Animal Friends Pet Care understands that Basset Hound boarding isn't one-size-fits-all. With a patient, low-key, and charming temperament and low to moderate — enjoy walks but happy to lounge exercise needs, Basset Hounds require boarding staff who know the breed. Our team has years of experience caring for Basset Hounds and tailors every stay to their specific needs.
Separation anxiety & settling in: Basset Hounds are laid-back and typically board without any issues; they're natural easy-going guests. We send photo and video updates so you can see them comfortable and relaxed throughout their stay.
Exercise & socialization: Friendly with everyone; their relaxed nature fits any group setting. Our facility features a commercial-grade agility park and supervised outdoor play areas. Basset Hounds get structured exercise — not just potty breaks — customized to their energy level.
Feeding & health: Bassets love food; strict portions prevent weight gain during boarding. Clean ears regularly during stay. We administer medications on schedule at no extra charge, and our team monitors for any health concerns throughout the stay.
Every boarding suite is private, climate-controlled (68-72°F year-round), and equipped with a 24/7 live camera you can access from any device. After Hurricane Michael, we invested $120,000 in solar power, battery banks, and a private deep well — making us the only Panama City boarding facility prepared for multi-day outages.
Basset Hound owners across Panama City, Lynn Haven, and Bay County trust Animal Friends for overnight and extended boarding — and the 24/7 live cameras mean you can check on your Basset Hound anytime, from anywhere.
