Planning a vacation or business trip? You’re faced with the question every dog owner dreads: What do I do with my furry best friend? You could book a dog-sitter, reserve a spot at a fancy kennel, or browse online directories like Rover.com. But here’s the thing—those options often cost just as much as our board and train programs at Serenity Ranch Kennels, and they don’t come close to delivering the same value.

Now, compare that to Serenity Ranch Kennels’ Board and Train Programs broken down per day. For a similar cost (ask for the video discount), your dog doesn’t just get fed and walked—they get professional training that transforms their behavior, boosts their confidence, and strengthens your bond.

They’ll learn manners, obedience, and skills that make life easier for both of you. Imagine returning from your trip to a dog who listens, behaves, and brings joy to every moment—not chaos.
