Boise Kennels

Boise Kennels provides dog boarding and daycare in Boise, ID, from a family-owned facility at 2303 N 36th St. It has been in business since 1939 and takes dogs of every size, from small breeds up through giants. Nightly boarding rates published on the kennel's site range from $28 to $66. Booking is handled online.

What the kennel offers

• Overnight boarding for small, medium, large, and giant dogs
• Daycare for dogs of all sizes
• Grooming, including a complimentary bath after four nights
• Training
• Medication administration

Enrichment add-ons can be attached to a stay, including exercise, snuggle time, puzzle toys, snuffle and lick mats, and a frozen Kong. Those extras give a boarding dog something to do between meals and rest.

How the care works

The kennel is local and family owned, and it describes its setup as one-on-one and individualized rather than open group play. Staff send photo updates to owners each day, which helps on a long trip. Grooming, training, and medication administration are all offered on site, so a stay can cover more than food and a place to sleep. The business is a BBB member and replies to inquiries the same day.

Hours, booking, and discounts

Boise Kennels is open 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM Monday through Friday and is closed Saturday and Sunday. Reservations go through the kennel's online booking system. First responders and military members receive a 10% discount. Owners can reach the kennel at (208) 343-0681 or boisekennels@gmail.com.
