We came to Yellowstone and quickly realized we needed somewhere to leave our dogs. Joe is amazing and took my three dogs with a days notice! He treats your dogs like family!!! Also it is very affordable.

Dropped our two dogs off with Joe. They had never been kenneled before so I was a little nervous. Joe gave me complete confidence in their care and well being. Joe’s communication was excellent! My dogs were happy! I was thrilled! We make an annual trip to Montana, my girls will be staying with Joe again.

I was extremely happy with Querencia Kennels. This was our first time using a doggy daycare and I felt very comfortable once we checked the pups in. Joe was very willing to take our dogs, one of which was in heat and the other who had been aggressive with other dogs and some people. He knew what to do and how to accommodate their needs. I would absolutely use them again. The pups were very relaxed and happy when we picked them up. Made our day in Yellowstone much more enjoyable as they are not allowed on any of the trails.

As fate would have it, a long planned trip to the Baltic coincided with picking up our new Golden retriever puppy from Beartooth Retrievers in Roscoe, MT. Heather’s sister suggested we place Tanner with her friend Joe Scraggs a noted field dog trainer in Livingston, MT. We met Joe and made arrangements with him to board and train our 9 week old puppy. When we were able to collect Tanner we found we had not only a beautiful dog, but a well behaved, well socialized, loving and friendly 12 week old that was house trained, responded to recall, sit and heel commands. The house training was a dream-come-true, but given that he would spend the rest of his life as an urban being, the educational foundation was amazing. Now at six months, Tanner is happily living on Los Angeles, and is still eager to learn and please.

I have left my dog, Lady, at Querencia Kennels many times over the years. I would not leave her anywhere else. The Skaggs run a tight, yet flexible operation. You can basically drop off or pick up your dog at any time. Each dog has their own outdoor kennel, but they spend a lot of time outside running around. Lady is always exhausted and happy when she returns. I know Lady is safe, happy, and tired at Querencia Kennels. I do a lot of fly-fishing in Yellowstone Park (where dogs are not allowed), so it is great to just drop Lady off as I head down to Gardiner. Your dog will love Querencia Kennels!
