If your dog has never been to our kennel before, then a trial stay is required. It is best to have them here for 2 days, and 1 night so they have time to adjust to our day/night routine. We have a limit on new dogs during peak times (all long weekends, Christmas, Spring break, and summer - July and August). Our rates are the same for trial stays as ayr regular rates. A list of assessments are done to inform you and us of your dog/s progress.
Dogs have their own kennel space (4' x 18') and are outside (for walks, off-leash time or play time in our 40'40' fenced area) before and after breakfast, in the afternoon, before/after dinner and at bedtime around 9-10pm.
Your dog does not need to interact with the other dogs but must be able to handle seeing other dogs without aggression.
1. Proof of up-to-date vaccinations: DA2P/DHPP, Bordetella, and Rabies or FVRCP (cats)
2. Your dog MUST be able to adjust and settle into kennel life without anxiety, incessant barking or whining
To understand the cost of stay, each calendar day is one day. Eg. if you drop off one dog at 9am or 11am or 3pm on a Monday and pick up on the Friday by 6pm that would constitute a 5 day stay. $35/day +$175 plus tax.
Occasionally, we can accommodate this. There is a $20 charge.

We have six 2-level cat kennels in our office area so they have a window to look out of, and plenty of activity to observe. They can be out of their kennels in the office area, or on leash outside (if previously trained to do so) twice a day. They also receive attention from us throughout the day.
Yes. We can discuss the care of small pets such as guinea pigs, hamsters, ferrets, birds. And possibly pot-bellied pigs.
