About KLC Kennels
My mom owned this shop, and I grew up here as the bather and the fill-in who learned to do it all. When she got sick I took over, and I have cared for it on my own ever since.
I love all animals and look at them like kids. Getting a pet is a choice, and that pet deserves to be raised and loved like our own children. I do not do this for the money. I do it for the fur babies. If you cannot always afford it, I will work with you, because I know life is hard and gets the best of us more than we like to admit.
More About MeCommon Questions
Yes. I groom cats as well as dogs, including baths, de-matting, lion cuts, and nail trims. Very few shops take cats, and I am glad to.
I have been at this same location for 39 years. I started as a bather helping my mom, who owned the shop, and took over caring for it all myself.
Yes. Along with grooming I board pets in a small, personal setting where they are watched over and cared for the whole time they stay.
I am open Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday from 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM. I am closed Tuesdays and Sundays.
I do this for the animals, not the money. If you cannot always afford it, talk to me and I will work with you. Life gets hard for all of us.
