The holiday's are stressful enough without having to suddenly replace your cat-sitting resource at the last minute. Thank GOODNESS for Kennel Nirvana!!! We had to be away for a full week and had to scramble to find boarding for our 18lb Russian Blue Kitty. We wanted something more than just chain-store pet hoteling and luckily, a friend (with very pampered doggies) recommended Kennel Nirvana for our cat, since they have a separate residence for the kitties. We made the appointment to view the space in the days prior, and were so pleased with the cleanliness and warmth of the kitty space. Our boy is a tree climber and the Kennel Nirvana cubbies did not disappoint. He had three levels to play around in, and ended up spending most in the top near the ceiling! He certainly didn't lose any weight while there either, though he got lots of exercise, so mealtimes are well managed, too. Natalie and Glenn were gracious about our calling in to check on our boy every couple days and we are so grateful for the exceptional care they took with him.Natalie and Glenn are wonderful caretakers and Kennel Nirvana is a treasure find! It's a beautiful place with lovely folks (the owners AND the daytime assistants) who obviously care deeply about the furry family members left in their care. Our most heartfelt thanks for giving us peace of mind by providing a safe holiday "Kitty Camp" for our big boy.

Having exhausted all of my family members who dog sit, I reached out to Kennel Nirvana. I was hesitant at first because my dogs have never stayed at a kennel. If my family didn't watch my dog, I would usually took them to a dog sitter who watches dogs at her house. Unfortunately, the last time I dropped my dogs off with that particular dog sitter I cried when I dropped them off because my dog looked at me like she was terrified to go in and she pulled on the leash to go back in the car. I decided to never use that sitter again so I found Kennel Nirvana. Talking to the owner made me feel much better about leaving them for 7 days. What really made me feel even more comfortable about leaving them was that as I was dropping off my dogs another dog came in and he was so excited to get into the kennel. He was clearly a regular, and the fact that he was excited to be there really calmed my nerves. The owners called me during my trip to check in and tell me how the dogs were doing. When I pick them up, the dogs were happy and they weren't yanking on the leash to run back to the car. I could tell they were loved and well cared for while they were here. I will definitely bring them back here once the weather cools off a little bit and we go on another trip. Also, I received a handwritten note by the owners thanking us for sharing our dogs Freckles and Blue. So thoughtful!

This was a great place for our two yellow labs. Being able to play with other dogs and socialize is really great for our dogs. Being in a cage most of the day with only a few breaks isn't ideal. I'll definitely bring my dogs back even just for a day.thanks!

" rudeness are us" should be the motto of this business. we have used this kennel for many many years and are still not allowed to ask any questions. It's their way or the highway. The pricing is inscrutable. There are more ups and extras, all undisclosed, than anybody can keep track of. Customers are expected to silently write a check and leave. It is not encouraging that the grounds look like a public dump.

The only way my husband and I could comfortably go on a cross-country, 25-day road-trip was knowing that our Basil was staying with Natalie and Glenn at Kennel Nirvana. A positive experience on a previous stay, the setting, the feeling that everyone there loves "our guy," and the helpful communications with Natalie, allowed us to travel guilt-free. When we picked up Basil he was relaxed and happy. I highly recommend Kennel Nirvana.

I let my precious pup be the judge! I figured she'd had a good stay after the first time because when I took her back she was thrilled to see Jennifer! And I am certain she had another great stay a month later. Natalie is a great communicator and so knowledgeable and clearly everyone there is devoted to and adoring of animals! It really did feel like I was taking my kid to camp! Highly recommend!!!

Excellent boarding facility. Clean with a large play area. A family run business that goes to great lengths to make sure your pet is well cared for. My boxer spent two weeks at the kennel and loved it. She initially had some separation anxiety and was not eating. The staff went the extra mile, mixing my dog's kibble with canned dog food to get her eating which worked out great. Can't say enough on what an outstanding kennel it is

Not only did we have a fantastic experience but all 4 of my animals did too! My 2 dogs and 2 cats stayed for 40 days while we were transitioning to the state and they made it so easy for us to feel comfortable leaving our fur babies for that long. I can't recommend this place enough and will definitely use them again in the future!

I have been taking my dogs, aka my kids, to Natalie and Glenn at Kennel Nirvana for the past 14 years and I won't board my dogs with anyone else. Them watching over my dogs has allowed my family and I to take many extended international trips without ever worrying.Contrary to other reviews, your dogs do not have to be "Cesar Milan" trained. My dogs are crazy, energetic, and lovable and fit well at Kennel Nirvana.

We have been boarding our dogs here for many years. The animals there are all and happy. should something arouse their interest they are instructed not to bark! In many kennels the noise is defining and the dogs seem to make each other upset. Our dogs are always happy to go there, probably looking forward to the fun they will have. The individual needs are always addressed. Note that most reviews here are 5s, with a few isolated incidents described. having many satisfied repeat customers is the best review.
