About Us
Where Dogs Are Family
Welcome to K9 Country Kennels — your pup’s home away from home!
We're Nate and Ellie, lifelong animal lovers with deep roots in dog care and rural living. Our journey began in 4H, where we learned the value of responsibility, compassion, and hands-on animal care. Over the years, those values have grown into a passion for creating a space where dogs aren’t just boarded — they’re loved like family.
We started K9 Country Kennels with a simple mission: to provide a safe, clean, and loving environment for dogs to play, relax, and thrive while their humans are away. Our countryside setting gives pups the room to roam, the peace of fresh air, and the warmth of a home environment — not a sterile cage.
Meet Rudy!
Our lovable Lab mix, Rudy, was the very first “official” resident of K9 Country Kennels and our daily reminder of why we do what we do. He roams free so he will probably meet you in the driveway. He’s our friendly greeter, treat-tester, and morale booster — and he can’t wait to meet you and your dog!
