Animal Friends Pet Care understands that Labrador Retriever boarding isn't one-size-fits-all. With a outgoing, active, and friendly temperament and high — need significant daily exercise to prevent restlessness exercise needs, Labrador Retrievers require boarding staff who know the breed. Our team has years of experience caring for Labrador Retrievers and tailors every stay to their specific needs.
Separation anxiety & settling in: Labs handle boarding well; their social nature means they enjoy the company of staff and other dogs. We send photo and video updates so you can see them comfortable and relaxed throughout their stay.
Exercise & socialization: Outstanding in play groups; typically get along with everyone. Our facility features a commercial-grade agility park and supervised outdoor play areas. Labrador Retrievers get structured exercise — not just potty breaks — customized to their energy level.
Feeding & health: Labs will eat anything and everything; strict portions are important. 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.
Labrador Retriever 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 Labrador Retriever anytime, from anywhere.
