Testimonials

On 5/15/2025 Kristy Lynn Burnside Heath had this to say:
My Lola had a long stay. She did ok. She is very sweet but anxious at times. I know they took care of her. They were very sweet. The place is pretty big.

On 5/12/2025 Patricia L Dornacker had this to say:
We have been taking our family dogs for boarding at Raccoon River Kennels for 15 years. Katy had an excellent staff. Our dog is happy to arrive and is happy and healthy when we pick him up. My husband and I can travel confidently knowing our puppy is in good hands.

On 4/28/2025 Karly O'Connor-Pelz had this to say:
We were referred here by family members for our two dogs who had never been boarded before. One dog is friendly and social and the other is very anxious. Racoon River sent us updates and photos the whole long weekend and seemed like they really cared about our dogs and their well being, both emotional and physical. I can’t recommend this kennel enough! We will be back for boarding and daycare in the future.
