Pom Poso Place

Pom Poso Place is a dog boarding and daycare kennel at 2141 Bannock Hwy in Pocatello, Idaho, and it takes cats as well. The owners live on the property, and the facility is supervised around the clock. Boarding runs pair large heated indoor areas with attached outdoor runs, so a dog can move between the two and pick where to spend the afternoon.

How the dogs are housed

Each family boards separately, which means a dog shares space only with the dogs it arrived with. The indoor areas are climate controlled and connect directly to their own outdoor run rather than to a shared yard. Dogs on a medication schedule or a special diet can be accommodated, and one-on-one attention time with a staff member is available for dogs who want the company.

What sets it apart

For a small operation, the range is wide: boarding, daycare, grooming, and a do-it-yourself wash in one place, with owners living on site. Owners in Pocatello and the surrounding part of Southeast Idaho who want their dog to get real outdoor time without mixing with unfamiliar dogs will find the indoor/outdoor run setup does most of that work on its own.
