Have To Say
K9 Dorms is fantastic! I have never boarded my dog before and wasnât sure that he would do well boarding. Matt did a great job of providing a tour of the facility, answering all of my questions and providing a run down of what a day is like for the pets when they are there. We WILL be back, they care for your pet as if it is their own! đ¶
Sandy
They took excellent care of our Hank! Facilities were clean and took time to play with our dog (without charging extra like other places). We really appreciate the promptness of responding to messages about how Hank was doing and sending photo updates. We will definately use them again! Wonderful place!
Nicki

Blossom and Dolly are our kids so we really appreciate the extra care that K9 Dorms provides! Highly recommend, so much so that Brad and I are even looking at future dates so we can schedule early with them!! Huge thanks to Matt and Tera!! Itâs like our dogs are also having vaca while we are away!!!
Sue
Hands down best boarding experience for our two pups. Matt and Tera were awesome to work with and took great care of Gunner and Willow. Administered our bulldogâs medications without an up-charge and they both came home and slept all day! Loved seeing photos on their page throughout the holiday as well. Will definitely be returning for future stays!
