Stone Mountain Pet Lodge

Stone Mountain Pet Lodge is a premier dog, cat, and exotic animal boarding facility serving the Minneapolis and St. Paul area in Minnesota. Holding to a high standard of pet boarding, we strive to provide pets with a clean, safe, and comfortable environment for play while their owners are away. We offer quality care and treat pets like the important members of the family they are. Our focus is on the safety, care, and comfort of dogs and cats staying with us. We offer our clients’ pets a home away from home. 

To complement our boarding services, we offer doggy day care, training, premium retail products, and full service grooming facilities for both cats and dogs. Now with three convenient locations, if you need a place to board your dog, cat or exotic pet, Stone Mountain Pet Lodge is Minnesota's boarding destination.

Stone Mountain Pet Lodge is dedicated to providing outstanding care for your pet when you are out of town. From dogs and cats to birds and pocket pets, we have a plan to suit your needs.

Lodging at Stone Mountain Pet Lodge focuses on an individual handling program. Because of that, we are able to accept dogs with any temperament (even aggressive dogs). We have the ability to be as hands-on or as hands-free as each situation requires. So although your dog will not interact with any other dog (unless from the same family), he or she will have a lot of contact with our staff!

Just choose the suite and plan that's right for your dog - from basic to extravagant accommodations, low-key to high-energy daily activities - and we'll take care of the rest!

While staying with us, dogs are housed in the pet owner’s choice of Lodge, Cedar Villa or Treehouse Villa suites. All suites have natural light, air conditioning and heated, epoxy coated floors for warmth in the cold months and easy cleaning / disinfecting. If a dog has special needs, such as a special diet or medications, a technician makes sure those needs are met. Handlers document information on the dog’s chart, including amount of food given, time medications were administered, and other pertinent information.

Whisker Ridge is an exclusive Cattery and Cat Grooming Salon to pamper your favorite feline with love and care. While your cats are lodging with us they will stay at Whisker Ridge. This peaceful haven includes cat condos as well as our penthouse suites, complete with a cozy chair to curl up on and perches to look out the windows. They can also stay and play in our play area, which is filled with cat-oriented toys. Cats are fed and given water twice per day. 

Whisker Ridge has its own air filtration system that keeps the air clean and is located away from the dog kennels to give our cats a more enjoyable, stress-free stay.

In addition to that, every cat has his or her own bathroom exhaust fan to remove any odors. A pheromone diffuser in the cattery helps keep our feline guests calm and happy.

Does your dog need some entertainment during the day? How about some new friends? Stone Mountain’s doggy daycare program may be just the thing you’re looking for! Dogs can romp and play together all day in one of our extra-large climate controlled indoor play yards. Dogs are grouped together according to temperament and play styles. So if you’re working a long day, want your dog to burn off some extra energy, or want to work on your dog’s socialization skills, come in to Stone Mountain Pet Lodge!

Orientation Day is a full day of care that lets your dog gradually acclimate to Doggy Day Care at Stone Mountain Pet Lodge. After starting the day in a private suite, your canine will receive a one-on-one assessment with one of our trained professionals to determine his or her comfort with our staff, evaluate social skills and play style, and will only then be introduced to the other day care dogs to avoid overstimulation and make sure the group setting is the right fit.

If we find that the daycare setting is not exactly the right fit for your dog, or there are behavior issues you’d like to work on, we do have other options!

At Headwaters Canine Training we believe that you have a very unique and wonderful relationship with your dog. We are excited to offer a variety of training classes to help enhance and develop that important relationship! Whether you simply need your dog to learn basic behaviors like "Sit" and "Stay" or you wish to explore their ability in a more athletic way, Headwaters Canine Training has a class for you.

It has been consistently proven that positive reward based techniques are the best training methods for long term success. Headwater Canine Training uses motivational, reward based methods in all our training classes.

Dogs are social animals and it is critical that they have proper training in order to be accepted socially by friends and family. Training is something that needs to be incorporated as part of your daily routine with your dog.

Our goal is to help you develop a fulfilling relationship with your dog.

At Hot Springs Grooming Salon, we are driven to offer your dog the best grooming facility in the area! Our professional dog stylists and bathers are committed to providing you and your pet with outstanding service by using top-quality products and knowing the latest styles.

Whisker Ridge is an exclusive Cattery and Cat Grooming Salon to pamper your favorite feline with love and care. As members of the National Cat Groomer Institute of America (NCGIA), we strive to offer outstanding service.

Whisker Ridge Salon at Stone Mountain Pet Lodge is located away from the busyness that is dogs (although we love them). It’s a quiet and solitary place where a cat can be a cat. Cats are understood here. They are celebrated for being uniquely feline and discerning.

A cat will never be compared to, or treated like a dog, at Whisker Ridge Cat Salon. Our experienced grooming staff offers bath and nail packages to turn even the most finicky into a happy and healthy cat.

Our facility has the latest equipment, and the safety of your pet is our number one concern.
