Critter Cottage
About Critter Cottage in Baxter, TN
Critter Cottage in Baxter, TN is a small animal boarding and pet care facility serving the eastern Putnam County community. The 'cottage' name fits - this is a smaller, more intimate operation where your pet isn't just a cage number in a large kennel system. Dogs and cats that board here get individual attention and a calmer environment than commercial kennels can typically offer. For Baxter and White Oak residents who want peace of mind when they travel, Critter Cottage provides the kind of personalized care that makes leaving your pet behind a little easier. It's also convenient for those who live on the Algood–Baxter corridor and don't want to drive into Cookeville proper for boarding.
