Animal Friends Pet Care understands that Havanese boarding isn't one-size-fits-all. With a outgoing, funny, and very attached to people temperament and moderate — enjoy walks and interactive play exercise needs, Havaneses require boarding staff who know the breed. Our team has years of experience caring for Havaneses and tailors every stay to their specific needs.
Separation anxiety & settling in: Havanese are called "velcro dogs" for a reason; extra staff attention during the first day helps significantly. We send photo and video updates so you can see them comfortable and relaxed throughout their stay.
Exercise & socialization: Very social with other dogs; enjoy play groups of all sizes. Our facility features a commercial-grade agility park and supervised outdoor play areas. Havaneses get structured exercise — not just potty breaks — customized to their energy level.
Feeding & health: Regular portions; not typically picky eaters. 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.
Havanese 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 Havanese anytime, from anywhere.
