Where Big Dogs Play, Swim, and Stay in Comfort

If you have a large dog, you know how much space, exercise, and attention they need. At Pensacola Pet Resort, we’ve built a place designed especially for big dogs, those 40 pounds and up, who love to play hard, rest well, and be surrounded by people who understand their size and spirit.

Located just minutes from downtown Pensacola, our spacious facility gives large dogs the freedom they deserve. Whether you’re headed out of town or just want to give your best friend a fun-filled day of activity, Pensacola Pet Resort is the Gulf Coast’s favorite getaway for big pups.

Morning Greetings and Tail Wags

The day starts early with cheerful greetings at check-in. Our team welcomes each guest by name, confirming feeding routines and any special care notes. Because many of our guests are returning friends, tails start wagging the moment they recognize familiar faces.

Each dog is guided to their private, climate-controlled suite, large enough for even the biggest breeds to stretch out comfortably. Water bowls are refreshed, breakfast is served, and soon it’s time for what everyone’s been waiting for: playtime.

Outdoor Adventures and Pool Time

Our large, securely fenced outdoor play yard is the heart of Pensacola Pet Resort. Big dogs need space to run, and we deliver, with turf designed for clean paws, shaded rest areas, and splash zones perfect for cooling off on warm Florida days.

Many guests take full advantage of our dog pool, where supervised swim sessions keep them fit, happy, and socialized. Whether your Lab loves to fetch or your German Shepherd prefers wading, our trained staff ensures safe, positive interactions at all times.

Midday Rest and Grooming

After a morning of fun, it’s time to relax. Large dogs enjoy quiet rest periods in their suites with soft bedding and gentle background music. Some take this time to nap, while others get pampered with a soothing bath.

Afternoon Enrichment and Exercise

Once the Florida sun starts to dip, it’s back outside for round two. Afternoon activities are designed to match each dog’s energy level. Some chase toys and play in supervised groups, while others enjoy one-on-one time with staff for extra cuddles or gentle walks.

At Pensacola Pet Resort, we believe big dogs need both physical and mental exercise. That’s why we mix in enrichment games, to keep them sharp and confident.

Dinner, Wind-Down, and Goodnight

As evening approaches, our guests settle in for dinner based on their home feeding schedule. After a final potty break and bedtime check, lights dim and our staff makes one last round to ensure every pup is comfortable for the night.

Large dogs sleep soundly in their private suites, cooled by our central air system, surrounded by the quiet hum of contentment.
