PAMPERED PETS OF SOUTHERN MARYLAND       

Rows of dog runs do not exist at Pampered Pets SOMD.There is no constant barking. We are already home so our canine boarders aren't left alone at 5pm.  Our boarders enjoy our company and nurturing throughout the evening and all through the night. All of our canine guests enjoy a tremendous amount of freedom and pampering.  Since we accept only a very limited number of boarders at one time instead of warehousing a large number of dogs, we are better able to focus our attention on the individual needs of each dog. We truly get attached to each and every dog that stays with us. As long time dog owners ourselves, we understand your desire to provide a comfortable and safe place for your dog while you are away.  You want so much more for your dog than a 4x6 cage in a warehouse. You want your dog to stay where it is more like home and that is what we are all about.....the next best thing to home.

When you board your dog at Pampered Pets SOMD he meets his new playmates right after he has had a few minutes to "sniff" around. Your dog will never go into a dog run.  He can play to his heart's content. He can take a long nap. He can chew on a juicy Nylabone or he can work at getting treats out of a Kong. He can chase balls or catch frisbees until our arms wear out! He will not be bored or lonely. We are a small facility which enables us to get to personally know each and every one of our boarders. We do this by spending all day with them every day. They aren't just "run or suite numbers" to us. You can call us any time of the day and ask us detailed questions about your dog and we will be happy to tell you about his day. 

Your dog is a treasured member of your family
who trusts you completely.

Your best friend deserves more
than basic food, water and a place to sleep.

When you board your dog at a standard kennel he goes directly into a numbered dog run or cage upon arrival much like the one at left.  Most standard indoor runs average 4ft x 6ft. The outdoor portion of the run may be 16ft for large dogs. All feeding, sleeping, playing and sometimes elimination, are done within the constrictive run. Your dog may be one of 50 to 100 or more dogs housed in one building. Small dogs may be kept in the kennel office area in cages measuring 24"w x 36"d x 26"h  for the entire boarding period. Would your dog be happy hour after hour, day after day in this type of conventional boarding kennel?
