Dog Boarding in Kars, Ottawa

Looking for dog boarding near Kars? You won't find anything closer — Kennel Club Boarding is about 5 minutes from Kars along Rideau Valley Drive, offering overnight and extended boarding right here in North Gower.

Right Next Door

Kars and North Gower are neighbours on the Rideau, so for Kars dogs we're as local as boarding gets. Many of our Kars regulars know the place so well they're keen to get out of the car at drop-off — which makes leaving for a trip a great deal easier. A few minutes up the road, a familiar property, and a dog that's happy to be there.

A Stay Shaped Around Your Dog

We board dogs of every age, size, and temperament. Social dogs join group play; anxious, senior, or first-time guests get a quieter routine and introductions at their own pace. We're one of the few facilities in the area that also takes dogs who don't do well with others, with physically separate outdoor time — and we handle bite-risk boarding with dedicated, separate supervision.

What Your Dog Gets While Boarding

Each boarding dog has a clean, temperature-controlled kennel and Kuranda bed, joins supervised play matched to temperament, and is fed on their usual schedule with fresh water always available. Daily photo updates are there by email for owners who like to keep tabs from the road.

The Drive to Our Door

Kars is just up the road, with Kars village and the Rideau River all within reach. From the closest streets it's as little as 5 minutes via Rideau Valley Drive.

Boarding Pricing

Boarding starts at $55/night for a dog that plays well with others, $70/night for dogs needing one-on-one attention or special care, and $100/night for bite-risk dogs. Multi-dog families get a discount. Check rates and dates on our boarding booking page.
