Noble Pet Resorts is far away (it took us an hour to get there) but it runs an impressive facility staffed with trainers, groomers, and English-speaking administrators. Also, it has an excellent park nearby where they take dogs for their twice-daily hour-long walks.

It’s maybe not the right place for a housecat, but for dogs, it has large private rooms, a sizeable indoor running and play area, and a lot of individual attention from all the staff. We also saw rabbits and chinchillas. In addition to pet boarding, it functions as a Huskie training facility for doggie award shows, and has the ribbons and trophy-lined wall to prove it.

Price per day: 158-288rmb. Book: The correct info is here (don’t pay attention to their English website). WeChat is best (ID: 17317293060). Pickup? Yes, charged by distance, from downtown you're looking at 200rmb.
