Are there places
where I can leave my pets?
With the exception of service dogs for Guests with disabilities,
pets are not permitted in our Theme Parks or hotels, or on
our Resort or Theme Park buses. They may, however, stay in
one of five on-site air-conditioned kennels, each of which
is a member of the American Boarding Kennel Association.
Pet Care Kennels are located adjacent to the Magic Kingdom® Park
Transportation and Ticket Center, at the entrance to Epcot®,
at the entrance to the Disney-MGM Studios, Disney's
Animal Kingdom® Park, and near the entrance to Disney's
Fort Wilderness Resort and Campground.

and baby-sitting services are available?

care to Discovery programs -- even special clubs for kids.
We've got it all. Just
take a look. Bet you never had a baby
sitter like us.
