The Happy Hound Hotel is a family owned and operated pet
boarding kennel situated on a twenty acre farm in Rock Creek, Minnesota. We are conveniently located just
off of Interstate 35 fifty miles north of the Twin Cities and

Owners Glen and Christine Heintz live onsite. As pet owners and lovers ourselves, we know how hard it is
to be separated from your beloved pet. Our goal is to provide exceptional care for your pet and make their
stay with us enjoyable. Rest assured that your pet will be comfortable, safe and out to play while you’re away.
