Tappen Hill For Dogs

A Home-Away-from-Home for Your Furry Friends

Tappen Hill has been caring for beloved pets in a loving and secure environment since 2000. Founded by Christopher and Annie Desmond, our family-run business prioritizes personalized care, spacious accommodations, and consistent communication to give you peace of mind while you're away.

Our Philosophy and Boarding Style

We believe in providing a unique boarding experience that caters to your dog's individual needs. Our spacious, clean facilities and dedicated staff offer:

• Individualized attention: Each dog receives personalized playtime, feeding, and medication schedules.
• Spacious accommodations: Open runs and individual kennels ensure your furry friend has ample space to stretch out and relax.
• Outdoor adventures: Regular trips to our secure outdoor areas let dogs enjoy the fresh air and sunshine.

What Makes Us Special

Our commitment to exceptional care extends beyond just physical well-being. We truly understand the emotional bond you share with your pet, and strive to create a welcoming and comforting environment. We call it our "boarding style" - a method that focuses on building trust through gentle handling, positive reinforcement, and plenty of love.
