Country Kennels is an offline dog and cat boarding facility located in Lakeside, California, at 16922 Rio Maria Rd. According to its website, it is family-run and has been providing pet care services since 1971. Its positioning is closer to a traditional kennel/boarding facility than an online pet-care platform.
Its main services include dog boarding, cat boarding, feeding and general care, medication assistance, basic grooming, and VIP one-on-one playtime. Dogs stay in individual indoor/outdoor kennels and are not mixed with unfamiliar dogs; cats stay in indoor areas. Owners may bring their pet’s own food, bedding, and toys, and the facility can handle refrigerated, frozen, heated, or special diets. The site also notes that arrangements can be made for unneutered pets, senior pets, and animals that are not friendly toward other animals.
The website does not disclose a full daily boarding rate, which is the biggest information gap. The clearly listed fees include: VIP Play Time at $6 per 10 minutes; Thanksgiving and Christmas bookings require a non-refundable $45 deposit, which is applied toward the final bill. Boarding is charged by the day of arrival. For pickups before noon from Monday to Saturday, the departure day is usually not charged; Sunday pickup/drop-off by appointment is charged.
The advantages are its long operating history, clear vaccination requirements, and the ability to tour during business hours without an appointment, which provides a decent level of transparency. Its dog and cat care rules are detailed, making it especially suitable for pets with special dietary or behavioral needs. The drawbacks are that the website feels old-fashioned and does not offer online booking, online payment, availability checks, or a detailed price list, so users must confirm by phone or email. Sunday and major holiday hours are also relatively limited.
It is best suited to pet owners around San Diego/Lakeside who want to inspect the boarding environment in person and prefer traditional hands-on care, especially those with pets that need an individual kennel, special feeding, senior care, or dogs and cats that are not suitable for group activities. It is not a good fit for users looking for nationwide coverage, app-based ordering, in-home dog walking, or real-time camera monitoring.
The site is a basic Weebly-built informational website, mainly containing the address, phone number, and FAQ. From China’s network environment, it can usually be accessed directly. However, the service itself is a local offline pet boarding facility, so it is only practically useful for Chinese users who live in or are traveling to the area.
