Laughing Dog kennels

Kelly has watched our dog Rexxi for daycare in the summers and just recently boarded her for 2 weeks while we went to Mexico for Christmas. Rex was so well taken care of and Kelly put us at ease knowing our girl was in good hands so we could enjoy a stress-free vacation. Kelly even went out of her way and bathed her for us when we got back to make our lives easier when flying in late. Will be continuing to keep Rex in daycare and trust Kelly with boarding her whenever we leave town and can't take her with us.

We have been taking our dogs to Kelly's Laughing Dog Kennels" since 2013 or 2014. Kelly is absolutely amazing

Our dog always comes home happy. They are very accommodating and treat him very well.

My family and I were camping in Vernon and we decided to put our two boys here for 2 nights so they could have dog fun with other dogs. Although I appreciated the call from the owner because my dogs were barking that night...I felt that at a dog daycare, someone in that industry should be able to handle my dogs barking like any other dog at the kennel when we arrived. They have been in several kennels and it has never been of concern. The barking, which I told Kelly, is normal for this herding breed and it did not concern me although she was concerned. I assured her it was normal for them to bark a lot. It's a breed trait. What concerned me is that after they had settled, (We were in constant contact, ) we were still asked to pick them up a day early because they bark. When I dropped my dogs off another owner was coming to pick up her dog because of barking.I am glad we picked them up because they are very sick.We had a larger Tupperware container full of various treats and it was basically empty. She later told me some had spilled out of the container but admitted she did give them a lot. My dogs, after only one night of I assume accessive treating to keep them quiet, had diarrhea and were throwing up all night. After one night with her.They stink like crazy, my two year old dogs bum was caked in poo. And my younger dog is the most loving, cheerful, outgoing boy and he is sad, withdrawn and even seems afraid. Is hiding under furniture...I am really upset about this.A professional daycare should have the knowledge and ability to deal with various types of dogs and adjust to their needs. They are intelligent, loving and fully trained Icelandic sheepdogs... so disappointed.

I wish I could give Kelly more than 5 stars. My boys having been going to Kelly's daycare for almost 4 years. From the first day she met them they loved her. Kelly took care of them like they were her own boys. My one boy has allergies and even when they spend overnight trips there she goes out of her way to ensure he is okay. Kelly is knowledgable everything there is to know about the boys. She spends time on them and they love it there. Everytime I turn the corner on the highway to Aberdeen they know they are heading to Kelly's place and they get so excited. They enjoy playing with the other dogs and romping in the big play area.Kelly has been fantastic to deal with, she has helped me get through the puppy years and now that they are big boys she has been a fountain of information. One time on facebook Kelly posted a video and her voice was on speaker and both my dogs went crazy, they got so excited to hear her voice we had to record the boys and send it to her.She took Christmas pictures of our boys and sent them to us. She shares pictures of the boys on walks and playing in the back yard. We just love it and wish we didn't have to work so much. I love knowing that I can take my boys somewhere safe and where they are well cared for. If you need a home away from home I recommend Kelly. She is so easy to deal with and is straight to the point. My boys love the place and go there two to four times a week and all of our holidays. I am a very happy fur mom to have found Kelly.

She took in my two dogs super last minute and was so friendly, the dogs, not just mine were having a great time. Really clean and they slept the entire 6 hour drive home. 10/10 recommend.

Kelly and her staff are amazing! My trip was extended unexpectedly and she was flexible and understanding! I knew that my Luna was being well taken care of and that I could choose to stay longer rather than drive a new to me vehicle on the Coquhalla at night and be safe!If I lived here, I would take Luna here again for sure!!

Kelly is amazing with our dog Moo. In fact I think he would like to live there. He literally can’t get out of the truck fast enough when we pull up. She is very knowledgeable about dogs, observant of their personalities / behaviours and needs. She has a great positive attitude and loves all the dogs like they are her own. Highly recommend Laughing Dogs and Kelly.
