Welcome
to The DogHaus on 1st
About Us
At The DogHaus, we believe exceptional dog care is built on relationships, not volume. We've created a boutique experience where every stay is thoughtfully personalized around your dog's unique personality, routine, and comfort.
Think of us as an Airbnb for dogs, a warm, home-like environment thoughtfully designed to be calm, comfortable, and enriching, while offering the professionalism, reliability, and safety standards of a dedicated care facility.
Because we intentionally remain small, you'll always know who's caring for your dog, and we'll truly know yours. We take the time to understand their quirks, preferences, routines, and what helps them feel most at home. Whether you're welcoming a new puppy, moving across town, heading out on vacation, or celebrating life's biggest milestones, we're here to provide consistent support every step of the way.
Located in the heart of St. Petersburg on 1st Ave South, we're proud to be part of a vibrant community of local businesses while offering services designed to make life easier for busy pet parents
