DOG BOARDING NEAR ANOKA, MN
Dog boarding near Anoka, MN. What most local facilities can’t match.
Anoka has established boarding options with solid reputations. But 24/7 awake overnight staff, complimentary daycare with every boarding stay, 35 acres, and a certified behavior specialist on staff are things most local facilities simply don’t offer. Country Pup Kennel is about 30 minutes north on Hwy 169 — and worth the drive.

WHY ANOKA FAMILIES CHOOSE CPK
Anoka has options. Here’s what makes CPK different.
Anoka has established boarding facilities with strong 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 Anoka area don’t advertise. Neither is complimentary full-day daycare included with every boarding stay at no extra charge. Or a medical-grade negative pressure isolation room. Or certified trainer Sarah Bostock on staff.
CPK is north on Hwy 169. For 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 Anoka 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.
Vet Clinic Partnership
Zimmerman Clinic, Zimmvet, available on call
Negative Pressure Isolation Room
A medical-grade isolation room for any dog showing signs of illness. Most boarding facilities in the Anoka area don’t have one. CPK built one because your dog’s health matters.

★★★★★
“My two puppies just spent 10 days at Country Pup Kennel and I would not bring my dogs anywhere else. Both dogs came home happy, healthy and did not want to leave when I came to pick them up. The drive from Minneapolis was super easy.”

★★★★★
“Absolutely amazing facility! Definitely need to come see for yourself because we started with a tour, and that sold us instantly. It’s so clean and the owners are hands on. So great to see them care so much about the health and safety of our dogs while we are gone.”
