At Shertom Kennels we're "dog crazy" and "crazy about dogs."

Located on 13 acres just north of Leander, with plenty of big trees, a creek and pond and large grassy fields just made for running you can offer your dog a vacation filled with fun and country serenity.

We hope everyone had a great Summer with your travels and activities. Now it’s time to look forward to the upcoming holidays in the Fall. Don’t let time slip away before booking your pets for the holiday only to find out there is no space available. Even if you don’t have any dates, you can still lock in your space and then change the dates later to what you want when you know. You can also cancel preferably at least 1 to 2 weeks before your dates.

Here are the dates for the holidays:

November 27 is Thanksgiving Day Thursday and we will also be closed on November 28, Friday.

December 25 is a Thursday this year and we will close at noon on December 24th and reopen on December 26th this year.

January 1 is also a Thursday and we will be closed on this date. On December 31, we will close at noon and reopen on January 2.

Get your dates booked now as it is not too early. We already have several bookings.

EFFECTIVELY IMMEDIATELY: Shertom Kennels no longer requires the Bordetella vaccine but is still highly recommended to vaccinate your dog.

NOTE ON BORDETELLA: When getting the Bordetella for your dog, please vaccinate your pet at least 2 weeks or more prior to your dog arriving at the kennel unless your vet uses a killed Bordetella virus. If the killed virus is used, the waiting period would be 5 days or 72 hours to build up titer levels before bringing your dog into the kennel. The live virus can shed out to the other dogs in the kennel and your dog and the kennel dogs can be susceptible to kennel cough.

Please bring or send proof of vaccination.
