Key takeaways
- Dog hotels in central Taipei often fill up early around long weekends, summer and Chinese New Year.
- Looking just outside Taipei — with pickup from Taipei, New Taipei or Taoyuan — often turns up availability.
- Message us on LINE (English is fine) with your dog’s details; first-time guests may need a daycare assessment.
Why everywhere is full
In peak travel seasons — long weekends, summer, Chinese New Year and year-end — everyone looks for dog boarding at once, and smaller city hotels fill quickly. Many owners only start looking after booking flights, and find no space left.
What to try
- Look just outside Taipei: suburban dog hotels have more space. Mini Boarding House in Sanzhi has a 400-ping lawn.
- Use a pet taxi: no need to drive — we pick up across Taipei, New Taipei and Taoyuan (Taoyuan NT$1,500 round trip).
- Shift your dates: checking in a day earlier or out a day later can make it work.
- Send details fast: weight, dates, vaccines and temperament on LINE help us confirm quickly.
- Book a daycare day: first-timers and nervous dogs should visit first; some must complete a daycare assessment before boarding.
- Check vaccines: rabies and core vaccines must be current — unvaccinated dogs can’t board or attend daycare.
Avoiding it next time
- Book the dog hotel as soon as your travel dates are set — before or alongside your flights.
- Over Chinese New Year a deposit holds your spot, and stays valid for a year if you cancel.
- MINI VIP members get priority booking in peak season.
- Regular daycare keeps your dog familiar with us, making last-minute stays easier.

How early should I book dog boarding?
As soon as your travel dates are set. Long weekends, summer and Chinese New Year are busiest; a deposit is required over Chinese New Year.
Can a first-time dog board at short notice?
Ask us — first-time boarders should arrive before 3 pm with current vaccines, and some dogs must complete a daycare assessment first.
Isn’t Sanzhi too far from Taipei?
We offer pickup across Taipei, New Taipei and Taoyuan; central Taipei is about 50–80 minutes off-peak.
