Dogs aren’t just pets, they’re family. Every dog has a unique and distinct personality, a quality that I’ve fallen in love with. After years of harboring a passion for training and loving on any dog I had the privilege to come in contact with, it seemed only natural to turn that passion into a business venture.

United by our strengths and experience, my husband and I purchased Canine Courtyard late January of 2012. Armed with a vision, an amazing staff and a dream location, we poured ourselves into creating a facility where loving, safe, clean and professional dog care is a constant. There isn’t anything we haven’t cleaned, repaired, replaced or improved and we will continue to do so. We strive for high quality safety and a fun experience for our guests.

Hilltop Kennels provides plenty of space for outside playtime or simply to relax in the sunshine! Our dogs enjoy spacious quarters with both indoor (climate controlled) runs as well as a doggie door that leads to their own outdoor (covered) patios. Unlike many kennels, we do not charge extra for outdoor yard/play time. All of our dog visitors have access to their own individual yard time a minimum of 7 times per day. We are a family owned AND operated boarding facility that truly believes that exercise and plenty of one on one attention gets all of our visitors tails wagging!

Kim’s Kritter Care provides custom, personalized pet care in your home, barn or pasture where your pets remain in the comfort of their own familiar environment. We can make multiple visits to ensure your pets follow their normal routines.
