About us

About us? No- it's about the dog!

The owners - Scott Stilkenboom and Ursula Delaney have been in the industry for many years, having worked at and managed other kennel facilities. It had been a long-standing dream of theirs to open their own kennel, taking the lessons learned and a sense of duty toward the pets and opening The K9 Inn in Clarkesville, Ga.

The mission: To provide better care in a low stress environment pet resort with a lower than average capacity, featuring premium suites that go far beyond a kennel and a food bowl for your beloved furry family members. We strive to let the dogs socialize in play groups during the day and sleep soundly through the night. We provide professional grooming services on site with high quality tools, equipment and above all- love and patience!

The pet suites (NEW July '24) are spacious, well air conditioned and are outfitted cots and blankets or beds. There are TVs playing doggie programming, frequent attention by well trained staff and video monitoring. 

We feed high quality 'Instinct lamb Formula' or feed what is provided by pet parents. 

Our staff is professional, well trained and has a combined experience of 25 years!

We operate under our motto: 'A kinder approach to boarding, grooming and daycare' TM
