Thornton Kids Park

Boarding a dog in Cape Town means understanding the seasonal rhythm of the Mother City—summer heat, winter storms, and the unpredictable Atlantic wind that can stress an anxious animal. Thornton Kids Park operates with the reality that most owners work full days and travel for work, so kennels need proper ventilation, shade rotations, and staff who notice when a dog isn't eating well or is pacing at night. Exercise yards, secure fencing that handles Cape's wind gusts, and water management during water restrictions are non-negotiable. The operation has to handle breed-specific needs too: heavy coats in summer, anxiety in fireworks season, and the logistics of feeding different diets without cross-contamination.
