Providing trusted pet boarding in Auburn, Opelika, and Lee County with climate-controlled comfort, flexible hours, and affordable rates that keep your furry family member safe and happy.
You need a safe place for your dog right now, not next week. Maybe a trip came up and boarding filled faster than you expected. Maybe your dog can’t stay home alone all day anymore. Or maybe you just don’t feel comfortable leaving them “anywhere” and hoping for the best.
Whatever brought you here, you want to know your dog will be safe, supervised, and comfortable—today. That’s exactly what we do.
We believe clear communication puts pet parents at ease. That's why we take time to understand your dog's unique needs and answer all your questions before their stay. You'll never feel pressured or rushed - we want you to feel completely confident about your pet's care. Our team keeps you informed and treats every conversation with the respect you and your furry family member deserve.
Dropping off your pet should be simple, not stressful. Our friendly staff makes the check-in process smooth and welcoming for both you and your dog. We respect your time with flexible hours including convenient Sunday pickup times from 8-8:30am and 4-5pm that work around your schedule. From the moment you arrive, you'll see why Auburn families trust us to make pet care hassle-free.
Every dog deserves the best care possible, and that's exactly what we deliver. Our experienced team pays attention to the little details that make your pet feel safe and loved. We take pride in maintaining our climate-controlled facility to the highest standards because your dog's comfort and safety come first. When you pick up your pet, you'll see the difference that genuine care and attention to detail makes.

Is your dog restless and destructive while you're at work? Our doggie daycare provides supervised play and socialization from 7am-6pm, Monday-Friday. Your pup will burn energy in our large outdoor play areas and come home happily tired. At $15/day with membership discounts, it's an affordable solution for active, well-behaved pets.

Does your dog need professional grooming but you're worried about the stress of going somewhere new? Our experienced groomers provide full-service grooming including baths, cuts, nail trims, and ear cleaning in a calm, caring environment. We take our time with each pet to ensure they feel comfortable and look their best.

Need a good cleaning without full grooming? Our "just baths" service provides a relaxing wash and blow dry to keep your pet fresh between grooming appointments. Perfect for active dogs who love getting dirty or pets with skin conditions needing regular bathing. Starting at $25, it's an easy way to keep your furry friend looking and smelling great.

Planning an extended vacation or business trip? Our long-term boarding provides consistent, loving care for extended stays with 15% off for 10+ days. Your pet maintains their routine with daily outdoor play, comfortable sleeping quarters, and the same caring staff throughout their stay. We make sure your dog feels at home until you return.

Is your dog's coat severely matted beyond regular brushing? Our shave down service safely removes problematic matting and overgrown fur that causes skin irritation. Perfect for rescue dogs, neglected coats, or medical issues, we handle shave downs with extra patience and care to ensure your pet feels comfortable throughout the process.

Stressed about pet care during busy holiday seasons? Our holiday boarding ensures your dog has a safe, comfortable place during Christmas, Thanksgiving, and peak travel times. Enjoy family time without worrying about your pet's wellbeing. Book early as holiday dates fill quickly.
At Kiesel Bark, we solve the biggest worry every pet parent has – finding trustworthy, affordable care that treats your dog like family, not just another boarding number. After 11 years of serving Auburn families since 2014, we’ve built our reputation on providing spacious accommodations with some of the largest kennels in Auburn, plus large outdoor play areas that give dogs real room to run and play. Why settle for cramped, expensive facilities when your beloved pet deserves space, attention, and care that remains the most affordable in Auburn? Call us today at (334) 734-2650 to schedule a visit and see why Auburn families have trusted us with their furry family members for over a decade.
When you call us at (334) 734-2650, we'll discuss your dog's specific needs, temperament, and any special requirements like medications or dietary restrictions. We encourage you to visit our climate-controlled facility anytime during business hours to meet our staff and see where your pet will be staying. On drop-off day, our friendly staff will walk you through a quick check-in process.
While you're away, your dog will enjoy supervised playtime in our large outdoor play areas, regular feeding according to their schedule, and plenty of attention from our experienced staff. We monitor each pet throughout the day to ensure they're happy, healthy, and getting the exercise and socialization they need.
When you return for pickup (including convenient Sunday pickup times from 8-8:30am and 4-5pm), we'll give you a quick summary of how your dog's stay went, including their eating habits, play preferences, and any memorable moments. You'll see a tired, happy pup who's had a great time but is excited to see you again. We're always here to answer questions and help you plan future stays as your travel needs change.

Posted on meg grayTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This place has taken such good care of my two dogs. They are very anxious, but are always excited to be there for boarding. We even called last minute to get them a bath and they worked it in so they were clean when we picked them up.Posted on Courtney CarlisleTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My husband and I had to travel for work for a couple of months, and I cannot say enough good things about this place! Our dog had the BEST time, and I would 100% trust them again without hesitation. They took such amazing care of Coda, and it was so obvious he was happy, comfortable, and having a blast. We loved getting photo updates during his stay; every picture showed him having the time of his life! The staff is incredibly kind, caring, and genuinely loves the animals they work with. I’m beyond grateful that Coda had such a safe, fun, and loving place to stay while we were away. They said he made so many new friends! Highly, highly recommend!Posted on Cindi BurtTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Tater Tot is treated like a king at this place. They love him like I do.
