Dog Boarding in Denver
A great fit for dogs who do best outside of traditional boarding facilities.
At Calvert Dog Training, boarding is designed to feel like a home—not a facility.
At Elizabeth’s home, your dog receives focused care and attention in a comfortable, familiar setting. We host a maximum of three dogs at a time, allowing each dog space to settle in, decompress, and feel at ease.

Want to Add Training During Boarding?
Many clients searching for board and train in Denver are looking for a way to make progress while they’re away.
We offer a more flexible option.
You can add custom training sessions during your dog’s stay —focused on real-world skills, confidence, and behavior.
A Thoughtful Start for New Clients
We take the time to make sure this is the right fit for your dog.
New clients begin with:
- a complementary meet and greet at Elizabeth’s home
- followed by a 1–2 night trial stay for those dogs who might need it.
This allows your dog to get comfortable in the space before a longer visit.
What Your Dog’s Stay Looks Like
Each stay is tailored to your dog, but typically includes:
- two daily outings (walks, play, or local adventures)
- enrichment like Kongs, Toppls, and lick mats
- rest and decompression time
- optional social time (when appropriate)
We also maintain your home routines and expectations—whether that means leash manners, furniture rules, or snuggling on the couch.
Updates During Their Stay
We share photos and videos throughout your dog’s stay via a private drive so you can follow along.

Safety and Trust You Can Count On

Common Questions
Do you take intact dogs?
Sometimes. Depending on dates and fit, intact dogs may need to board solo.
Where do dogs sleep?
Wherever they’re most comfortable—crate, floor, or bed (if that’s their routine at home).
Do you use crates?
If your dog is crate-trained, we’ll follow that routine. Dogs who cannot safely free-roam will need to be crate-trained.
How long are dogs left alone?
No more than four hours at a time.
Do you offer private boarding?
Yes—both Exclusive and Single-Family options are available.
Optional Add-On Services
You can enhance your dog’s stay with:
- bathing and grooming
- extended hikes and outings
- additional daily adventures
- one-on-one training sessions
