Pet Boarding Barnardsville

About: I currently am working as an ER veterinary nurse. Previously, I was a nurse at a general practice hospital for 6 years, and prior to that, worked at an additional hospital as well as a pet store with exotics. I am more than comfortable administering any method of medication, and taking care of your medical needs, special needs, or senior fur babies. I own two friendly dogs, two sassy cats, and a baby ball python myself- variety is the spice of life. If you’re looking for a medically experienced caretaker for your kids, I’m your gal! *also have grooming experience with medical needs animals I just moved to the Asheville area, so Im excited to explore around. I do work as a ER veterinary nurse in the area, but I still plan on working Rover into my schedule! I have two friendly dogs, who will play with dogs that want to play, ignore the ones who don’t, and will be gentle with the young and little ones. I do not have a yard, but I am very active and used to taking my large dogs for >3-4 mile walks daily.

“This was our second time using Robin, and she is truly fantastic! She previously took wonderful care of another pet of ours, so we already knew we were leaving our pup in the absolute best hands. From start to finish, she was a great communicator—always quick to reply, clear, and incredibly easy to coordinate with. She is also amazing with updates; we received regular photos and messages, which gave us total peace of mind and let us see just how much fun was being had. Their setup is absolutely perfect. They have a great fenced-in yard that offers plenty of secure space to run around. Plus, their own small, friendly, and playful dog, Winston, was the perfect host. He is so sweet and playful, making the stay feel like a fun puppy vacation. We love having a trusted, reliable go-to sitter and will absolutely continue booking with her.”

“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!”

About: I genuinely love animals, and spending time with them never feels like work to me. I’m an active person who loves walks and playtime with energetic pups, but I’m equally happy giving a cat some quiet company and affection or simply respecting the space of a pet who prefers to do their own thing. While I’m new to offering services through Rover, I’m not new to pet sitting. I’ve cared for pets through TrustedHousesitters, including cats, active dogs, and senior pets with different personalities, needs, and routines. I’m also happy to share reviews from my previous sits. I’m a pet mom myself to Daisy, our sweet, social, and playful Golden Retriever. We’re not looking to add another pet to our family right now, but Daisy loves other dogs, so welcoming a friendly pup into our home gives her a chance to make new friends and enjoy some meaningful playtime too. As a pet parent, I know how much peace of mind comes from knowing your animal isn’t simply being “watched.” I want them to feel safe, comfortable, loved, and genuinely cared for while you’re away. That might mean long walks and playtime, lots of snuggles and attention, or giving a shy or independent pet the space and patience they need to feel comfortable. When I leave Daisy with someone, I love knowing that she’s not just safe, but actually having a good time. I want her stay to feel like a fun little getaway rather than being left behind. That’s the same feeling I hope to give you when you leave your pet in my care. Whether I’m walking your pup, checking in on your cat, or welcoming your dog into our home, my goal is simple: to treat your pet with the same attention, kindness, and care I’d want for my own. 🧚‍♀️🐾✨ My schedule is very flexible during the week, which gives me plenty of time for walks, play, potty breaks, and lots of attention. I primarily work as a gigging musician on weekends, so I tend to keep most of my bookings to weekdays. If I’m available for weekend boarding, my husband is also home and helps with pet care, so your pup will still have plenty of company and attention. My Rover calendar will always reflect my current availability! We have a spacious home with plenty of room for pets to relax and play, including a puppy-proofed area where dogs can safely hang out and make themselves at home. We also have a large yard that is currently unfenced, so dogs are always supervised and leashed outside. We’re having a fence installed soon! Our sweet, social Golden Retriever puppy, Daisy, loves other dogs and would be thrilled to welcome a friendly pup for a stay and playdate. We live on a quiet little street that’s great for walks, and I’m also happy to load up the pups for longer adventures at nearby parks, greenways, and trails. I want your dog’s stay to feel as comfortable and familiar as possible, so tell me all about their normal routine: where they sleep, whether they’re crate-trained, feeding schedule, favorite activities, quirks, and anything else that helps them feel at home. We’re flexible and happy to accommodate what works best for your pup. 🐾

“Molly was so wonderful to coordinate with and sent lots of pictures of Bailey. It looks like Bailey had the best day in the sunshine with Molly’s dogs. I appreciated that she took the time to do a meet and greet beforehand. I definitely recommend Molly.”

