What Our Clients Say About Our Dog Boarding Services
We have used Kellmann Kennels on 3 occassions upon the recommendation of a good friend. Zandra is an excellent operator, confident, calm and warm. She knows how to respond to all breeds and listens to what you have to say about your dog. She then matches them to the best location in the kennels. We knew that Zak had enjoyed each stay as he bounced in like he was on holiday. Moreover he was happy and healthy when we collected him each time we collected him. We can happily recommend the Kellmann kennels.

Dear Zandra, thank you so much for taking care of my little Rio for three weeks. I cant believe my sensitive boy came back home this much happy like he wasnt away at all. Very much appreciated all your efforts. We will come back for sure.

Thank you Zandra for taking exceptional care of our three pups while we were away. The kids stayed for three weeks and we really appreciated the effort you took to send us updates that reassured us that everything was going well. Dorothy, Gizzy and Obi had a great time and cant wait to come back now they have made new friends.

This was what we wanted, a real dog place where they can interact with similar sized dogs. Our little dog was normal on returning, with no issues at all. Highly recommended.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Charles G.
Zandra and her Kellman kennels are a great place for your dog to stay short term or long as they get individual attention and the feeling of fresh country air. Before we started our dog boarding facility we had our dog Jep stay at Kellman Kennels and he thrived and was happy.
