Welcome to Alpine: The Only Resort Where Sniffing Butt is Encouraged. 🌲🐾

Let’s be honest: your dog works hard. They protect the house from the mailman, they pre-wash your dinner plates, and they provide 24/7 emotional support. Don’t they deserve a vacation, too?

At Alpine, we’ve traded the “kennel” vibe for a mountain-resort experience. While you’re out doing human stuff, your pup will be living their absolute best life in our climate-controlled suites, wondering why you don’t have a “Pup-arazzi” following you around at home.


The Room Rates 🏨

Because your dog has higher standards than a backpacker.

Standard Boarding Stay: $50 / night ($45/night for multiple pups)

We don’t do “cages,” and we certainly don’t do “boredom.” Every Alpine guest enjoys:

  • Private Indoor/Outdoor Access: Your pup has 24/7 access to their very own private run. If they want to feel the midnight breeze at 3 AM or snuggle inside at Noon, the choice is theirs.

  • The “No-Crate” Guarantee: We believe in room to stretch. Your dog will never be crated; they have their own spacious, temperature-controlled suite.

  • Expert Human Servants: We are fluent in “Dog.” From the wiggly socialites to our most anxious guests, we specialize in dog language and high-level care for every personality type.

  • Fort Knox Security: With security cameras monitoring the grounds 24/7, your pup is safer here than a squirrel in a tree.

  • Owners on the property. Your pup is never alone.

We love this place and, more importantly, our dogs love it. They run right up to the door whenever we take them.

Alpine Kennels is an incredible place for our anxious dog! They do a great job taking care of his needs, either for just 1 day or for a weekend! We definitely recommend!

There is nobody else or any where else I would trust my dogs care with. The owners are sweet and awesome and go beyond making us feel comfortable knowing our fur babies will be well taken care of while we are on vacation.
