As a Pittsburgh native, Shady Side Academy graduate, and pet owner my entire life, my passion extends to opening our doors to Steel City Greyhounds Inc. so that we can be a part of finding loving homes for retired racing greyhounds.
I am so thankful and blessed to be surrounded by such dedicated employees and most importantly, friends, with whom I trust implicitly in caring for each and every animal that comes into the Golden Bone Pet Resort. Since November 1988, I have devoted my life to establishing and maintaining a safe, clean, and friendly environment for you and your pets. Thank you, Helen, Michael, Kristie, Tracy, Emily, Sara, and all the staff past and present making it all possible.

The Golden Bone Pet Resort is open from 9am to 5pm Monday through Saturday. The Golden Bone is closed Sundays and holidays. There is a $40 fee plus an extra day charge for opening the Pet Resort after hours.

There is no "check-out" or "check-in" time. Pets are charged for the day they "check-in", but not for the day they "check-out". There is a minimum 3-day boarding charge in July, August and on holidays. Pets that are picked up prior to their reserved depart date will be charged for one extra day. To avoid this charge please notify the Golden Bone at least one day prior to checkout.

A $25 non-refundable deposit may be required for holidays and July and August boarding.

We serve all Iams dry pet food products. You are welcome to bring your own food.

"CHECKING IN" - Boarding can be a very exciting and pleasant experience for your pet. It can also be stressful. To eliminate as much of this stress as possible we recommend that you make your check in as short as possible. If you are stressed, your pet will be also.

"CHECKING OUT" - Expect your pet to take a day or two to get back to normal. It is not unusual for your pet's pooping, peeing, eating, and drinking habits to be a little off the mark. Also, do not be surprised if your pet is tired when he or she gets home. Most pets are very active at The Golden Bone!

The Golden Bone does not accept any bedding from home. Clean bedding is provided daily for your pet. We do this because it keeps our resort cleaner and allows us to spend more time with the pets. You may request either a hammock bed or a lambskin mat or a combination of both.

You are welcome to bring in a few toys for your pet, but toys will not be returned at check out.
