We also are required to bring our dog's food when they're boarded. OMG - they would be puking and shitting for days if their diet changed. We do cageless boarding, and it's structured for size and temperment.

We always bring food when we board our dog. It's not a kennel, maybe that's why.

You're providing the food so who cares how much it eats


PP here and I've never brought my dogs' food to the kennel.

Boarding fee ranges from $20 to $40, depending on the size of the dog

Yeah, I don't get the sized-based pricing.

My large dog actually requires less work than my mother's small dog. Why? Because mine doesn't need as many bathroom breaks and doesn't have as many issues.

Not op but this is not at all strange in the dog boarding world. A larger dog takes up more space, has more hair, bigger poops, more wear and tear... Is this really hard to understand?


PP here (the one who boards dogs) The size / price difference would be understandable if the dogs were being boarded in kennel, where there are large kennels for big dogs that take up way more room than small kennels for small dogs. However, if the dogs are being boarded in a home situation, I don't understand the reasoning for charging different price. You're really going to charge a doberman more than a frenchie because he's taking up more room on your couch?

Are you bonded and insured? My husband is a dog walker, and we do boarding at our home...but we charge the same price for all dogs.

You're asking for trouble if you're not bonded and insured. If you're not, PSI can help. It costs about $1,000/year.

Yeah, it is. That's just stupid.

Per day?

Do you have insurance?

Are you trained?

Do you have other pets?

Where are you located?
