Kennel Add-Ons

To add a little extra to your pet’s visit, select one of our enrichment packages at check in. A variety of options to meet every pet personality is available, or if you’d like us to pick based on your pet’s need, we are happy to do so.

For $10 a day, you pick 2, or let us pick based on your pet’s mood.
For 7-day visits, save $20, by adding a week’s worth of enrichment for just $50.

 

  • Lap Lovin – Is your pet used to plenty of snuggle time? With Lap Lovin’, we’ll snuggle and whisper sweet nothings to your best buddy for at least 15 minutes a day.
  • Office TimeYour pup will spend at least 15 minutes a day hanging out with us in our front office, greeting new friends as they arrive, and providing us with love and kisses. Erm, we mean, providing them with love and kisses.
  • Nighttime TreatYour bestie will end their fun day with a time-consuming healthy treat. Peanut-butter-stuffed Kongs, or yogurt and blueberry icies are among the night-time treat offerings.
  • Fetch TimeFifteen minutes of Frisbee or ball throw-and-fetch in our large outdoor Fetch run.
  • Sniff WalkLet your pet engage in their natural need to sniff with a 15-minute Sniff Walk. We might walk 10 feet, we might walk 1 mile. It all depends on what your pet wants to stop and sniff.
  • Baby Pool Playtime (weather permitting, bath add on required)Many pets love nothing more than to splash around in a pool of water, especially during those hot spring and summer days. Since pool time creates stinky pets, we require a bath prior to departure for pups engaging in pool time play.
  • Daily picture text from your pet Want to see what your pet’s been up to each day? Select daily picture text and your pet will reach out once a day to let you know what they’ve been up to.
  • Search and Sniff MatSearch and Sniff mats supply an outlet for your pet’s natural need to work. Treats hidden in the folds of the mat create an interactive challenge that provides enrichment, enjoyment, and fulfils their need to work.

Bathing Rates

There’s nothing better than knowing your pet got to frolic, play, get dirty, splash around, and then come home smelling fresh and clean. For this reason, we recommend all pets staying at Wye River Kennel receive a bath before departing.

Ask us about our bathing services, and please be sure to mention if your pet has any skin allergies so we can be sure to use an oatmeal shampoo.

Bath rates are between $30 and $45 depending on your pet’s size and hair.

PLEASE NOTE:

Customers who short a reservation after drop off will be charged for the full reservation. Just like a hotel, all pets staying past our (1PM) checkout will be charged for that day. It’s a (2) Day Charge for Guests that stay Saturday-Sunday.

Specials

Fetch and Fluff

Drop your pet off for a day of daycare and end with a clean up bath. $60 for a day’s play and bath. Savings vary but typically will save between $10 and $30.

Enrichment add ons

Select 7 days of enrichment add on for $50. A saving of $20.

Our pets experience was top notch. We felt like our dog was staying with a loving friend. The enrichment and daily updates made us feel connected while we were away. I look forward to our next trip knowing our pup will be in safe hands.

Our dog Sura had the best time at Wye River Kennel. The staff was patient and kind as she was a little nervous at first. She enjoyed the outdoor time with the other dogs and her walks. Bonus points for having her all bath and ready to come home when her visit was over.

We had a family event in my house yesterday and because of the amount of people we invited, it was best that I leave my darling dogs in the care of Wye River Kennel for the day and night. A huge shout out to Rocky at Wye River Kennel. They came home happy and tired. Thank you for taking care of our two most favorite kids! ( They never argue back 😂) We appreciate you!

Wye River Kennels is an amazing place. Boarded my German Shepard for 9 days. She did amazing. We don’t board her very often but when we do she doesn’t eat much, lays around, and we usually end up with a $400 vet bill for infection. At Wye River she ate, was with other dogs without barking at them, and didn’t need any anxiety medicine. First time at Wye River and she loved it. They even sent me a video of her interacting with the dogs as he knew I was anxious about boarding her. Rocky and his staff are amazing. This will be the only place I board her from now on. They also are the most reasonably priced. Can’t say enough about them.

The only place We've ever taken my puggle and now our other two mastadors. Such a great business and property. I've never worried about my dogs here.

Wye River Kennel was by far the best place for my dogs to be boarded while I was deployed for 6+ months. Being in the military for over 19 years I have had to board my dogs at multiple places throughout the country. Wye River Kennel is owned by Rocky who is a veteran. He went above and beyond making sure that my dogs were taking care of while I was gone. They took care of my dogs like they were family and I will not board my dogs any place but there. For any military members within the D.C., Baltimore or Dover area, Wye River Kennel offers a very reasonable military discount. You will not be disappointed choosing Wye River Kennel.

I can highly recommend Wye River Kennel after my dogs’ first time there. This kennel provided everything they needed including daily walks, a shaded play yard, comfortable space in a temperature-controlled room, and an attentive staff. I received a couple of thoughtful video texts during their weeklong stay and a couple of clean, happy, well cared-for dogs at pick up 🙂 This is the kennel experience we hoped for! I’m grateful for this kennel and it’s beautiful horse farm setting on the eastern shore.

The Wye River Kennel is the best and only kennel where we would leave our 3 pets. We have been using Wye River for over 20 years and my pets have always received the best of care. The crew (Rocky's Guy's) are all conscientious and take their responsibilities seriously. The personal care and report card synopsis of their behavior tell me that they are looked after closely and not neglected.My guy's are always happy when they realize where they are going. For my money there is no better place to entrust their care.Bob & Rosemary Sutton
