Who Loves Our Boarding?

Well every dog and human of course!

But in reality, not all dogs can handle being in a strange place for several days or even several hours, so the boarding care should be carefully selected.

Some dogs will get so stressed or anxious that they will refuse to eat or drink causing a health concern.

Whatever your reason for needing to board your pup, be sure they can tolerate it. If you are unsure, it might be best to schedule a doggie day care session before reserving a long term boarding stay.

Our dog boarding services in Bardstown, KY are a great option for the following situations:

1. Vacation: If you and your family decide to take that long overdue beach vacation, you will need someone to look after your dog. Having your neighbor look after them is an option, but they are not able to monitor them 24/7 in case something unexpected happens.

When you board with us, your dog gets around the clock care and attention.

2. Medical Emergency: You or someone in your family could be experiencing a medical emergency and need someone to tend to your dog while you are in the hospital or at home healing. Boarding your pet might be the best option.

3. Entertaining Guests: We would like to think everyone loves dogs, but that’s not always the case. If you are hosting a large party, it might be wise to board your dog. Large crowds may make your dog scared and act out. This way, you don’t have to keep them locked in a spare room and your guests don’t have a curious dog trying to steal their food.

4. Moving: Moving to a new home is stressful for everyone involved. By boarding your dog, they are safe from the movers hauling heavy furniture around. During this time, they may also get nervous and attempt to run away while the door being constantly opened.

Why Choose The Critter Cradle

We know you have options when it comes to trusting a dog boarding facility and we thank you for giving us a chance.

24/7 Monitoring: Our staff monitors the well-being and status of every dog in our care during the day. At night, cameras and alarms are utilized. All of their needs will be met and should an emergency come up, we will act accordingly and quickly to ensure the safety of your pup.

More Frequent Breaks: Many facilities only let their dogs out 2-3 times a day. Not us. Our dog boarding facility in Bardstown, KY promises a minimum of 6 outdoor potty/play breaks everyday. This allows your dog to get more exercise and relieve themselves more reguarly.

Photo Updates: During your dog’s stay with us, you will receive photos a few times each day as a wellness check. This way you know your dog is okay and hopefully won’t miss them as much!
