Up US-65, over on US-60

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.”
