(Updated on Aug. 9) A business that caters to cats and all their boarding and grooming needs is opening soon in Herndon.
Cozy Cat Suites will open this fall at Herndon Marketplace (413 Elden Street), according to the company’s website.
The cat-centric business describes itself as a “luxury cat boarding and grooming facility.” It will be located next to the tanning salon Palm Beach Tan.
The business was started by siblings Tyler Parker, his brother Scott and Tyler’s wife Alyssa.
“The pet industry is growing rapidly and we saw the need for luxury cat boarding. A place that is just for cats, so they can feel comfortable and cared for without the smell or sound of dogs being mixed in the same facility. We will be offering individual suites for cats to board alone or with family members,” Tyler Parker said.
All suites will have webcams for “parents” to check in, along with other amenities. The team has been in dog daycare and boarding — including its brand Playful Pack, which has several locations throughout the community.
“Herndon is a very busy area in the heart of NOVA and the Dulles airport provides a beneficial spot for a boarding business. We look forward to meeting and servicing the feline loving community,” Parker said.
Playful Pack provides grooming, daycare and boarding services for dogs, while also working with local animal shelters to host foster dogs until they find new homes. The business has locations in McLean, Fairfax Station and Hybla Valley, among other sites.
There is currently one suite available for lease at Herndon Marketplace, which is anchored by Safeway, according to KLNB’s leasing materials.
The incoming business was first reported by The Burn.
