Boarding
A Safe, Comfortable Home Away From Home
At The Proper Pointer Co., we understand that your dog is family. Whether you’re traveling overnight or simply need care during the workday, our boarding programs are designed to provide a clean, structured, and low-stress environment where your dog can feel secure and comfortable.
Our newly built on-site facility allows us to offer attentive, hands-on care in a calm setting — without the chaos of large group environments. We prioritize safety, supervision, and individualized attention so you can leave with confidence knowing your dog is in good hands.
Standard Overnight Boarding — $45 per night
Safe, secure overnight care with structured turnout and supervision.
Daytime Boarding — $30 per day
Ideal for long workdays or scheduled outings, providing structured care and supervision without overnight stay.
Bath — $20
Add a fresh bath to your dog’s stay so they go home clean and comfortable.
Medications — $5 per day
Administered carefully and according to your provided instructions.
Our goal is simple: dependable care, a calm environment, and peace of mind for you — comfort and consistency for your dog.
Brand-New On-Site Boarding Facility
Our overnight boarding takes place in a newly constructed facility located directly on our property. Because everything is on-site, dogs are always nearby and under regular supervision.
This purpose-built space allows us to maintain high standards of cleanliness, safety, airflow, and comfort for every dog in our care.
Daytime Boarding Program
Not every dog needs daycare — but many dogs need structured care during the workday. Our Daytime Boarding Program provides safe, secure, and professionally supervised coverage without the chaos of open-play daycare.
We offer both Daytime Boarding and Overnight Boarding, giving you flexible options based on your schedule and your dog’s needs.
Is Daytime Boarding Right for You?
This program may be the perfect fit if:
✅ Long Workdays
Safe supervision and structured turnout while you’re at work — so your dog isn’t home alone all day.
✅ Dogs That Don’t Thrive in Daycare
Controlled interactions and individual rotations in a calm, structured environment.
✅ Home Remodel or Construction
Keep your dog safe and stress-free when contractors or service crews are in your home.
✅ Preventing Destructive Behavior
Dogs left alone 8–10 hours may bark, chew, dig, or develop anxiety. Structured daytime care helps create balance.
✅ Senior Dogs Needing Midday Supervision
Medication administration, additional potty breaks, and monitoring — while still allowing them to sleep comfortably at home overnight.
✅ Pre-Boarding Familiarization
Day stays help dogs become comfortable with our staff and routine before an extended overnight stay, building confidence for both dog and owner.
Flexible & Convenient
Our Daytime Boarding Program offers:
• Flexible pick-up windows
• Convenient same-day drop-off (when availability allows)
• Structured daily routines designed to send home a fulfilled, settled dog
If this sounds like what you — or your dog — actually need, we’d love to get you on the schedule.
Spacious Indoor & Outdoor Runs
Each dog enjoys access to secure indoor and outdoor run areas, allowing them to move freely, stretch, and enjoy fresh air throughout the day.
This setup provides:
A comfortable indoor resting space
Safe outdoor access
Room to move naturally
A healthy balance of activity and relaxation
Climate-Controlled Comfort (Heated & Air Conditioned)
Our facility is fully climate-controlled to keep dogs comfortable year-round. Whether it is hot in the summer or cool in the winter, indoor areas remain at a consistent, dog-friendly temperature so your pet can rest comfortably.
Serving Six Mile and Surrounding Areas
We are proudly located in Six Mile, SC, serving families throughout the surrounding communities including Salem, Lake Keowee, Clemson, Pickens, Easley, Seneca, Central, Anderson, and the greater Upstate area.
Our quiet, small-town setting offers a calm boarding environment while still being a convenient drive from nearby cities.
Clean, Secure, Purpose-Built Environment
Our boarding space was designed specifically for professional dog care. It was not converted from another use, which allows for better sanitation, drainage, and safety.
Features include:
Easy-to-clean surfaces
Proper ventilation and airflow
Secure fencing and enclosures
Thoughtful layout to reduce stress and noise
Consistent cleaning and sanitation protocols
Personalized Care & Daily Attention
Every dog is different. We take time to understand your dog’s routine, personality, and needs so their stay feels familiar and comfortable.
We can accommodate:
Feeding schedules
Medications (as directed)
Special instructions
Individual preferences
Our goal is to make each dog feel calm, cared for, and at home.
Live Video Camera Access for Peace of Mind
Even though our kennel is only 100 feet from our home, our facility has live video camera access so we can check in on your dog during their stay at any time.
This allows us to:
See your dog anytime
Feel confident in their care and environment
Stay connected while we are not present in the kennel
We believe transparency builds trust, and this feature gives owners added reassurance.
