour and any training needs before confirming a stay.

Catopia
78/100
A cat boarding option for owners who prefer feline-only care and private accommodation.
catopia.sg
$$ price range
THEBESTSG STAFF REVIEW
Catopia is a sensible choice for cat owners who want boarding designed around feline behaviour. The main advantage is focus: a cat-only provider should be calmer, cleaner and easier for cats to adjust to than a busy mixed-pet setting. It is especially useful for indoor cats that need predictability. The trade-off is that cat hotels can have limited room availability during travel peaks, and owners should still confirm update frequency, ventilation and how feeding refusal is handled.
Why Catopia made TheBest SG · full scorecardLess
WHY THEY MADE THEBEST SG
Included for its cat-only boarding focus, calmer environment and usefulness for owners who do not want mixed dog-and-cat accommodation.
Catopia is a cat-focused boarding provider for owners who want their cats kept away from the noise and stress of dog-heavy facilities. Its feline-only positioning makes it relevant for indoor cats, timid cats and owners who are particular about litter, feeding and calm handling. Cat boarding is a specialist service because cats often hide stress, skip meals or react badly to unfamiliar smells. Catopia is therefore best approached as a quieter alternative to mixed-pet boarding, especially for owners who want a more cat-appropriate environment.

Pet Boarding in Singapore - your questions

How early should I book pet boarding in Singapore?

For long weekends, school holidays and year-end travel, book at least a month ahead. Popular pet hotels can fill up quickly, and some require an assessment or trial daycare before accepting overnight stays.

What should I check before choosing a pet hotel?

Check vaccination requirements, sleeping arrangements, staff supervision, cleaning routines, emergency vet protocol, update frequency, and whether dogs are grouped by size or temperament.

Is cage-free boarding suitable for every dog?

No. Cage-free boarding can be good for sociable dogs, but nervous, senior, reactive or medically fragile dogs may do better with private rooms, quieter schedules, or a provider that limits group play.

What should I pack for a boarding stay?

Pack labelled food, medication with instructions, vaccination records, emergency contacts, and a familiar blanket or toy if allowed. Avoid sending too many valuables or loose items.
