I boarded my two dogs at Canine College and the whole process was amazing! I have never left my dogs before so I was very nervous but Sharon and Stephanie answered all my questions. My dogs came home healthy, happy and clean! I highly recommend Canine College.

Can't say enough about how happy we were with boarding our two senior large breed dogs at Canine College during a last minute much needed vacation! We planned the stay directly with the owner and her daughter who were nothing short of AMAZING. Communication was paramount and they were able to put us at ease catering to medication schedules and extra walks as well as planning top tier grooming on the way out. Our Dogs never looked so good! Upon pickup you could see their energy levels and spirits were elevated due to the extra attention they received at Canine College. We will not consider anywhere else for next time!
Great place and care for our dog!
Our golden doodle’s favorite friends at the best home-away-from-home in the region, love Canine College and the work they do!

Canine College training saved us! We dropped off an overly energetic, leash-pulling, spoiled 9-month old male Vizsla and picked up a well-behaved handsome young gentleman. He is still as loving as ever, but now his energy is channeled into being a fantastic companion. Our walks down crowded NYC streets are less stressful, and all of our lives, the pup’s included, are much more manageable. We now make the 90-minute commute from NYC to Redding to drop Gene off for boarding every time we leave. If the waitlist isn’t apparent enough that this is a fantastic establishment, trust me when I say the wait is worth it! Thank you to Sharon and her team for offering superb service.
