What changes boarding cost
Size and region are the two biggest factors. A medium Vizsla needs a larger run and more handling than a toy breed, and prices in major metros run 30–50% above rural rates. Our numbers already scale to this breed's size.
Peak seasons (holidays, summer) carry surcharges of 15–30% at most facilities, and many require proof of vaccinations plus a temperament test before the first stay.
In-home boarding (Rover-style) often undercuts traditional kennels and suits anxious dogs, while luxury "pet resorts" with webcams and suites sit well above these medians.
