Dog Boarding & Puppy Training near Ozark, MO
Ozark families have an easy route to us: north on US-65, east on US-60, and you're in Rogersville in under half an hour. It's a drive plenty of Christian County pet parents already make, whether they're dropping off before a family vacation or bringing a brand-new puppy to class.
Once you're here, your dog gets supervised playgroups matched by size and temperament, a suite or kennel to rest in, and staff who'll happily tell you all about their day at pickup.

Why Ozark pet parents make the drive
Puppies welcome
Once your puppy has had their vaccinations, they can join daycare, board with us, or start Puppy Class while they're still learning how the world works.
Training that includes you
Our training is led by Standing Obeytion Dog Training, and every program ends with us showing you what your dog learned so it sticks at home.
More done per trip
Add an exit bath to a boarding stay, or a frozen enrichment bowl, so one drive covers a lot more than a place to sleep.
“I am so happy with Rick and Howliday Pet Resort. My puppy, Leo, went for a week of training and she learned so much and had a great time. Rick did amazing with her and took the time to show me the training afterwards.”
