    Do you have staff on the overnight in the boarding areas? Do you take pets who require medications for a seizure disorder?

    Hey there, Nancy, and welcome to planDisney!

    It sounds like you're planning a paw-sitively perfect stay with your pup at Walt Disney World, and all I can say is, what a lucky dog! I'm so happy to help you plan out the details, so let's dig into your question.

    Nancy, I'm happy to share that the following Disney Resorts Collection hotels offer designated dog-friendly accommodations (for up to two dogs per room):

    -Disney's Art of Animation Resort
    -Disney's Port Orleans Resort - Riverside
    -Disney's Yacht Club Resort
    -The Cabins at Disney's Fort Wilderness Resort

    Your four-legged friend is also welcome at The Campsites at Disney's Fort Wilderness Resort.

    Now, it's important to note that while the above resorts are dog-friendly, they don't offer boarding or pet care. What you will find is lots of green space, designated pet-relief areas, and even a Welcome Kit from our good friend Pluto! Be aware that the Walt Disney World Resort Property Rules prohibit all pets (except service animals) from entering the theme parks, and that all dogs staying at a dog-friendly resort must be up to date on vaccinations and adhere to your resort's pet policies

    But based on your question, it sounds like you're looking for a true boarding facility. If that's the case, Best Friends Pet Care may be your best bet! Located just across from Port Orleans - Riverside, this luxury pet hotel offers overnight and daytime boarding (and can even provide van service for dogs staying at dog-friendly resorts!). For more information, click here and scroll down to find direct contact information for the facility. 

    Nancy, I'm a pet-owner myself, so I know how important it is that your fur baby is safe and well-cared for in your absence - especially when your little bestie requires medication. While I couldn't find information for your dog's specific condition, I did a little digging and found that animals with medications are welcome at Best Friends Pet Care. So I recommend giving them a call to discuss your pet's individual needs.

    I hope this is helpful, and that you and your pup have a perfectly pixie-dusted vacation! If you have any other questions as you plan your big adventure, you know where to find me right here at planDisney!

    Have a paw-some day,

    Allison
