Care with purpose
More Than Care. An Experience Built Around Your Dog.
From outdoor adventures and structured daycare to personalized training and overnight boarding, K9 Trail Trotter offers thoughtful experiences built around each dog's individual needs. Not every service is appropriate for every dog. Suitability, compatibility, and safety are considered before care or training begins.
Dog Daycare & Outdoor Adventures
Not Your Ordinary Dog Daycare.
K9 Trail Trotter combines thoughtful daytime care with outdoor enrichment, structured activities, and appropriate social opportunities.
Rather than relying on unstructured group play, the focus is on providing meaningful experiences suited to each dog's temperament, abilities, and needs.
Depending on suitability and the agreed care plan, activities may include outdoor adventures, supervised group walks, interaction with compatible role-model dogs, enrichment, training opportunities, and appropriate rest.
- Physical exercise and movement.
- Mental enrichment.
- Appropriate social learning.
- Confidence-building experiences.
- Structured engagement.
- Exposure to real-world environments.
Off-leash activity and group participation are determined individually and are not guaranteed.

Thoughtful Care, Even When You're Away.
K9 Trail Trotter offers individualized overnight boarding based on each dog's routine, comfort, behavior, supervision needs, and suitability.
Care arrangements may include appropriate exercise, enrichment, structured activities, rest, and individualized attention.
The business operates from a residential setting, not a purpose-built secure kennel. Acceptance depends on whether a dog's needs can be safely accommodated.

Board & Train
Real-World Learning. Individualized Development.
Board-and-train programs combine structured care with individualized training. Programs may address foundational skills, communication, recall, engagement, confidence, reactivity, behavioral challenges, and appropriate social development.
Every program is based on an assessment of the dog's individual needs and an agreed training plan. Training methods, equipment, goals, schedules, and expectations should be discussed before the program begins. No specific result or level of pack integration is guaranteed.

Additional arrangements
Support Built Around Your Needs.
House Sitting & Drop-In Visits
Available by individual arrangement and subject to availability. Pricing is based on the agreed service and care requirements.
Individualized Care & Behavioral Support
Additional supervision, gradual introductions, separate management, specialized handling, enrichment, safety planning, or behavioral support may be needed. Charges reflect actual care and staffing requirements, not simply a behavior label or diagnosis. Adjusted quotes are discussed before services begin.
All listed prices are general estimates for planning purposes, not guaranteed quotes. Final pricing is confirmed after consultation or assessment based on the dog's needs, requested services, dates, supervision requirements, and agreed program scope. Existing clients with established rates retain their agreed arrangements. Additional services or charges are discussed before approval.
Not every dog is suitable for daycare, group care, off-leash activities, transportation, or boarding. Medical and behavioral histories, escape risks, temperament, compatibility, recall reliability, and safety requirements are considered. Modified services, separate management, or declining care may be appropriate.
