The present invention relates to systems and methods for controlling the environment of pet habitats. In one embodiment, an environmentally-controlled pet habitat includes a base, a forced-air inlet and a forced-air guide. The base is configured to accommodate a pet. The forced-air inlet is coupled to a forced-air outlet of a building ventilation system. The forced-air guide is coupled to the forced-air inlet and directs airflow substantially toward the base. The pet habitat may include a riser for supporting the forced-air guide and enabling the forced-air guide to direct airflow toward the base. The pet habitat may also include a cover and an auxiliary environmental controller.
