Tails Inn Kennels

Tails Inn Kennels is a family owned and operated dog boarding, cat boarding, and dog daycare facility at 2888 W Diagonal Rd in Rathdrum, ID. It takes all breeds, for a weekend or for months at a time. Daycare dogs go home the same day. Because the kennel boards cats as well, a household with both animals can drop everyone off in one stop.

What a stay includes

The indoor kennels are climate controlled, and the runs are clean and spacious. Several outdoor play yards give dogs room to move, and staff work interactive play into the day rather than leaving dogs alone in a run. Supervision runs 24 hours, which matters for an anxious dog or a longer trip.

• All breed dog and cat boarding, short term or long term
• Daycare with same-day pickup
• Climate controlled indoor kennels with clean, spacious runs

Pets that need extra care

Staff administer medication during a stay and can follow a special diet. Owners of older pets, or pets on a prescription schedule, should go over the details when they call so the routine is set before drop-off. The same goes for any feeding plan that differs from a standard bowl of kibble.

Practical details

Published boarding rates at Tails Inn Kennels range from $17 to $30 per night. Reservations are made by phone at (208) 687-7024, so it helps to call early for holidays and summer weekends when kennels around the Idaho panhandle fill up.
