INDIAN TRAIL, NC – Indian Trail pets are in for a treat with a unique pet care experience coming back to town—

Hounds Town USA, the daycare and boarding concept where everything they do is for the dogs, announced today the reopening of its location in Indian Trail, which is situated at its original address at 2613 Hayes Road. The Hounds Town location is now owned and operated by Gerry and Stephanie Romanelli and is expected to reopen on March 25.

“We’ve been animal lovers all our lives, and wholeheartedly believe in the Hounds Town mission,” said Gerry Romanelli. “Not only does Hounds Town allow us to pursue our passions of business ownership, but it also allows us to provide a much-needed service to our community and an incredibly fun and safe environment for their pets. We’re very excited to reopen this beloved concept in Indian Trail and look forward to welcoming back the community with open arms.”

Before joining the Hounds Town family, Stephanie was a pediatric oncology nurse for over 20 years, while Gerry spent over 35 years building an impressive career in logistics. Within both their personal and professional lives, the Romanelli’s have a longstanding commitment to giving back to their community, and have spent years volunteering at local animal shelters and rescue centers. In fact, the husband-and-wife duo regularly foster dogs and help them find their forever homes. They plan to continue their charitable efforts as Hounds Town owners.

“Gerry and Stephanie are true examples of what Hounds Town represents,” said Jackie Bondanza, CEO of Hounds Town. “They embody our slogan, ‘we do it for the dogs’ to a T, and witnessing their excitement to make a difference in the Indian Trail community is inspiring. We are proud to have owners like the Romanelli’s representing our brand, and we look forward to all their future successes with Hounds Town.”
