Dogs that are picked up after 11 am during the week, an additional day is charged. If you must drop off or pick  up  outside of the set hours an after hours fee is charged. There are no holiday drop off or pick up hours.  If you must drop off or pick up on a holiday there is an additional  holiday charge.  Holidays include Easter,   Memorial Day, 4th of July,  Labor Day, Thanksgiving, Christmas Day, New Years Day.  Dogs must be dropped off/picked up by 2pm on Christmas Eve and New Years Eve. During the week please let me know a time you will be dropping off or picking up.  I'm usually the only person here during the week, so there is not always someone here.                We do have covered outdoor runs on the larger kennels,  and an outdoor play area that all dogs staying here get to go out and enjoy several times a day weather permitting.

Competitive Pricing

Indoor/outdoor kennels allow the active dogs enough room to stretch out and move about without being cramped.  There are 2 sizes a large and an extra large that can easily have more than 1 large dog housed in the same run with plenty of room.  All indoor quiet kennel spaces are also available for the older dogs or ones that don't like all the noise. 

  We do have limited evening and weekend pickup/drop off times.  

An outdoor play area lets dogs get out and stretch out where they can interact with other dogs or just get out and run. 

About us

I have been grooming dogs for over 30 years.  December 2019 we opened for grooming and boarding.  I have been around dogs my entire life, in the past I have worked as a vet tech, as a kid my parents had a kennel and also worked at Country Kennels in Audubon  out of high school.  

I spend alot of time around the dogs that stay here, with the grooming business  I am steps away most of the day and we live right here so we're never far away.  Our grandkids are frequently seen around here interacting with the dogs.  

We do our best to make sure dogs are not scared to be here, we know that dogs are family.
