FROM ELK RIVER
20 minutes for your dog to have their best day? Easy choice.
Twenty minutes is shorter than most people’s daily commute — and it’s the difference between a cramped indoor daycare room and real indoor and outdoor play yards spread across our 35-acre property. Most in-town options just can’t offer that kind of space, no matter how close they are.
Plenty of Elk River families make the drive up Hwy 169 and stack it with a grooming appointment, a training session, or a stop in our retail shop — so the trip pays for itself more than once. Ask around; a lot of your neighbors already make the drive, and most say it stopped feeling like a drive after the first visit.
WHY CPK DAYCARE
Not just supervised. Actually cared for.
A lot of daycares keep dogs safe. CPK keeps dogs happy. Our staff is made up of former and current veterinary technicians and people who genuinely love dogs — not just employees watching a clock. Your dog gets matched into a playgroup by size, age, and temperament so every day is structured around what works for them.
Elk River clients are typically here in about 20 minutes. Many combine daycare with grooming or boarding for added convenience.

From dogs who can’t wait to come back
“Sam and Mark are amazing, they offer an amazing experience for our pup! We trust them 1000% with our dog. The staff is amazing and the place is beautiful! Our dog can’t wait to be there every single day!”
“We are so happy we found Country Pup Kennel for our little guy for doggy daycare. He gets so excited to go and that makes my heart so full knowing he’s being well taken care of and loves playing with the other pups. I was so nervous bringing him somewhere being he’s our first fur baby, but when we did our meet and greet it felt so right.”
“My dog Linus goes here for daycare and has done socialization class with Sarah the trainer. We love it. They have been very understanding and willing to work with Linus who is a rescue and has some different reactivity issues in some situations.”
“This place came highly recommended by friends, and I am now understanding why! They have clean facilities, great services and excellent communication. Being a new dog owner, I have questions! They are always helpful!”
