K9 Resorts Luxury Pet Hotels

Founders and CEO’s Steven and Jason Parker were just 14 and 12 years old when they decided to start a pet sitting business to earn extra cash.  In 2005, the first K9 Resorts Luxury Pet Hotel was born.  Suffice it to say, these two are serious about the pet care business.  5 different suites are available, from a traditional boarding environment, to an 8×8 luxury suite with TV entertainment. This is nicer (and bigger) than my first dorm room!  Other amenities include luxury bedding, premium Blue Buffalo meals choice of all-day play, or 1-on-1 play with staff.  There is also an option for multiple pets.  A FAQ section even includes tips for a stress-free homecoming for your best friend.

Daycare services include an outdoor “pet safe” courtyard with plenty of room to run and play, or suites where pets can relax and unwind.  There are separate programs for small dogs and for large dogs.  Play areas are also separated by size to prevent intimidation by large breeds.  (I am not proud to say that in our neighborhood, it’s my small dog that intimidates the big dogs…) Trained staff members are passionate about providing the best care no matter what size the dog, and each dog undergoes a comprehensive evaluation process to determine the most suitable (and enjoyable) play environment.  You’ll find more information online at https://www.k9resorts.com/brookfield/.  Or stop in at 19255 W Bluemound Rd.
