Lake Gaston Dog Boarding

Lake Gaston Dog Boarding is a kennel at 5715 State Route 903 in Bracey, VA, offering overnight boarding and dog daycare while owners are away. The facility also takes cats, birds, and small pets, so a household with more than one animal can manage a single drop-off instead of two.

What the kennel offers

Dogs stay in single kennels, inside/outside runs, or double runs, depending on the dog and the stay. Group play and outside time are part of the routine rather than an add-on. Staff will feed your own food at no extra charge, which spares a sensitive stomach a sudden diet change. Grooming and medication administration are handled on site, and pickup and drop-off are available.

• Overnight boarding in single kennels, inside/outside runs, or double runs
• Daycare, with indoor play and outdoor space
• Group play and outside time
• Grooming, plus medication administration for dogs that need it
• Spoil-Me-Time activities during a stay

Hours, booking, and contact

The kennel is open 7:00 AM to 5:00 PM Monday through Friday, and 7:00 AM to 3:00 PM Saturday and Sunday. Booking is done online through the website, dogboardinglkg.com. Owners who would rather talk it through first can call (434) 636-7387 or email dogboardinglkg@gmail.com. There is a Facebook page as well.

Before the first stay

Vaccinations are required, so it is worth checking that your dog's records are current well before the booking date. Owners planning to board a cat, bird, or small pet should ask what that stay involves, since the requirements differ from a dog's. For a first visit, it helps to bring the food your dog already eats and any medication in its original packaging with dosing instructions.
