About BDI Boarding
GETTING STARTED
We are very proud of our facility and the outdoor space we have designed and created for optimal doggie bliss! We offered tours for over 10 years. Now, we are focused on helping our guests stay calm and happy during their stays. We have an open concept facility and having "strangers" walk through the eating, sleeping, and play areas each day causes our pups lots of stress! (Imagine having people walking through your home each day!) As a home and a business, open 365 days a year, we thank you for your understanding and respect!
SEPARATION ANXIETY
If your dog has separation anxiety we strongly urge you to use the services of a pet-sitter or house-sitter. Boarding a dog with separation anxiety is not safe or kind for the dog, it is stressful for the other dogs being boarded, and you may incur extreme costs to replace/repair the physical damage that your dog does to the boarding facility. Your dog could also seriously injure themselves in attempts to escape the boarding facility. We welcome a meet and greet to try it out, and we give you our BDI promise to be honest and put your pup's needs above all else.
