Jackson Creek Kennel

Jackson Creek Kennel is an owner-operated dog boarding kennel in Peyton, Colorado, set on a 35-acre property in El Paso County. The owners live on-site, so supervision continues around the clock rather than ending at closing time. Intake is limited on purpose, and the kennel is never overcrowded.

Services and amenities

• Overnight boarding for short and extended stays
• An individual dog run for every dog
• Clean, well-lit, heated accommodations with climate control
• Daily exercise, playtime, and individual attention
• Obedience training and gun dog training

What sets it apart

The property does a lot of the work here. Boarders can add a "Freedom Walk," an off-leash walk across the 35 acres for a small fee, on top of the daily exercise and playtime. Because the owners live on the property, dogs are looked after outside of office hours, and the low headcount means each dog gets real attention from experienced handlers. Special diets can be accommodated. It reads less like a commercial kennel and more like a working rural property where dogs have room to move.
