Hillrise Kennels

Hillrise Kennels is a traditional boarding kennel in Fremont, NE, that takes both dogs and cats while their owners are away. It handles dog boarding for every size on the scale, from small dogs up through giant breeds. Published rates run from $12 to $30 per day.

Services and amenities

• Boarding for dogs and cats in accommodations of various sizes and styles
• A Large Family Suite, so pets from the same household can share a space
• Grooming, plus full-service baths during a stay and exit baths before pickup
• Medication administration for pets that need it
• Optional add-ons: two meals per day, potty walks, and supervised playtime

What makes it different

The Large Family Suite is the detail worth noting for multi-pet households. Instead of splitting siblings into separate spaces, the kennel can keep pets from the same family together. Staff also handle medication, which matters for older dogs and any dog on a daily prescription. The range of accommodation sizes and styles means a giant breed and a small dog aren't squeezed into the same setup.

Practical details

The kennel sits at 2650 County Rd 11 Lot 1, Fremont, NE 68025. Booking is handled online, and the kennel can be reached at (402) 727-5375 or lisa@hillrisekennels.com. Vaccinations are required for every pet that stays, so owners should have records ready before drop-off. Grooming and baths can be scheduled alongside a stay, which saves a second trip for a dog coming home after a long trip. Owners looking at a multi-week stay or a pet with medical needs will find the pricing published up front, which is not always the case at boarding facilities in the area.
