What Pet Parents Say
Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about dog boarding in Seattle
Do you board cats separately from dogs?
Yes. Our cat boarding suites are kept completely separate from our dog spaces. Cats stay in their own quiet rooms away from dog noise and activity, so your feline stays calm and comfortable throughout their stay.
How much does cat boarding cost in Seattle?
Cat boarding at PawsVIP starts at $29.99/night. Multi-night discounts are available, and we accommodate special dietary needs and most medications at no extra charge. See our full pricing during booking — typical 7-night stays land between $210 and $260 before any add-ons.
Can you give my cat medication during their stay?
Yes. Our staff is experienced in administering oral medications, eye drops, ear treatments, and most subcutaneous injections. Just provide your cat's medication schedule when you book, and we'll follow it exactly.
Do you offer airport cat boarding near SeaTac?
Yes. Our Tukwila location is minutes from SeaTac Airport, making us a popular choice for cat boarding when you're traveling. We offer 5 AM drop-off and 9 PM pickup to accommodate flight schedules — much more flexible than the standard 7 AM–6 PM window most facilities offer.
What do I need to bring for my cat's boarding stay?
We provide everything your cat needs including food, litter, and bedding. You're welcome to bring a favorite toy, blanket, or worn item from home — familiar scents help cats settle in faster, especially first-time boarders.
Is cat boarding cheaper than a cat sitter in Seattle?
For stays of 3+ nights, boarding is usually more cost-effective. Drop-in cat sitters in Seattle average $25–$40 per visit, with most cats needing 2 visits per day — that's $50–$80/day. PawsVIP cat boarding starts at $29.99/night and includes continuous staff presence, not just two brief drop-ins.
Do you board senior cats or cats with health issues?
Yes. Our staff has experience caring for senior cats and cats with conditions like diabetes, kidney disease, and hyperthyroidism. Please let us know about any health concerns when booking so we can accommodate your cat's needs and have the right protocols in place.
