Sam Russell's Pet Provisions

Sam Russell's Pet Provisions is a dog boarding and daycare facility at 1104 Tunnell Hill Road in Elizabethtown, Kentucky. Along with overnight stays, it offers grooming, training, and dog swimming, and it boards cats too. Small, medium, and large dogs are all accepted.

What are the boarding options?

Dogs stay in themed luxury boarding suites, and private suites are available. The building is climate controlled and uses a UV sterilizing ductwork system. At night, calming classical music plays through the kennel. Cats get their own tri-level condos, which helps households that need to board both.

How are dogs supervised?

Supervision is the detail that stands out here. The facility lists 24/7 supervision and more than 40 monitored surveillance cameras. The owners also keep watch by video overnight. If you're traveling, webcam access lets you check in on your dog. Staff can give medication during a stay, which matters for older dogs or dogs on a daily routine.

What else is on site?

• Indoor heated saltwater aquatic center for dog swimming
• All-season outdoor yards with artificial grass and shade canopies
• Indoor play area and a daycare program
• Grooming and obedience training
• A pet supply shop

The indoor pool gives active dogs a way to burn off energy when the weather turns. The outdoor yards are shaded and built for use in every season.
