HISTORY
The fun began with Dawn Niebuhr’s life-long dream of owning every breed of dog & cat and mixed breeds too! A true animal lover! The ideal location was found in 1990 in the scenic hills on the Rensselaer Plateau, along the Poestenkill Creek in Poestenkill, NY just 20 minutes north east of Troy. Creekside Kennel Ltd provides pet owners with a variety of services including dog boarding, doggie daycare, grooming and obedience training.
In just five years Creekside was in such high demand an expansion of the facility became necessary and Camp Creekside grew from 13 indoor/outdoor kennel runs to 30! All heated, covered, and shaded for your pets comfort. Our most recent update includes heated floors in a portion of the dog boarding area. Additionally, specialized cat boarding condos are offered away from the bustle of activity on the second floor for our feline guests comfort and security. In the summer of 2000 a man-made swimming pond was added to the serene surroundings for our water-loving doggie boarders for their fun and activity during those hot summer months turning Creekside Kennel into a first class fun packed dog camp our clients love!
