Pet Boarding
Pet Boarding
Owned by a vet and vet technician for over 30 years, Armadale Farm Kennel has been providing a healthy, safe, comfortable & happy environment for your pet while you are away. Even though we have a large facility, we treat each pet with individual care. Our staff takes great pride in getting to know you & your pet as well as tending to any special needs they may require.

Our entire kennel is heated and air conditioned. We offer two types of enclosures for your dog:
Indoor/Outdoor Runs:
Indoor/Outdoor runs are our most popular enclosure. Your dog can run in and out through a swinging door throughout the day. Dogs do not have outdoor access at night. These runs measure 15 feet long and are 3 to 4 feet wide. One daily walk is included.
Be sure to reserve our indoor/outdoor runs well in advance since they book up quickly!
Indoor Runs:
Our indoor runs are comfortable for most small- to medium-sized breeds and are located completely inside the kennel. Two walks daily are included each day as a part of the standard boarding rate. Each indoor run measures 3.5 feet by 4.5 feet.
Accomodations for Cats
Our cat facility is separate from the dogs and is bright and quiet. Skylights add natural light to the cat environment.
Each cat condo measures 3 foot by 3 foot and is about 6 foot high. There are two levels to the condo which include a perch on each level.
What to Bring to the Kennel
We aim to provide everything for your pet while they are boarding with us. The kennel is not responsible for lost items and will not replace or pay to replace lost items.

Special Needs
We treat every pet as an individual. However, if your pet has any special dietary or medical needs, fees may be assessed for the administration of these needs. Please ask about the fees when you call.
We can provide bedding at the kennel. We ask that you do not bring any items from home, besides treats and chew bones. Upon request, orthopedic cots are available for dogs with hip problems or arthritis.
