For dog owners, The ARK will offer a 20,000-sqf (1,860-sqm) luxury "resort" run by the company Paradise 4 Paws, complete with bone-shaped splashing pools, massage therapy and "pawdicures with colored nail pawlish." Dogs can watch flat-screen TVs and their owners can check in on them via webcam.

Cats will have their own trees to climb. And all animals will have access to a 24-hour clinic run by Cornell University's veterinary college.

Even animals that don't need to be quarantined ¡ª a huge dog that can't fit in the cabin and has to travel as cargo, for example ¡ª will be held at thefacility until departure or pickup by its owner.

"A lot of our design making is in collaboration with veterinarians and consultants to help minimize the amount of stress placed on the animal," said Cliff Bollmann, a leading airport architect working on The ARK for the San Francisco-based architecture firm Gensler.

When completed, the facility is subject to approval by the US Department of Agriculture. Animals will be charged fees ¡ª still being determined depending on services ¡ª that will help fund the terminal. High-end dog "suites" could top $100 per night.

Transporting animals by air is not aimed at low-income owners. A flight to London for a dog can cost about $1,000, plus a crate, airport fees and vet certifications. And moving a horse can add up to at least $10,000.
