The Dogs Den

The Dogs Den provides cage-free dog boarding and dog daycare in Stewartville, MN, from an in-home setup at 5427 105th St SW. Dogs board in a home rather than a kennel building, on a property in a quiet country setting with several large fenced play areas and multiple pools.

What The Dogs Den offers

Boarding and daycare are the main services, and grooming and training are available too. Play happens in small groups, which keeps each dog from getting lost in a crowd and makes socializing easier. Indoor space is climate controlled, and the day runs on regular feeding times with hourly potty checks.

• Cage-free, in-home boarding in a country setting
• Daycare built around small group play
• Grooming and training
• Climate-controlled indoor space, fenced outdoor yards, and pools
• Medication administration

How owners keep tabs during a stay

Photos and videos go up on the kennel's Facebook page daily, so an owner who is out of town can watch their dog play instead of guessing how the week is going. That daily posting habit, paired with the small-group structure, is what the operation is built around. Owners who want a look at the property before committing can reach the kennel directly to arrange it.

Booking, rates, and requirements

Booking is handled online through the kennel's website. Rates published there run from $20 to $40 per day, depending on the service. Proof of vaccination is required before a dog stays. Questions can go to 507-421-9439 or atthedogsden@gmail.com, and the property sits at 5427 105th St SW in Stewartville.
