Highland Kennel truly feels like a second home for my dog, Bailey. From the moment we walk through the doors, the staff greets her by name and treats her like family. They take the time to learn each pet’s personality, quirks, and comfort needs, which means Bailey always feels relaxed and content during her stays. I’ve never once worried about her while I’m away because I know she’s getting the same love and attention she receives at home. Every time I pick her up, she’s calm, clean, and clearly well cared for. It’s obvious that everyone at Highland Kennel genuinely loves animals and takes pride in providing a safe, happy, and nurturing environment

I took my golden retriever, Max, to Highland Kennel for a bath and light grooming, and the experience was nothing short of amazing. Max has always been nervous about baths, but the staff handled him with such gentleness and patience that he was completely at ease. When I picked him up, his coat was shining, soft, and smelled wonderful for days. What really stood out to me was how thorough they were, taking the time to clean his ears, trim his nails, and make sure he was comfortable every step of the way. The groomers clearly take pride in their work and care deeply about each pet’s experience.

The team at Highland Kennel goes above and beyond when it comes to nutrition. They take pet health seriously and carefully choose only premium food lines for their guests. They even monitor ingredient changes from well-known brands to make sure everything remains safe and high quality. My dog’s coat has become glossier, and her digestion and energy have noticeably improved since she started staying there. It’s clear that proper nutrition makes a huge difference in her health and happiness. I really appreciate that they treat every pet’s diet as an important part of their overall care, not an afterthought.

Finding a quality kennel that’s also affordable can be a challenge, but Highland Kennel makes it possible to have both. Their rates are fair and transparent, and you can truly see the value in the level of care they provide. My two dogs always come home happy, well-fed, and sparkling clean after their stay. The staff takes time to communicate with me about how my dogs did and any special moments during their visit. It’s rare to find a facility that provides this kind of personal attention while keeping prices reasonable, and that’s why Highland Kennel has become our go-to choice for boarding.

Highland Kennel did an outstanding job with my poodle’s grooming appointment. They provided a light trim that was perfectly done—neat, even, and flattering to her natural coat. My dog looked adorable and felt so much more comfortable afterward. The groomers took the time to make sure her coat was tangle-free, her paws were trimmed safely, and her face was cleaned up beautifully. She can be fidgety, but they were incredibly patient and reassuring throughout the entire process. You can tell they truly care about the comfort and confidence of every pet that comes through their doors

From the moment I arrived, it was clear that Highland Kennel is managed by people who care deeply about what they do. The facility is spotless, well-organized, and thoughtfully designed to make pets feel secure and comfortable. Every staff member I’ve interacted with has been kind, knowledgeable, and professional. They go above and beyond to make sure every animal receives individual attention and affection. It’s comforting to know that while my dog is there, she’s surrounded by people who treat her as if she were their own. Highland Kennel has become a trusted part of our family’s routine, and I wouldn’t take my dog anywhere else.
– Tanya G., Monroe, NJ ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
My dog has stayed at Highland Kennel multiple times, and each visit has been fantastic. The staff keeps track of his diet, playtime, and health needs with incredible attention to detail. They always make sure his feeding routine matches what he’s used to at home, and they choose nutritious, high-quality food that supports his overall well-being. He gets plenty of exercise, socialization, and care, and it’s obvious how happy he is when I pick him up. I honestly believe that the combination of love, cleanliness, and excellent nutrition he receives at Highland Kennel has contributed to his health and longevity. It’s a rare comfort to find a place where you can see the positive impact their care has on your pet’s life.
