What Cage-Free Really Means at Neolokam

Most places call themselves cage-free but still confine dogs in small rooms or runs. At Neolokam, cage-free means 1.5 acres of open agricultural land — soil under paws, trees overhead, water to swim in, trails to trek.

It is excellent. You can leave ur loved lil cutie here and go. They are treated like their own pets. They taken care of well. They send us videos and keep us updated everyday. My Ace didnt want to come home and was crying while travelling home because she didnt want to leave her friends. It's heaven for them.

We've been boarding our beagle Max at NEOLOKAM, and I honestly couldn't be happier with the experience. The place is just amazing — the pups are genuinely cared for like babies, with so much attention, warmth, and understanding. What I love most is how relaxed and happy they are here. Max gets to socialise, play, and be himself, and he never feels stressed even when he's away from us for longer days. In fact, he's always delighted to go there — which says everything. The large private open plot for walks and fun time is a huge plus. It gives the dogs space to run, explore, and burn off energy in a safe and natural environment. A special mention to Shiva, who runs the place — he really understands dogs. He knows their temperaments well, segregates breeds appropriately when needed, and you can clearly see that he is genuinely passionate about what he does. That makes a huge difference. The biggest reassurance for me as a pet parent is that I always feel Max is happy, comfortable, and in very good hands at NEOLOKAM. That peace of mind is priceless. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a loving, safe, and joyful boarding experience for their dog in Trivandrum.

Shiv was very responsive to all our concerns. Also, he made sure to provide daily video updates very promptly. Pick up and drop facility is also great. I would say it is a safe place to leave your dog or puppy for a few days. Through Neo Lokam, my Sayuri had an opportunity to socialise with many other dogs of different temperament and breed. I am sure she is all the more better for it.

My pets Rocky and Ruby stayed Neolokam thrice. And they were happy and relaxed. If we have to travel anywhere we can trustly leave our pets there. Neolokam is safe, secure and happy place for our loved ones. Siva bro is really helpful and always there with their videos and photos. I highly recommend Neolokam for dog boardings.

Neolokam Member, Trivandrum

I boarded my three dogs at Neolokam, under Siva's care, for six months and was very happy with the care they received. The staff was attentive and made sure all of my dogs' needs were met, including feeding and following their routines. My dogs came home happy and healthy, and I could tell they enjoyed their time there. The facility had plenty of space for them to run around and play, and I appreciated that they were allowed to socialise with other dogs. I would definitely recommend Neolokam to anyone looking for a safe and fun place to board their furry friends. You can rest assured that they are in safe hands- be it for a short stay or for longer stays.
