Some of what we look at
A few of the things we weigh up before writing our overall take on each provider.
Price
The nightly rate, what size of pet it covers, and extra charges for peak periods, add-ons like swims or walks, early check-in and late check-out.
Quality of care
How pets are fed, exercised and checked on, how anxious or picky eaters are handled, and how often owners get photo and video updates.
Customer service
How quickly they reply, how clearly they explain the rules and what's included, and how problems or refund requests are handled.
Ease of booking
How to book and check dates, vaccination and other entry requirements, deposits, and cancellation terms.
Reliability and safety
Clean, secure rooms, staff on hand, CCTV access, and what happens if a pet falls ill or stops eating during a stay.

Nekoya Cat Hotel
Nekoya runs three cat-only hotels with private cabins and suites, and it publishes its rates clearly, with discounts for stays of a week or more. Owners like the calm, clean rooms, the free-roam playtime and the friendly caretakers. The critical reviews we found are few and mostly several years old. Two things to watch: photo and video updates are a paid add-on at $5 a day, and private CCTV comes only with the top suites.
A dependable pick for cats, especially for longer trips where the multi-night discounts add up. Add the media updates if you'll want daily photos.

Mutts & Mittens Active
Mutts & Mittens has been caring for pets since 2003, and this dog-focused centre combines boarding with daycare, a pool and outdoor play space. Reviewers like the private air-conditioned suites, CCTV access and regular photo updates, and many come back for years. The weak spot is what happens when a dog doesn't settle: one owner whose dog stopped eating felt there was “nothing much the staffs can do” (Google review, 2026) and got no refund after taking him home early.
A good fit for active, sociable dogs who'll enjoy the swims and play. If yours is anxious or a fussy eater, try a short stay first.

Cradle Cat Hotel
Cradle Cat Hotel designs its rooms around feline welfare guidelines and sends daily photo and video updates with a short wellbeing report. It also offers transport, which several reviewers found handy for collecting elderly cats from home. Owners of shy and timid cats say theirs settled in calmly, and the booking and check-in process gets plenty of praise. We didn't find any critical reviews, which is encouraging but gives little to weigh. CCTV access comes only with the larger suites.
An easy choice for first-time boarders and nervous cats, with a wide spread of room prices. Book the transport if getting your cat there is the hard part.

Kuro Cat Hotel
Kuro is a newer cat-only hotel with private suites, and its prices are friendly to multi-cat homes: the cheapest suite takes two cats. Every stay includes one-on-one play, and owners can watch on 24/7 CCTV. Reviewers describe shy, nervous cats settling in well and praise how clean it is. One recent stay went badly, and the owner's headline advice was to “please ask about after-hours access arrangements” (Google review, 2026), so it's worth asking who can be on the premises at night.
Worth a look for two-cat households who want to check in on camera. Ask about night-time arrangements when you book.

The Luxe Meownor
The Luxe Meownor is a premium cat hotel run by cat carers and rescuers, and it doubles as a safe haven for rescued cats. Loyal regulars praise the patience and affection their cats get, stay after stay. It is one of the pricier options, though a second cat in the same room adds only $20 a night. The criticism we found is mostly about first contact: one caller called it “Hands down one of the worst enquiry calls I’ve ever experienced” (Google review, 2026).
Suits owners happy to pay more for a cosy, cat-loving setting. Visit in person if a phone enquiry leaves you unsure.

Aylabella Dog Boarding and Daycare
Aylabella boards dogs up to 15kg, with structured group play, rest periods in individual kennels and 24-hour supervision. Owners rave about the steady stream of photos, videos and meal and potty updates. Every dog needs a paid evaluation first, and slots can be tight: one owner who had to postpone said they “have yet to receive a response” (Google review, 2025). Another first-time boarder felt a pickup chat about their dog not settling was handled poorly.
Great for owners who want to see what their dog is up to all day. Book the evaluation early, especially before school holidays.

Wagging Tails N Playful Paws
Wagging Tails is a one-stop dog centre that boards dogs of every size, from small breeds to extra-large, and also runs daycare, grooming, an indoor swimming pool and pet transport. Recent reviews are warm, with owners of puppies and first-time boarders praising quick replies and how well their dogs settled. The few complaints are older but worth knowing: one long-time customer felt surprised by price changes and extra fees, and said “we always had to chase them via WhatsApp” (Google review, 2024) for updates.
A practical pick for big dogs that many boutique hotels won't take. Ask for a full price list, add-ons included, before you book.

BreakFast at Fluffy's
BreakFast at Fluffy's is a small, cage-free dog hotel that only takes dogs up to 15kg, with daily walks, photo and video updates, round-the-clock care and a free shower for every seven nights. New guests must first pass a paid one-hour temperament assessment. The complaints are mostly about admin and communication: one owner said “They are slow in replying in messages” (Google review, 2024), and another felt their dogs came home needing a proper wash.
Worth a look if you have a small, sociable dog and like the idea of free-roam play instead of kennels. Book the assessment well ahead and send every vaccination record early.

Shangri-Paw Cat Hotel
Shangri-Paw is a cat-only hotel led by a Fear Free certified founder with veterinary nursing training, with rooms from cosy singles to themed family suites. Daily play, brushing, twice-daily cleaning and plenty of photo updates are included, and medical and grooming add-ons are priced openly. Reviewers describe a quiet, odour-free space and staff who learn each cat's quirks. The main catch is price: even the smallest room costs more than many rivals' standard rooms.
A strong choice for nervous or senior cats who need a calm, gentle stay, and for multi-cat homes, since the second cat is free in Deluxe rooms and up.

Fyfy's Love Pet Services
Fyfy's Love is a small, licensed dog boarding service that has been around for years, offering boarding, daycare, house visits and basic grooming. Owners like the homely feel and the owner's hands-on advice. It isn't for everyone, though: dogs mostly stay indoors, and a few reviewers found the house rules hard to live with, one writing that the “Owner is very strict and has tons of requirements” (Google review, 2024). There's no website, so bookings and rates go through WhatsApp or social media.
Suits small, calm, pee-pad-trained dogs whose owners prefer a quiet home setting to a busy hotel. Ask about walks and updates before you book.

Frequently asked questions
How much does pet boarding cost in Singapore?
Among the hotels that publish prices, a night for one cat starts at about $40 to $60 and goes past $150 for large suites. Dog boarding starts at about $65 to $75 a night for small dogs and rises with size. Expect peak-period surcharges of 20 to 50 percent around school holidays and public holidays, plus extra for add-ons like CCTV access, swims or medication.
What do I need before my pet can board?
Most places ask for up-to-date vaccination records and a valid AVS licence for dogs, and many dog hotels also want parasite prevention and a kennel cough vaccination. Several dog hotels require a paid temperament assessment or evaluation before the first stay, and slots can fill up, so book it well ahead of your trip.
How can I help my pet settle into boarding?
Book a tour or a short trial stay first, bring familiar food, bedding or toys, and write down feeding amounts, medication and quirks. Some pets eat less for the first day or two, so ask how the hotel handles picky or anxious eaters and when they would call you.
What's usually included in a boarding stay?
Meals, a clean room or kennel, daily play or walks and photo or video updates are standard at most hotels. Some include free showers for longer stays, brushing or gentle grooming, while CCTV access, transport, medication and special diets often cost extra. Check the cancellation terms too, as peak-date bookings may need full prepayment and stricter notice to cancel.
Before you book
Prices and rules change, and every pet is different. Check vaccination requirements and peak-period charges before booking, and try a short stay before leaving your pet for a long trip.
