What differentiates Riverside?

#1 - We get the dogs outside (the real outside amongst trees and sunshine). Many boarding facilities are all indoor and the boarding pups never get outside. Riverside has lots of outdoor space and room for the dogs to actually run, play, exercise and get energy out. This is the main difference. The key to stress free dog boarding is exercise for the dogs so that they can release pent up stress/anxiety. By far, this is the number one de-stressor for boarding pups.

#2 - We have a clean facility with no obnoxious odors. Most boarding facilities have an intolerable odor inside where the dogs are boarded. This is because the owners don't want to pay the labor to rotate the dogs outside (enough) and/or they don't have an outdoor area for the dogs to potty and exercise. Without outdoor space, there is no way to have a clean facility. It takes labor to clean the rooms and many owners don't want to pay for the labor and/or don't manage the labor effectively so the rooms don't get cleaned properly.

We have been open since 2005 and we do not have a smelly kennel! That speaks volumes and we are very proud of it.

#3 We are in this business for the Dogs! Sure, we are a for profit business and have bills to pay and vacations to take, but Riverside is a Resort for Dogs. Dogs are our priority. Our focus is on the dogs being safe, comfortable, stress free and having a fun, positive boarding experience.
