Property Description

RC Kennels is a rare opportunity to acquire a long-established, profitable dog and cat daycare, boarding, and grooming facility paired with a fully updated residence on 43 +/- acres in Geary County, Kansas, located just outside the main gate of Fort Riley in Junction City. In operation for over 43 years, the business has demonstrated consistent performance with strong gross revenues and stable EBITDA, supported by a loyal and recurring customer base that includes a large military population. RC Kennels also benefits from an exceptional online reputation, boasting outstanding Google reviews and a 100% recommendation rating on Facebook, further reinforcing the strength of the brand and community trust.

The property is thoughtfully improved for both business and residential use. The ranch-style home features 4 bedrooms, 2 full baths, a finished basement, and an attached 2-car garage, with extensive updates including new vinyl flooring, cabinets, countertops, newer HVAC and water heater, and a brand-new roof installed in 2025. Additional lifestyle amenities include a hot tub, gazebo, walk-in pantry, and spacious living areas. Complementing the residence is a separate, fully finished shop and event space, fully insulated and equipped with finished flooring, electrical, WiFi, lounge areas, and a mini-split heating and cooling system - offering flexible use for gatherings, storage, or business-related functions.

The kennel facility is fully operational and purpose-built, featuring a welcoming office and lobby, 66 indoor runs, 45 outdoor runs, 3 indoor/outdoor runs, 7 outdoor fully fenced play areas, and 8 indoor cat suites. The operation is supported by two grooming rooms, two wash bays, food storage and laundry areas, extensive concrete flooring, integrated drainage and wash-out systems, and five HVAC systems, allowing for efficient, scalable operations. Two additional 12'x20' metal storage buildings with concrete floors and electrical further enhance functionality. This property is ideally suited for an owner-operator seeking to live on-site, expand grooming or boarding services, or potentially convert the facility into a veterinary clinic, creating a comprehensive, full-service animal care campus in one of the strongest pet-service markets in the region.
