ABOUT US

About
  •  About Us
  • My name is Valentina DaCosta & together with my husband Tim Ziegler, run a luxury, cats only, boarding kennel (since 2006).  We see to it that every guest feels loved & tended to while our clients are away on vacation or business. We love what we do & it shows... our guests go home relaxed & pampered! Please check out our video tours to get a feel for space & accommodations.  We live on premisis for full time care!

    Check out our photos of favorable mentions from the media, including WTNH8 news, Cat Fancy Magazine, The New Haven Register, CT Magazine & the New Haven Advocate.

WHAT DOES CLOSED MEAN? (with the exception of our January vacation)  When 'closed' we are still here tending to our guests. Because we are a small family business, down time is an important component to not only serving our guests, but for ourselves. We are absolutely firm on days/times to prevent chaos & burnout. We do realize that this may sometimes be unpopular with new clients & we thank you for your understanding & for respecting our family time. These rules make our personalized services possible. We are amenable to working with you to arrange pick up with a friend or relative of yours should you be unable to make our hours.
