Welcome to 4Paws Country Kennels: a place built from the heart, created by a Veteran and family who wanted to offer something better for local pet parents. We know how stressful it can be to leave your pets behind, which is exactly why we created a boarding experience that feels safe, personal, and genuinely fun for every dog and cat who visits us.
After years of living with and loving animals of all kinds, we realized Colorado Springs needed a place where pets weren’t just “boarded” but welcomed, understood, and treated like family. So we opened 4Paws Country Kennels right here on our own property, just minutes from the Colorado Springs Airport and close to I-25 for easy access.
Today, our 1-acre property gives pets room to run, sniff, explore, splash, and enjoy their own vacation. Whether they’re here for a single day or an extended stay, we’re dedicated to making every moment feel fun, safe, and stress-free.
We’re not a big corporate facility. We’re real people who care deeply about animals, community, and creating a space where pets can relax, play, and feel loved while their humans are away.
When your pet stays with us, you’re trusting us with a member of your family. We take that very seriously.

It's his favorite place on earth and he is so so loved by Karen and Stephanie. Finding them was life-changing and has made Ashers life better and us with having a place that we can always count on. I can't recommend this place enough❤️Posted on Cheryl InghamTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My Doberman has been going to 4Paws Country Kennel for a couple of years now to what we call “camp”. He absolutely loves going there!!! I get about a mile away and Hero starts whining and it gets louder the closer we get. The owners are very caring and great with the dogs. There is so much do there that my guy comes home and is ready for a night of relaxing. Exercised to the max. If you’re looking for a place for day camp or needing to kennel your fur kid…4Paws is the best choice!Posted on Mark DoughtyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The best care for our dogs. Rocky and Willow love going there. Would give them more stars if I could!Posted on Andrea BierTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Milo and Cooper absolutely light up whenever we pull into 4 Paws Country Kennels, and it’s easy to see why. They are genuinely loved from the moment they walk through the door. Karen and Stephanie don’t just care for dogs; they treat them like family, remembering every little quirk and giving them all the attention, cuddles, and belly rubs they could ever want. Over time, Milo and Cooper have made so many doggie friends and come home wagging, happy, and full of stories (even if they only tell them in tail wags!). Life can be unpredictable, but Karen and Stephanie are always patient and flexible with my ever-changing schedule, making drop-offs and pickups completely stress-free. Their pricing is more than fair for the love, care, and peace of mind they provide. Knowing our pups are safe, happy, and truly cherished makes our hearts so full—we feel so lucky to have found such a special place.Posted on Patrisha FayeTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Our pup absolutely adores the owners here. We have never felt so comfortable dropping off our baby and knowing he’s having a blast! They take care of him like their own and can text pictures if requested. They’re a family and veteran owned business with a huge yard and many amenities for the dogs. All we drop off is food and he’s good to go, he sleeps for so long too when we pick our baby up because he’s so worn out from running around and having fun. Their prices are very fair too compared to other boarding options in the Springs area! ABSOLUTELY recommend for those that want to feel comfortable with their dog enjoying their time while you’re away, without the worries of them being locked in cages most of the time. Oh and they have daycare too!Posted on Rita WarnerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. THIS IS THE PLACE to go for excellent dog daycare! We have been to several over the years and truly appreciate the small, family owned love that is provided to our dog! She goes twice a week and always comes home exhausted. Our dog enjoys being outside with grass which you do not find at other daycares. They aren't stuck in a room all day, they rotate through 3 different areas to play in. One area even has a dog pool which my dog loves in the summer! Don't look any further for an amazing dog daycare! This is it! We love 4 Paws Country Kennels!
