In a perfect world, your canine companion would be able to join you on all of life’s adventures.
That isn’t always possible, though, so it’s important to have a safe place for them to stay while you’re away. At Coastal Animal Medical Center, we are here to help. We provide cage-free dog boarding in Lakewood Ranch, and our team would be thrilled to have your pet as a guest. As an all-suite facility, we provide luxury accommodations for all guests and will keep your pet safe and comfortable in your absence.
Dog Boarding
All canine suites are equipped with a raised bed, fresh linens, and stainless steel food and water bowls. Each suite is fully walled for privacy and features a glass door so your pet can peer out without the risk of scratching their nose or paws on typical kennel bars. Some suites even feature windows that allow guests to enjoy natural sunlight. Our canine suites are available in three sizes:
Small: 5’6″ x 5’8″ (31 sq ft)
Medium: 7’6″ x 7’8″ (57 sq ft)
Large: 9’6″ x 8’6″ (82 sq ft)
Food and Medications
We require that you bring your pet’s normal food to avoid stomach upset from changing food while boarding. If you choose to use our kennel dry food instead of bringing your own, there will be an additional daily charge based on your pets weight. Please place dry food in individual zippered bags labeled with your dog’s name to avoid confusion regarding how much food your pet should get at each meal. If you feed canned food, please label each can with your pet’s name. Bring all medications in their original containers with instructions.
Health Requirements
All canine guests must be up to date on the following medications:
DHPP
Bordetella
Canine Influenza N2/N8
Rabies
In addition, we require all guests to be current on flea prevention. If your dog is not on a flea preventative, one will be applied at your expense at drop-off.
Drop-Off and Pick-Up Times
Our front desk is staffed seven days a week (with the exception of some holidays) for convenient pick-ups and drop-offs. Please note that check-out time is 11 a.m. If you pick your pet up later than this, you will be charged for an additional day of boarding.
A new Boarding Release Form is required each time you drop your dog off for boarding. Please allow extra time at check-in to complete the necessary paperwork.

Dog Boarding Services
We have several accommodations to meet your furry friend’s needs. If you have more than one pet, they can even share a suite* for less than the cost of multiple suites.
Our accommodation options include:
- Small Suite
- Medium Suite
- Large Suite
If you would like to add extra services to make your canine companion’s stay with us even more special, we have you covered.
We offer a few additional services for an additional fee, including:
- Additional 5-minute potty break
- Hugs and kisses session
We administer oral medications in food or treats at no additional charge. An additional fee may apply for all other medications and injections.
*For family pets to be able to share a suite, they must be able to play and eat together without fighting, being separated, or being supervised.
