    What Customers Love

    I had to leave for a month to go out of town and my dog sitter fell through the night before. Alpine Kennels was able to help and provide my dogs with a great home for the duration of my trip. My dogs were well taken care of. Taylor and her family are simply amazing and very kind. They have lots of room for the animals to play, and my dogs were happy Alpine Kennel campers. To top, their rates are affordable.

    My sister took her furbaby here and they loved it! Their Golden did too! The dogs get exercise, monitored socialization, and fantastic care!! If we lived in that area, our dogs would only go here!!

    I have mixed feelings about this place. They have very nice fenced in backyards, a kind staff and very competitive prices. On the other hand, I worry about attentiveness, as this is pretty much a kennel in someone’s yard run as a side gig. The instructions I gave for feeding were not noted or followed and we were given about 2/3 of our food back after 3 days when we expected it to be almost all gone, so we know he was pretty underfed during his time there. There didn’t really seem like there was a dedicated person watching the dogs, they were just playing outside and someone came out of the house when we arrived and went back in after we left. He was put in to the kennel right away when we got there, so we never actually saw him playing or how much of his time was spent in the individual kennel. Overall, I would recommend boarding your dog here (mostly short-term), but just know it’s primarily someone’s house with a dog kennel in the back.

    We had such a great experience at Alpine. Our puppy was able to run in the grassy areas and get lots of exercise. We will definitely use Alpine again. Thank you Hannah!!!!!
