DOG BOARDING NEAR ANDOVER, MN
Dog boarding near Andover, MN. What most local facilities can’t match.
Andover has Anoka County boarding options nearby. But 24/7 awake overnight staff, complimentary daycare with every boarding stay, and a certified behavior specialist on staff are things most local facilities don’t offer. Country Pup Kennel is about 45 minutes north on Hwy 169 — and worth the drive.

WHY ANDOVER FAMILIES CHOOSE CPK
Andover has good options. Here’s what makes CPK worth the drive.
Andover has access to boarding options in the Anoka County area with solid reputations. They’re worth considering. But 24/7 awake overnight staff — someone actively on site all night, not a motion sensor — is something most facilities in the area don’t offer. Neither is complimentary full-day daycare included with every boarding stay. Or a negative pressure isolation room. Or Sarah Bostock on staff.
Country Pup Kennel is about 45 minutes away — and for Andover families who’ve made the drive, it becomes the only option they’ll consider.
24/7 Awake Staff
Someone is always here. Always active. Always monitoring. Your dog is never alone at night — not in a locked building with a motion sensor, but with real people on site all night every night. Most boarding facilities in the Andover area don’t offer this. CPK does.
Complimentary Daycare Included
Every boarding stay includes full-day daycare at no extra charge. Your dog isn’t sitting in a kennel waiting for you to come back. They’re playing, socializing, and having a genuinely great day — included because that’s the right way to board a dog.

Negative Pressure Isolation Room
A medical-grade isolation room for any dog showing signs of illness. Most boarding facilities in the Andover area don’t have one. CPK built one because your dog’s health matters.

WHAT FAMILIES SAY
Don’t take our word for it.
★★★★★
The owner of Country Pup Kennel gave us a full tour and seems like someone who really cares about the animals’ comfort. We live in Minneapolis, but we feel the drive is worth it to make sure he is happy and well taken care of. Plus the prices were reasonable, and they include play time in the base price which I really liked. Highly recommend.”

★★★★★
“I have toured several kennels and have not found any that I have felt comfortable with. I took Lola in for a meet and greet at Country Pup and was instantly sold. Their facility is so clean. It has a very calm feeling. Hands down better than any other place I have seen.”
