CENTRAL PET TUCSON, LLC

What CENTRAL PET TUCSON, LLC does

Central Pet Tucson, LLC is a privately-held, Arizona-domiciled pet care service business founded in 2007 and operating from a primary facility at 2420 N. Jackrabbit Ave. in Tucson, Arizona. The company provides a comprehensive suite of pet care services to dog and cat owners across southern Arizona, including overnight boarding across more than 11 accommodation tiers (priced $25-$56 per night, with luxury suites priced on request), daytime doggy daycare ($15/day plus a one-time $32 temperament test), professional grooming ($20-$200), dog training (group classes and private lessons), and an on-site retail store offering natural and premium pet foods (including Orijen, Acana, and raw diets) not typically found in big box retailers. Underlying technology is light and consumer-facing: standard facility management, a live-stream webcam service available 24/7 through the company website that allows owners to monitor boarded pets remotely, and a basic temperament testing protocol for daycare eligibility. The firm does not offer online reservations, instead directing customers to call or submit a reservation request form.

The business operates on a direct-to-consumer, single-location sales model with revenue generated primarily through per-night and per-day service fees, surcharges (a 3% credit/debit card fee effective April 2025), grooming add-ons (medication administration, spa treatments), and retail merchandise sales. A pet food loyalty program (free bag after 8-12 purchases) and a content-marketing blog (Pet 101) support retention and top-of-funnel acquisition. The company's main facility is staffed 22 hours per day, year-round, and offers 5 daily play-yard trips for boarding guests. The firm has announced expansion to a third location (Central Pet Play on Grant Rd) with enhanced amenities including a 20-foot pool, and is rebranding to Colibri Pet Resort effective January 1, 2026. The company is independently owned with no disclosed institutional investors, no funding rounds, and no parent company.
