Rising U Boarding

Rising U Boarding is a dog boarding kennel at 24036 Lower Pleasant Ridge Road in Wilder, Idaho, taking dogs for overnight and longer stays. Each dog stays in its own indoor-outdoor kennel. The business covers both traditional boarding and in-home style stays, and its own site describes the care in personal terms rather than corporate ones.

What a stay looks like

Every kennel pairs a private 5x4 indoor sleeping area with a covered 5x10 outdoor kennel, and the two connect so a dog can move between rest and fresh air on its own. A large fenced play yard handles supervised time outside during the day. Dogs that struggle around other dogs can have individual one-on-one playtime in the yard instead, and group play only happens with the owner's approval.

What comes with a stay

Some gear is provided on site, with owner approval where it applies:

• Private 5x4 indoor sleeping area in each kennel
• Covered 5x10 outdoor kennel with direct access
• Large fenced play yard for supervised play
• Outdoor cots, food and water bowls, toys, and treats
• A refrigerator on site for dogs fed fresh food
