Report
We boarded our 2 cats with K9 for 10 days. We were concerned about leaving them for so long, particularly since one of them is on 2 medications (one requiring refrigeration) and special food. Tiffany didn't blink, "No problem", she said! She reported they were happy and well behaved. The daily boarding price was very reasonable, much better than another place we checked out. We will definitely use K9 again!

What a wonderful kennel with awesome staff and amazing, dedicated owner Tiffanie. You will have experienced staff loving and caring for your fur baby. And a clean, large property. A telling sign that your dog's stay was positive: when you pick him up and he's not in a panic to see you or leave. I am a former dog sitter and my clients always remarked at how calm and happy their babies were when they returned I'll be back. Thank you!

An excellent place to board your pet! We have been boarding our dogs with K9 Country Club since 1999. Tiffani ensures that our dogs are properly matched with other dogs of complimentary temperament and size. We never have to worry about pet vs pet bullying, because Tiffani assesses all animals before accepting them as clients.
