Dog Boarding Near Kowdiar — Neolokam Cage-Free Farm
Kowdiar is one of Trivandrum's most established residential areas. If you own a dog here and want an open-land boarding facility — not a city kennel — Neolokam is 23 km south of Kowdiar. Real cage-free farmland, personalised meals, and a team that treats your dog like family.
What Cage-Free Really Means at Neolokam
Kowdiar dog owners are typically experienced pet parents who research their options carefully. When most facilities use the term "cage-free" loosely, Neolokam makes it literal — 1.5 acres of farmland, no concrete runs, no cages of any kind.

How Boarding Works — 3 Steps
Simple, transparent process. No surprises.
Trial Visit (Mandatory)
Bring your dog between 6–9 AM. We assess behaviour, energy level, and social compatibility. No boarding without this step.
Assessment & Grouping
Based on the trial, we place your dog in the right group — Saints (calm), Fireballs (high energy), or Stars (sensitive). Correct grouping is safety.
Book & Board
Once cleared, book your boarding days via WhatsApp or call. Drop-off and pickup: 6–9 AM daily. Daily updates throughout the stay.
