Kennel Comfort Pet Motel
This deluxe animal boarding facility features a number of indoor and outdoor runs for dogs and cats of every size, all of which allow access to the communal outdoor area every hour of the day so they can exercise and relieve themselves on their own schedules. All indoor areas are clean, disinfected and climate-controlled, with cooling in the summer and heating in the winter. The cattery's litter boxes are kept on the patio area and scooped daily while dog droppings are picked up at least twice a day. Staff members live in two homes on the property and are available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Both dry and canned food is included in the lodging rate along with food and water bowls, but owners are asked to bring a bed, blanket, medications, supplements, toys, feeding instructions and any special treats with them. An array of pet grooming services are also available. Reservations and proof of immunization are required from all owners, and with advanced notice, a shuttle service will provide animal transportation to and from the local airport. In addition, special discounts are offered for long-term boarders, military personnel and senior citizens 65 and older.
