Pup Paradise

Pup Paradise is a dog boarding and daycare resort in Paragould, Arkansas, at 1395 US 412 Bypass Suite A. The kennel has operated since January 2019 and moved into a new facility in April 2024. Every overnight stay includes daycare during the day, so boarding dogs follow the same play-and-rest routine as the weekday crowd.

Services and amenities

• Overnight boarding in private, climate-controlled suites with raised cots
• Weekday dog daycare with structured Littles and Bigs play groups
• Solo play rotations for dogs who do not join group play
• Enrichment sessions using puzzle toys, snuffle mats, a ball pit, agility, and fetch
• Exit baths, filled Kongs, lick mats, and pup cups as add-ons

How the day is structured

Dogs are not left in all-day play. Staff run a rest and play rotation, sorting group dogs first into Bigs and Littles, then into smaller groups by size, age, and play style. Trained pack leaders supervise every group.

Three outdoor play yards with covered, shaded areas connect to indoor play space, and climbing structures give dogs something to do besides chase each other. Sprinklers and pools come out in warmer months. Separate boarding rooms for Bigs and Littles each open onto their own play yard, which keeps the trip from room to grass short.

Practical details

Boarding runs $40 per night, $33 for each additional dog from the same family, with a $5 per night surcharge on peak dates. Pre-booked daycare is $22 per day and walk-ins are $30, with prepaid credit packages available. Medication is given at no extra charge, though injectables are not administered, and staff handle special food prep with two to three feedings a day. Owners get daily text and picture updates.

New dogs start with an evaluation day, vaccination records are required, and booking is done online. Weekday daycare drop-off runs 6:00 to 9:30 AM, with pickup from 3:00 to 6:30 PM. Saturday and Sunday windows are shorter, and the office takes calls and texts at 870-476-4367.
