About

Our friendly and knowledgeable team loves dogs and will do everything we can to make sure they have an amazing time when they stay the Weekend at Ernie's.

Owner Ernie & his best buddy Ralph




For years I tried to find the perfect place to board my pet Ralph while I traveled for work. When I decided business travel was no longer for me I realized it was the perfect opportunity to give dogs a perfect place to stay when their owners were away.

5 years ago I opened Weekend at Ernie's. I want every dog who comes here to have an amazing experience. To do that I needed to make sure they were happy and healthy. My hard work paid off and today we have expanded to comfortably sleep 100 dogs with 33 staff members making sure everyone gets their fair share of ear scratches, treats, and care.


When your pet stays at my facility, I personally guarantee they will receive the following:

  • Excellent care and attention to their needs
  • Regular interaction and comfortable sleeping arrangements
  • Staff members I have personally vetted (pun intended) to ensure your pet has the best care from experienced animal trainers, as well as a dedicated onsite veterinarian.
