Overnight dog boarding serving Auburn, Opelika and the surrounding Lee County area.
When you leave town, your dog deserves more than a kennel. At RTN Dog Training and Boarding, our all-inclusive overnight boarding gives dogs in Auburn, Opelika, and Lee County a safe, structured, and comfortable place to stay — supervised by the same certified training team that works with them every day. No hidden fees. No cutting corners. Just consistent, professional care from a veteran-owned, family-run facility that treats every dog like family.
When you're away from home, you shouldn't have to wonder whether your dog is safe, comfortable and getting the attention they need. At RTN Dog Training & Boarding, our all-inclusive dog boarding is designed to give you peace of mind while giving your dog a structured, comfortable and engaging stay.
Our Auburn facility is climate-controlled year-round, with temperature and humidity monitoring throughout the building. Our staff is on-site 24/7, and your dog's regular care—including feeding, medication administration and daytime activities—is included in one straightforward boarding rate.
Unlike traditional boarding facilities where dogs may spend most of the day in their kennel, RTN gives dogs opportunities for structured activity, socialization, enrichment and individual attention throughout their stay.
We proudly serve families in Auburn, Opelika and surrounding Lee County communities.
Your dog stays in a clean, safe and comfortable space designed around their individual needs. Our facility is climate-controlled year-round, with temperature and humidity monitors throughout the building.
We maintain your dog's normal feeding schedule whenever possible. You can also provide your own food if your dog has dietary restrictions, allergies or specific food preferences.
We can accommodate specialty diets and other feeding requirements, including prescription diets when appropriate.
If your dog takes regular medication, medication administration is included at no additional charge.
Our staff is on-site 24/7, giving you additional peace of mind knowing someone is present to care for the dogs in our facility and respond if an issue arises.
This is one of your biggest differentiators.
All social dogs participate in RTN's structured daycare program during their boarding stay. Dogs are placed into appropriate groups based on their energy level and social needs.
Dogs that aren't comfortable or appropriate for group play aren't simply left alone. They receive one-on-one time with a staff member and additional outdoor run time when weather permits.
One boarding rate covers your dog's core care and activities. We don't nickel-and-dime you with separate charges for medication administration, daytime activities or basic care.
Dogs staying with RTN participate in structured activities during the day rather than simply spending the majority of their stay waiting in a kennel.
RTN isn't just a boarding facility. Our boarding program is operated alongside our professional dog training and structured daycare programs, giving our team a deeper understanding of canine behavior.
Not every dog enjoys group play, and we don't force it. Dogs that aren't appropriate for group daycare receive individual attention and alternative activities.
Our team is on-site around the clock, providing an additional level of supervision and peace of mind.
RTN was voted Best Pet Boarding in the Opelika-Auburn News Best of OA 2026, recognizing our boarding service among Auburn and Opelika-area businesses.
Every dog has different needs, and our goal is to make sure your dog's boarding experience is appropriate for their temperament and comfort level.
Social dogs can participate in our structured daycare program. Dogs that aren't comfortable in group settings receive individual staff attention and additional opportunities for exercise and outdoor time.
If your dog has significant behavioral, medical or special-care needs, please let us know before booking so we can determine whether RTN is the right fit and make appropriate arrangements.
Our boarding rates are all-inclusive, so your dog's standard care and daytime activities are included rather than being added as separate charges.
