A new 10,600 square foot location for a national chain dedicated to the health and happiness of dogs and cats may soon be going up in the Arizona town of Cave Creek.
Members of the Cave Creek Planning Commission have voted to approve a rezoning request for the building of a new PetSuites outlet that will go up on the northeast corner of Carefree Highway and 52nd Street.
The project, which has already been the subject of one public input meeting, will include the building of a retail supply space, exterior play space, covered canopies, and misting system.
Also included: parking spaces for 25 vehicles and a six-foot tall masonry wall along the north side of the site in question.
Based in Covington, Kentucky, PetSuites currently operates some 40 locations in a dozen states, offering such amenities as in-ground pools, animal-friendly play structures, and a boarding service that includes room service and daily housekeeping.
Those outlets, until now, primarily located in the Midwest and South, typically measure anywhere from 10,000 to 20,000 square feet.
The rezoning request for the new planned PetSuites in Cave Creek must now secure a final approval from the Cave Creek Town Council.
