One road: US-60 east
Dog Boarding & Daycare near Republic, MO
Republic sits right on US-60, and so do we. Hop on the James River Freeway, keep heading east past Springfield, and in about 40 minutes you're at Howliday Pet Resort in Rogersville, where your dog gets supervised playgroups, a comfy suite or kennel, and a team that learns their name on day one.
Since it's a bit of a drive, Republic families tend to book us for the stays that matter: a week of vacation, a long work trip, or a Board & Train stay that sends your pup home with better manners. Every boarding stay includes all-day daycare, so your dog spends the day playing and heads to their room only for meals and sleep.

Why Republic pet parents make the drive
Worth the drive
All-day daycare is included with every boarding stay, so your dog isn't stuck in a kennel while you're away. They play, rest and play some more.
Playgroups that fit
Dogs are grouped by size and temperament, and our staff supervises every playgroup, whether your pup is a gentle giant or a pocket-sized zoomie machine.
Training while you travel
With Board & Train, our trainers work with your dog every day of the stay, then show you what they learned so it sticks at home.
“Brandon is amazing! Not only did he train my dog, but he took so much time to train me to implement everything he taught her. Very open communication throughout the training process. If you're thinking about putting your dog in training, do it — you won't regret it!”
