Boarding

At Martindale Kennels, we’re more than just a place for your dog to stay — we’re a training-focused environment designed to support your dog’s emotional and behavioral well-being.  Under the guidance of professional dog trainer Renee Mauro, our boarding programs combine structure, calm handlers, guidance and training to help your dog feel safe, confident, and happy while away from home.

Standard Boarding:
  • Safe, structured, and caring accommodations

  • Regular outdoor time in our large fenced in yard

  • Calm, confident handlers to maintain a peaceful environment

Even standard boarding gives your dog structure and routine, helping them feel secure and supported.  Ideal for calm, confident, and well mannered dogs.
