DOG BOARDING NEAR BUFFALO, MN
Dog boarding near Buffalo, MN. A level of care most local facilities can’t match.
Buffalo has boarding options. But 24/7 awake overnight staff, complimentary daycare with every boarding stay, and a reputation families trust enough to drive 35 minutes for — those are things most local facilities simply don’t offer. Country Pup Kennel is about 35 minutes away in Princeton, and worth every minute.

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 Buffalo 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.
A Reputation Buffalo Families Trust
You don’t have to take the drive on faith. 89+ families have already made the trip from across the area and left 4.9-star reviews saying it was worth it — real reviews from real families, not just our word for it.
Negative Pressure Isolation Room
A medical-grade isolation room for any dog showing signs of illness. Most boarding facilities in the Buffalo area don’t have one. CPK built one because your dog’s health matters.

“Our dog spent the past week at Country Pup Kennel. He came home tired which tells us he had a great time. He was also clean and happy. It’s been so hot and humid, and it’s comforting to know the dogs can play both inside and outside and won’t be in a kennel all day. The staff there takes such good care of our pup, and we never have to feel guilty about leaving him.”
“Country Pup Kennel is the only place we will take our pup! Mark, Sam & the whole team genuinely care about your dogs. The facility is beautiful! So clean and so much for the dogs to do. Our Ranger boy has so much fun & we know he is safe and well taken care of. Very thankful we found them!”
“We looked at a few doggy daycare/boarding facilities in the area and we’re so happy to have found Country Pup Kennel! Our pup has boarded overnight there and it’s been great for his socializing and so fun to hear the workers say how good he did! You can tell everyone working there genuinely enjoy and care about the dogs.”
“I cannot say enough about this facility. The first thing I noticed when I walked in was I did not smell a thing. The facility was pristine! Our dog has medicine and prescription dog food and they handled it perfectly. What really sold us was our dog, who is super clingy, was having a hard time deciding if he wanted to go home or not!”
