Kennel Club Of Southern California Inc.

Kennel Club Of Southern California Inc., a for-profit corporation headquartered in Los Angeles, California, delivers commercial kennel boarding and animal-care services to federal law-enforcement agencies as a prime contractor under the Total Small Business set-aside. The vendor operates exclusively as a prime across nine awards spanning two customer agencies, with no subcontractor activity. Work is concentrated in NAICS 812910 (Pet Care, except Veterinary) and PSC R416 (Support-Professional: Veterinary/Animal Care).

Customer concentration is acute. The Department of Homeland Security's Customs and Border Protection accounts for five awards and the full $5.3 million combined potential value (100% of potential dollars, 56% of award count), while the Department of Agriculture's Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service holds three awards with undisclosed potential value. Kennel Club has served these two agencies intermittently over a two-decade window, with sporadic award activity (two awards in 2002, one in 2015, one in 2020, and two in 2025–2026) until recent intensification. The May 1, 2026 actions mark a recompete cycle: CBP awarded a single-award indefinite-delivery contract with a $1.97 million ceiling running through April 30, 2029, paired with a delivery order adding $1.091 million in funds through April 30, 2027.

The IDC and its associated delivery order are the vendor's active vehicle footprint. The indefinite-delivery contract specifies secure indoor kenneling for CBP-owned canines in the Los Angeles/Long Beach corridor, with capacity for 25–35 animals concurrently and surge capability for up to 7 additional animals. Required services include daily feeding and fresh water, exercise, sanitation, quarantine and isolation capabilities, vaccination record maintenance, medication administration, incident reporting, and emergency veterinary coordination. On-site staffing runs 6:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. daily, with 24/7 access and same-day and after-hours intake capability. Infrastructure must meet Animal Welfare Act standards, CBP's National Canine Enforcement Handbook, and include proper flooring, ventilation, temperature control, video surveillance, controlled access, and backup power. A September 2025 purchase order for $193,920 covered kenneling for LA/Long Beach and LAX, including funds to address Americans with Disabilities Act accommodations. One award (combined potential value $1.091 million) reaches ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, presenting recompete risk or opportunity for the vendor and competitors respectively.

Service Contract Inventory data shows minimal federal service-contract activity above the $150,000 reporting threshold — $219 thousand invoiced in FY2022 across 1.4 FTEs, with zero SCI-reportable invoicing in FY2023 and FY2024. This reflects the vendor's concentration on animal-care service delivery (largely operational labor bundled in fixed-price kenneling contracts) rather than professional-services billing. No subcontractors appear in the source data; the vendor builds all kennel operations and animal-care delivery internally.
