Not a cage kennel. Dogs get time out with us through the day and rest in a crate at night.

Boarding

A vacation
Small on purposeOut through the dayMonday to Saturday$35 to $65 a day

We keep boarding small so every dog gets personal attention. Dogs get time out with us through the day and spend the rest in runs or play yards, not crates; nights are in a kennel or crate for safety. Training clients get priority, and the public is welcome as space allows.

Included

How boarding works here.

01

Out Through the Day

Pets are kenneled at night. During the day they get time out with us, active and socializing, and rest in runs or play yards between, not a crate. That is why they come home calm instead of climbing the walls.

02

Daycare

Add daycare to a stay on Tuesday, Thursday or both days.

03

Refresher Training

Prior training clients can add a training tune-up or a field trip, so the dog comes home sharper than it left.

04

Straight Pricing

$35 a day for a dog that has trained with us or is training now. $40 for the housemate of a dog that trained with us. $65 for the general public. Charged per day, for each day your dog is on the property.

05

Drop-off & Pick-up

8 to 10 in the morning or 4 to 6 in the evening, Monday through Saturday. Closed Sundays. Daily charges run for each day your dog is on the property.

Questions

Boarding questions.

Does my dog stay in a kennel the whole time at Seeley Creek Canine?

No. At Seeley Creek Canine dogs are kenneled or crated at night for their security. During the day they get time out with staff throughout the day, socializing and exploring the property, and rest in runs or play yards in between, not a crate. We believe all-day kenneling creates behavior problems, and our boarding is built to avoid that.

How much does dog boarding cost in Chester, SC at Seeley Creek Canine?

Seeley Creek Canine boarding is $35 a day for a dog that has trained with us, $40 a day for the housemate of a dog that has, and $65 a day for the general public, charged for each day your dog is on the property. Drop-off and pick-up are 8 to 10 am or 4 to 6 pm, Monday through Saturday, closed Sundays. Daycare on Tuesday, Thursday or both can be added to a stay.

Can you board multiple dogs from the same home?

Yes. Seeley Creek Canine accommodates a second or third dog from the same household, and one client boarded all five of hers with us during a surgery. Because we keep numbers small, book early for holidays.
