My name is Gina Vesco, welcome to the Shores Kennels
web site.
Here you will find ALL the information you need to make an informed decision about boarding your pet. It may be a little verbose but I think you will learn that this was not something I just decided to make a career of when other jobs didn't work out. This has been a lifelong dream come true at a very very young age.
Shores Kennels is your first not your last resort in pet care.
There is a unique story associated with how I ended up doing what I love. This was my first job. I started working here in 1974 at the age of 15. I fell in love with this place and I had always told the previous owner
"If you ever sell this place let me know". Well 13 years later, she remembered, and one day told me that she was ready to retire.
I took the leap and have been the owner and operator of our little pet resort, since 1986.
At 51 years old I realize how lucky I had been to have that opportunity back then which resulted in my doing what I love for 35 years. Not many people can say that about their jobs.
My home is located on the same grounds as the kennel which enables me to be only a few steps from my guests.
That means... I don't go home at the end of the day,
I am at home.
On this web site you will find our rates and you may also go on a virtual tour of our pet accommodations. I hope by reading through it you will get a sense of the dedication that we have toward providing your family member with the best experience we possibly can at a reasonable cost.

We do not discriminate against 'bully breeds', unaltered pets, dogs of advanced age, or those who require special needs like medications. Your pet will NOT have to submit to a 'personality test'. We know, from nearly four decades of experience and handling thousands of dogs how they think... we have seen every temperament type there is. We can handle your pet, even those with personality quirks. We have never 'uninvited' a guest.
We are one of the original pet boarding facilities in the county and amongst the most professional and experienced in handling all breeds of dogs in all stages of their life. From puppies to geriatric guests and all those in between.
