Wilton's Manor Doggie Daycare, Resort and Spa
2155 N. Dixie Hwy
Wilton Manors, FL 33305
Josh (George) Meneses and his partner Alan Aghazadian walked away from their professional careers in 2011 in order to open their dream business a pet resort. Although the Wilton’s Manor Doggie Daycare, Resort and Spa was a new venture for them pet care was not.
Meneses had helped open a boarding and grooming facility, the Canine Lodge, in California in 2006. In 2000, Aghazadian did some part time work at a pet grooming and day care facility in California, the Pet Spa, in order to earn some extra money. He did make some extra cash but he also discovered his passion for the pet service industry.
At their new resort and spa Meneses and Aghazadian have incorporated cage free grooming, doggie day care and overnight boarding. They offer their clients and their clients’ furbabies a high level of care, professionalism and outstanding pet hospitality services.

Cats have access to special tri-level suites. They can enjoy watching fish the Arfington’s “virtual” aquarium watching birds through the windows and other outdoor activities. If they want to lounge around all they need to do is slink out to the lounge area.
During the day your furbaby will be kept busy, fed, and well-taken care of. They will have an opportunity sunbathe, swim or socialize with the other furbabies. When it is time for bed they will be tucked away and put to sleep with soothing music so they get a good night’s rest and are all rested up for another day of fun at the Arfington Pet Resort!
