At Indian Creek Kennel, we believe pets are family — and when they stay with us, they become part of ours. Our goal is to provide a safe, comfortable, and loving environment where your pet feels right at home while you’re away.
Whether they’re here for overnight boarding or a fun day of doggy daycare, every pet receives plenty of attention, care, and time to play, relax, and be themselves. We take pride in getting to know each dog’s personality so we can make their stay as happy and stress-free as possible.
When your pet stays with us, they’re not just another guest — they’re part of the Indian Creek Kennel family.

About Indian Creek Kennel
Family-Owned and Operated
Indian Creek Kennel has been a trusted name in pet boarding and grooming in Carbondale for decades, and since 2014, it’s been our family’s honor to carry on that tradition. But our story with Indian Creek started well before then.
We’re the Britton family — Adam, Karen, Penny, and Milo — and our connection to the kennel goes back to 2002, when Adam and Karen were students at SIU and began working at Indian Creek Kennel during college. Originally from the northwest suburbs of Chicago, we were high school sweethearts who moved to Southern Illinois for school and ended up staying, like many do.
In 2014, we had the opportunity to purchase the business. That year was a whirlwind: we moved into the house in August, took over the kennel in September, and welcomed our daughter in October. Since then, it’s been a true family effort — from daily pet care to long-term planning and everything in between.
Outside of the kennel, we spend our time growing food, raising animals, supporting our kids in their activities, and staying involved in the local community.
This past fall marked 11 years in business for us, and we’re proud to continue serving Southern Illinois pet owners. We appreciate everyone who’s supported us over the years — whether you’re a longtime client or new to the kennel, we look forward to caring for your pets like we always have!
