Boarding Services
At Canine Connection, we do dog boarding just a little bit differently to what our competitors do. Where most facilities try and cram as many kennels and runs into their facility as possible, we decided to give ours a more at home environment with custom built kennels, a calming color scheme, relaxing music and pet friendly essential oils diffused.
Your dogs are put on a proven schedule that ensures they are getting both enough physical and mental exercise throughout the day as well as enough rest and relaxation. When you go on vacation and can't take your dog with you, you can rest assured that your dog is getting a full resort like treatment from our dedicated staff.
If your dog is staying with us for the first time we do require that you set up a minimum of a half day of daycare so we can get to know your dog, their needs and to make sure that they are going to be comfortable in our environment while you are away.
Boarding Services and Prices
Boarding Services
- When you board your dog at Canine Connection, your dog will be staying in one of our custom built kennels.
- Each kennel is individually lit by a light on a dimmer switch, which allows us to control the mood of our kennel rooms.
- Our kennel rooms are painted in colors proven to enhance relaxation in dogs and reduce stress.
- If your dog is staying with us longer than three days we include an complimentary go home bath to ensure your dog comes home clean and not smelling like a dirty dog.
Daily Schedule
- One thing we believe in is making sure your dogs have enough opportunity throughout the day to get out and stretch their legs.
- Our facility comes complete with a 1000sqft indoor play area and another 2500sqft fenced outdoor play area for a total of 3500sqft for running, playing and socializing.
- To make sure all your dogs needs are met, we will have your dog on a schedule of one hour out for every two hours they are in their kennel. This gives your dog more play time, more exercise and more of their mental needs being met while keeping things safe by giving them the opportunity rest and relax after play.
- We keep a minimum of three members of staff on location at any given time from 7am-10pm to make sure your dogs are safe, given enough opportunities to use the bathroom and are having all their needs met. Our facility is locked and secured at night and monitored by 24 hour video surveillance and security alarm system.

Additional Information
When your dog is boarding with us, please remember the following with you when you drop off your dog:
- Enough food for the entire stay. We do have a house food that we are able to feed your dog if you run out of food but a sudden change in diet can result in an upset stomach. We do charge an additional $5 per meal that your dog is on house food.
- Up to date immunization record. Orem City is able to come in and perform an audit on vaccines any time they like. If they come in and we cannot prove that your dog is up to date on vaccines they are within their legal right to remove the dog from the premises and hold it at the animal shelter where you will be greeted with a fine when you pick up your dog. We require your dog to show proof for Rabies, DHPP and Bordetella.
- Please bring your dog in on a leash. We are right on State Street and an off leash dog getting into the road is not going to end well. We are huge advocates for following the leash laws in Utah County.
- If your dog is on any kind of supplement or medication, please bring them and let us know how best to help your dog. We have no problem with giving your dog medications and supplements.
- We do not have a large fridge or freezer. If your dog is on a diet that requires large quantities of food to be frozen or refrigerated, We may not be able to accommodate that. If you need an alternative to raw food we highly recommend Primal Freeze Dried Raw.
- You are welcome to bring your dogs favorite items but please note that we only have limited storage space. We provide your dog with bedding, toys, chews and treats throughout their stay. If you do want to bring items from home please limit to just one blanket and one favorite toy/chew. We cannot guarantee that you will get these items back nor will we replace them if they get lost or shredded.
- Please have payment ready when you drop off your dog. Any additional fees for things like late pick up, facility food used, damages to kennels, etc, will be added and due in full at time of pick up.
- We accept all major credit/debit cards, cash, check or Venmo
