What makes it different

Boarding here is in-home and cage-free, so a stay looks more like time at a house than time in a kennel run. The acreage does real work: dogs are walked daily on partially wooded land instead of circling a small exercise pen. The fenced yard gives them a contained place to run, and the walks add distance beyond it.

Every new client starts with a free meet-and-greet, which gives the dog and the owners a chance to size each other up before anything is booked. Owners of large breeds will need to look somewhere else, since only small and medium dogs are accepted.

Practical details

Hours run 6:30 AM to 8:00 PM, seven days a week. Booking is by phone at 225-362-2461. After-hours drop-off and pick-up can be arranged for an added fee. Rates published on the kennel's own site run $20 to $35 per night, and proof of current vaccinations is required. Grooming and medication administration are offered alongside boarding, which helps for dogs on a daily dose or due for a bath.
