Before moving to Murphy, we lived in central Florida where we spent our free time taking care of chickens and goats. Around this time, we also opened up a small pet boarding operation. We loved hearing from customers about how our level of care was a cut above what a typical kennel would provide.
Today, we are proud to be the owners of Kadillac Kennels, the premier pet boarding, daycare, and grooming facility in the tri-state area – a place where pets feel as if they are at Grandma’s house!
The mission of Kadillac Kennels is to provide each pet the same love, attention, and care that they receive at home, from the moment they arrive at the facility until they leave.
Our values are to responsibly care for each pet as if they were our own and to offer peace and security to the pet owner.
Kadillac Kennels envisions a clean, vibrant, fun facility where no anxiety is felt during the stay by either the pet or the pet owner. We want our visitors to feel as if they are staying at Grandma’s house.
Caitlyn (Cat) has had previous experience with dogs and cats working at a local humane society and caring for the fur babies. Here at Kadillac Kennels, she spends quality outside time with the babies as well as preparing their evening meal. Caitlyn prepares the food and when giving them their evening meal, always makes the babies feel at home by giving them a little love pat on the head. Caitlyn has said, "I have been passionate about working with animals my entire life. I'm beyond grateful to be able to work with our lovely local's fur babies now. I have only been at Kadillac for about a month but I look forward to a great future here!"
After retiring from 30 years with Cherokee County Schools, Kathy's wish was to work with 4-legged babies. Kathy has been working with Kadillac Kennels since June, 2021 and loves every minute of it! She is married to her childhood sweetheart, David. They have 3 grown children Erika, Lisa & Matthew and 2 grandsons Colter & Calum.
Kathy is always smiling when she is working as she loves the fur babies so much, you will generally see her carrying one or sitting in a suite getting some great bonding time with the babies.
