At Cottage Kennels we go above and beyond to ensure your pet stays comfortable and healthy while boarding with us. Whether this means cuddle time for the needy pups or a complementary chew toy for the restless, we do what is necessary to keep them happy. As opposed to many of our competitors, we take pride in caring for the animals without the incentive of extra fees from our customers in order to do so. We don't charge extra for exercising or playgroups, special treats or toys, cuddles, etc. that is all included because it is just necessary for the pups!
Tiny Town Suites: At Cottage Kennels we have a specialized and separate area for the smaller, calmer, older, and special needs dogs. Boarding can be intimidating for this group of pups, so having a separate area, away from the bigger rowdy dogs, helps them stay calm and comfortable. Tiny town kennels are all indoor / outdoor suites.
Indoor / Outdoor Suites: Bigger dogs or multiple dog families will have the option to be housed in one of our indoor / outdoor suites. (These suites may be requested but can not be guaranteed as it is up to our discretion who would benefit the most from them.) They will have more access to go outside at their leisure(weather applicable). They will still have the same opportunities to be exercised in one of the big play yards throughout the day.
Daily, all kennel suites are fully cleaned, bedding is washed, and water buckets are changed (more often as needed throughout the day). Food dishes are cleaned and sanitized after each meal. All kennels are heat and air condition controlled to keep them comfortable all year long. Classical music is played for your pet's, which has been proven to lower stress in dogs.
All dogs are exercised in one of our 10 play yards at least 4 times daily. Depending on the weather, they may go out more frequently but for shorter periods. The dogs adapt to our schedule quickly, and are ready to go outside when it is time, as well as ready to come inside when it is time. We scheduled our routine around what works best for the dogs.
Dogs are fed twice a day, however we can accommodate for a mid day meal which is common for puppies or older dogs. We are equipped to store and prepare all different kinds of food. Medications are administered as often as instructed.
Day lodgers are housed in the same luxury suites as our boarding dogs. Because of this, day lodging is based on availability. Lodgers follow the same routine as our boarding dogs, and have the opportunity to join one of our small playgroups or exercise individually.
Day lodging is not the same as your typical doggie daycare. Daycare can be extremely over stimulating for dogs brains, which requires independent nap time after exercising. After playing, dogs go into their own suite to rest and drink their own water before it is time to play again. This is proven to be most beneficial in your pets' wellbeing.
Cottage Kennels offers a full service grooming salon to keep your pets' pampered and clean. Whether you want your dog to get cleaned up after a boarding stay, or you want them to have a special spaw day, we are the salon for you.
We offer grooming Tuesday-Friday's. We are structured for morning drop offs and pickups either before 11:30, if they are ready, or after 2. We understand for some owners there is a preference to have your pet back asap. If you have this preference please let us know, at the time of booking, so that we can accomodate for an 11:30 pick up!
Either way, grooming pets are given frequent potty breaks in a play yard and always have access to water. When they are not being directly worked on, the smaller pets are housed in extra large privacy crates, and the larger dogs or multiple dog families are housed in a 4x4 kennel.
Compared to other salons, our master groomer, Kristl, specializes in providing not only great haircuts and de-sheds, but a positive experience. To us this is the most important practice. Some dogs are more apprehensive to the grooming experience. Instead of just pushing through to get it done, Kristl is very patient to work through any fears and create a good foundation for the rest of their life. Taking the extra time to sit down and make sure they are comfortable, will mean all of the difference in making your pet as happy and relaxed as possible. This means that sometimes their appointment may take longer than usual.
