Dog Boarding Covered

Our beautiful boarding facility is located on 42.5 beautiful acres in Bastrop, TX! Kennels are climate controlled, and owners are on site.

We offer many amenities and extras to customize your dog's stay to make it as enjoyable an experience as possible including things like private or group playtimes, water play, and select grooming services. We even have doggy ice cream!

Our Accommodations

We offer 2 different types of kennel accommodations:

Outdoor standard dog kennels - Bastrop, TX - K9 Mastery

Standard Kennels:

Our spacious 4’ x 8’ standard kennels are fully enclosed inside our main climate controlled kennel building. There are 8 standard kennels available, and each kennel can hold up to 3 dogs (depending on their size).

Boarding Rate:

$30 per night for the first dog

$20 per night for the second and/or third dog sharing a kennel

Semi-Private Bungalows:

Our luxurious semi-private bungalows give your dogs more privacy and a quieter environment.

Each climate controlled cabin holds only 2 kennels which are 6’ x 10’ in size. The kennels are divided 1/2 inside and 1/2 outside with a doggy door, so your dog can lounge on their enclosed patio safely whenever they like.

The semi-private bungalows are recommended for dogs who are more anxious during boarding and for dogs who are staying for extended periods of time as well as for dogs who have doggy doors at home and enjoy using them.

Boarding Rate:

$40 per night for the first dog

$30 per night for the second and/or third dog sharing a kennel

*Please note that we do not provide facility tours for insurance and liability reasons. Pictures of our facility and kennels can be found on our Gallery Page.
