About

Village Sentry Pet Care is a family-owned business, that prioritizes our animals' well-beings. By having our home on the same property as our facility, we stay hands-on with every aspect of our operation 24/7.



We invite you to tour our facility anytime during our normal business hours, although, to insure ample time for your tour, scheduled appointments are available and encouraged.

Moving to Hollis in 1972, the Ciampa family adored animals, and their family grew as they adopted many dogs, cats, and horses. Pat Ciampa, the mother of the current owner Michele Kuzmich, loved larger bred animals. She discovered Great Danes and knew instantly that this dog breed was perfect for her. The loving mother began to breed Great Dane pups of her own. As this dog breed requires particular care, Village Sentry Kennel was founded in 1976.



Now, nearly four decades later, we don’t consider ourselves a kennel, but your pet's home away from home. The same concept is still practiced as it was by Pat Ciampa: when you go away or out of town, we fulfill your beloved companions’ needs seven days a week, 365 days a year.

Moving back to Hollis in 2007 from New York, Michele Kuzmich, daughter of Pat Ciampa, wanted to reconnect with the business that had such a tremendous impact on her life while growing up. She and her husband Mark took ownership of Village Sentry Pet Care, taking a fresh approach pet-care to keep up with the ever-changing needs of pet-owners. One of their new additions to the business is the Doggie Daycare program. It's a wonderful addition for working owners as their pets enjoy an interactive and social day full of activities, even while their owners are away.
