Pet Boarding Arden

About: I grew up surrounded by animals from dogs and cats to chickens and so caring for pets has been second nature for as long as I can remember. As an adult, I have volunteered at multiple animal rescue centers and was able to rescue and raise 2 wonderful dogs who were a huge part of our lives until they passed. ​More recently, I’ve worked as a house and pet sitter through TrustedHouseSitters, where homeowners regularly rely on me to care for both their homes and their beloved animals while they’re away. ​Whether your pet needs dedicated supervision, routine medications, or overnight care, I treat every pet in my care with the same patience, attention, and love I’d give my own. ​What I Offer ​Active Dog Walking All Ages & Sizes: Comfortable handling everything from high-energy puppies to large dogs up to 110 pounds. ​Specialized Care: Experienced in oral and topical medication administration, house sitting, and maintaining consistent daily schedules. ​Peace of Mind: Honest, dependable care for both your pets and your home while you're away. I'm currently working remote in a contract capacity and so my schedule is incredibly flexible! This means that I can adapt my work schedule around your pet's needs! My husband, Jeff, and I have a clean, safe, non-smoking, multi-level home in East Asheville North Carolina. with a small unfenced yard. My home is close to trails and walking paths so me and your beloved pet will have plenty of opportunities to get our daily exercise. When your pet is staying in my home they will have free reign of the home if that's something they're accustomed to! However, if your furry friend has limitations such as crate training requirements, we can certainly accommodate that too! I currently have no other pets, so your pet would be king or queen of the house during thier stay!

“I just boarded my dog for over 2 weeks with Rayana and I am extremely happy with her care. She has a nice backyard for the dogs to play together and plenty of toys. The dogs get a lot of loving attention. I received pictures and updates daily which was wonderful! Rayana has a lot of experience with taking care of dogs, pays attention to their personalities and sets boundaries if needed. My dog had a great time there, couldn’t be any happier with Rayana’s place!!”

“Our pup was showered with affection and given lots of outdoor playtime in a safe and secure yard. Patrick is challenged with separation anxiety and Nancy paid special attention to him to ensure he felt secure. When I picked Patrick up he was relaxed and full of peace. Thank you Nancy for making his stay safe and secure!”

“Gabriel was super accommodating and flexible when our travel plans changed and took great care of our dog. He even administered medications gave him lots of TLC in our absence.”

“Kristina took such great care of my dog while I was out of town. It was my first time using Rover and she took extra care to meet up and introduce our dogs beforehand so I felt extra comfortable. It was clear she had a great time staying at Kristina’s! Will definitely book with her again.”

“Tiffany was a godsend! She was able to work with out crazy active Beagle puppy named Cooper. It was like a happy camp for him and he got along with her dog very well. She sent lots of pictures of him running around, taking naps, and playing. You don’t have to worry about your dog or puppy if you get Tiffany as a dog sitter! She was on it all the time and gave lots of positive attention to our pup! We will definitely be using her again:-)”

“Cindy was so welcoming and thoughtful with my pup. Booking with Cindy was my first experience using a Rover and I was a bit nervous leaving my dog with someone new. Cindy offered to hold a meet and greet — she was patient, supportive, and really took time to get to know my dog, asked insightful questions, and gave her space to warm up to her new surroundings. I’ve already shared Cindy’s info with others for possible booking and plan to book with her again in the future.”

About: I have been surrounded by pets my whole life. Growing up, we always had dogs, cats, and birds. When I moved to the U.S, I lived in the country side with many dogs and thousand of birds (literally). Now, I have a little Chihuahua mix; he is like my baby. I also help my friends sitting their dogs when they are out of town. I love animals; I like to play with them and give them a lot of attention. I have experience administering medication to pets either orally or injectable . I am educated and trustful person who will respect your home and your pets. I am able to pass a background check if it is required. I have a cellphone and my own car. My husband and I both work from home, so your dog will never be left alone. Our jobs are very flexible, which means we can take your dog for walks during the day. I have a very friendly old Chihuahua. My house is big, comfy and very clean. It's at the end of a cul-de-sac, so there's no traffic.

About: I've been around dogs since I was little and I've watched a few dogs in Asheville and taken them on walks and we always have a great time. I'm a musician, so I'm home full time and i have a flexible schedule and plenty of space to play with and walk a dog. My home is a very calm environment, and we have a nice outdoor space. The neighbors have dogs so there could be opportunities to play with other dogs if that's something they're into. If I was at your house it would be pretty much the same, I would of course be attentive and careful and I would treat your things like they were mine.

“Very attentive to our dog. He was a happy and tired boy when we picked him up. We got updated pictures throughout his stay. I would definitely book him with her again!”

About: I’ve have taken care of animals for about 15 years. Mainly dogs and cats. We currently have a chocolate lab named Bandit that would love someone to play with. We have a pool with a dock for easy ins and outs. We have a .5 acre fenced in back yard. I stay at home with our chocolate lab named Bandit. We would love to have your dog come and spend time with us! I do have typical errands to run but usually I am home. We would love them like they are part of the family! We would follow your instructions and keep an eye on them but also having fun and lots of cuddles.

“Emily and her family took great care of D-Rex and were very flexible. They sent us a lot of pictures and kept us updated. So glad we found them in such short notice and they were able to accommodate us.”

“Great experience with using Autumn as a dogsitter for my dog Charlie. Was quick to respond and took care of my dog like her own! Will definitely use again.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a little girl. Friends and neighbors have relied on me to take good care of theirs pets in different ways. Depending on the circumstances, I taken care of dogs at my house where they can run and play in our big fenced yard. Other times, I’ve stayed at friend’s house to keep their dog comfortable in his own home. Lastly, I’ve helped by stopping by and checking on pets few times a day or as needed. I work remotely with a flexible schedule during the week, and most Fridays off giving me plenty of free time to help you with your pet. I have a big fenced yard where the dogs can run free and safe when they need fresh air, and a big comfy space indoors perfect to take naps and keep me company while I work.

“Scott took great care of Cheyenne and gave her extra love during thunderstorms. He has a beautiful property and Cheyenne had a great time playing with his pups.”

“I left my babies for a week in the caring hands of Max and at all times I felt they were safe, loved, and well supervised. Max's laid back attitude put the doggies at ease and I'll admit, I was a little annoyed when they wouldn't come to me at pick up! LOL! That just speaks volumes about Max. I wouldn't hesitate leaving my doggies with Max again! Thank you so much!”

“Daniella did such a great job with the dogs! We have never left them this long before and we were worried how they would be when we got back. They came home happy and full of energy, totally their normal selves. It was great getting photo updates every day. I would certainly use Danielle again. Thanks so much Daniella!”

“Sarah was wonderful with our dog, Ruby. She was very communicative and sent great updates during our trip. Ruby was super happy and tired out from playing with Sarah’s dog when we picked her up.”

“Riley and I both enjoyed working with Heather. Riley loved hanging out on her balcony, play with toys, and going for walks. Heather was easy to work with, great communication, and we’ve already rebooked with her!”
