All Critters Petcare

All Critters is a wonderful service. Very professional yet totally personal at the same time. Melissa took care of my older Chihuahuas for 11 days and was absolutely amazing. I received thorough updates and photos on a daily basis. And they are affordable! I will never use another service.

FAQs for finding dog boarding kennels near you
What are dog boarding kennels?
A dog boarding kennel is a place where you can take your dog when you can’t care for them, like when you travel or have a really busy day planned. Dog boarding kennel services usually include daily walks, opportunities for social engagement with humans and dogs, and of course ensuring they have fresh food and water. If your dog requires medications or has other specialized needs, the professionals at the dog boarding kennel can help provide them specialized care.
How much do dog boarding kennels charge?
The average hourly rate nationwide on Care.com for dog boarding kennels services is $16.22 per hour as of February, 2023. It’s important to note that the actual rate you can pay will vary significantly depending on your location, the type of care your dog needs, and the types of services the dog boarding kennel provides.
How can I find the right dog boarding kennel for my pet?
With the help of Care.com, your search for the right dog boarding kennel for your dog just got easier. All you have to do is choose your location and you can review the profiles of different dog boarding kennels in your area to learn about the types of services they offer and the rates they charge. You can even read reviews from other customers to learn more about their experiences with the dog boarding kennels you’re considering. If you have a shy dog, hiring a dog sitter who will come to your home may be a better fit.
Do I need to bring anything for my dog when I drop them off at a dog boarding kennel?
When you take your sweet pooch to a dog boarding kennel, you’ll want to bring everything they need to have a happy and healthy stay. For example, you’ll want to bring their usual food with you to ensure they can maintain their normal diet which will help them feel their best. You may also want to pack their favorite toy or any items that bring them comfort. It can also help to bring the collar, leash, or harness they’re used to wearing to ensure their walks go smoothly.
What services do dog boarding kennels offer?
Typically, dog boarding kennels offer services relating to the wellbeing of your dog. For example, most boarding kennels for dogs give your dog a safe place to stay with supervision. They’ll also ensure your dog is fed and walked and that it has a chance to get some love and attention. Your pup will have the opportunity to play with the caregivers and other dogs if they get along well with them. If your dog does play well with other dogs, you may want to take them to doggy day care from time to time so they can make friends.
