Boarding 

$55 - Per night | Alumni Discount 20% off

 

Heading out of town? Let your dog enjoy their own little vacation at John K9! Our dedicated team of kennel technicians and trainers make sure every pup has an amazing stay filled with comfort, care, and fun. Dogs relax in our indoor, climate-controlled kennels, get plenty of outdoor field time and walks, and can even sign up for swimming or daycare! We’ll keep you connected with photo and video updates so you can see your best friend living their best life while you’re away.

 

Tours of the facility are available by appointment Monday through Saturday.  We would love to meet you and your pup and give you a walkthrough of the grounds and answer any questions you may have about their stay.

 

Multi-dog discounts available. Contact us now to make a reservation or schedule a guided tour.

Daycare

$21 - Half Day | $30 - Full Day

 

Got a busy day ahead? Bring your pup to Doggy Daycare and let them burn off energy while you take care of business.

Every dog begins with a temperament assessment to make sure they’re placed in the safest, most enjoyable environment possible. From there, we match each dog to a playgroup that fits their personality and play style. Groups typically range from 2 to 8 dogs and are always supervised by our trained staff.

We also welcome dogs who prefer their own company! Even if your pup isn’t dog-social, their day is still packed with fun—think one-on-one playtime, walks, enrichment, and optional add-ons like swimming or training sessions.

Multi-dog and multi-day discounts are available.