“I cannot express how much we appreciate Julie! She is extremely responsible, always reliable, and loves my dog like one of her own. This is the first time we did an in-home stay for our large, goofy lab. The peace of mind we have knowing he is so well taken care of is invaluable. I highly recommend Julie.”

About: Grew up with dogs, speak their language. I’m patient and active and just want them to be the happiest doggo they can be! Flexible schedule and am willing to build a relationship with your dog for next time you go out of town. My large fenced in yard rocks too! If you are comfortable with me doing outings with your doggo, I have a handful of trails I visit daily. Let me know their routine and ways to have fun and I got you! They are our fur babies and should be treated as such. I’m confident your pooch and I will be good buds by the time you get back :) Walk in the morning, work from home during the day so multiple potty breaks in the yard, and a longer walk in the afternoon. Breakfast and dinner consistently around 9:30 and 6:30. Weekends are for adventures! I make sure each dog has their set up with familiar foods and scents and toys. There is defined potty time, walking, playtime, and downtime so each dog gets 1:1 attention.

“Jen was a great host to our pup, Rocky! She kept us updated with how he was doing each day as well as sent daily pictures. I would definitely recommend Jen as a host: great communication, positive attitude, flexible schedule (ended up having to add an extra day) and reasonable prices. You won't be disappointed!”

“Jennie and her sweet daughter did such a terrific job making our little Dixie and us comfortable on our first night away. She enjoyed playing with their dog and all the attention. Wonderful experience and I look forward to boarding her again!”

About: All manner of creatures big and small. Dog training/some cat training/Horses Every bit of 21 years of experience! A Reliable Pet Caretaker you can Trust This is one of my main focuses in my live and it's very fulfilling taking care of our furry friends 🐾 I can do both sitting and boarding because I have plenty of room and can travel when needed. I live in a large farm house on a cow farm with plenty of room both inside and out. Pets are allowed on the furniture and I have hardwood floors.

“Samuel and Erica were great! I got lots of pictures and feedback. Samuel and Erica have Lana well trained as others have stated, and it’s evident. Moose settled in with them pretty quickly. Moose is small and didn’t want to play. They both learned to peacefully co-exist just as Samuel and Erica have experienced with other small pups. I highly recommend them!”

“Keily went above and beyond or expectations! We received daily check ins with pictures and videos. The environment she provided was excellent for our high energy dog with several walks and activities to meet the demand or dog needed. It felt like our pup was on her own vacation and apart of her family. We are so happy to have found Keily and will be utilizing her services in the future. 10/10 recommended.”

“Another 5 star review for Alexa! She communicated well and gave us daily updates. Her dogs were great playmates for our pup. She has a nice fenced yard.”

About: I have grown up with dogs my entire life! I also worked in a dog kennel in college. Love being around animals as much as I can! I work a full time job so I primarily would have more time on weekends but I can make mid day trips home for potty breaks! I let animals roam around my home so they can feel comfortable. I have a large dog bed and food bowls already here along with a few toys and treats!

“Kristina did such a great job with my 5 year old golden retriever Rosie. She sent me lots of cute updates and my dog absolutely loved her. She even went out of her way to bring one of my dogs favorite toys that she accidently left behind back to us. We will definitely be using Kristina as a future petsitter and would recommend her for anyone looking for a wonderful and dependable buddy for your dog while you’re away.”

“We have an older dog with health issues and we were nervous about leaving him for a week. Ryan made us feel very at ease with leaving him and we had no doubt he was in great hands while we were gone. She sent us updates to let us know how he was doing and went the extra mile to make sure he was comfortable and well cared for. Highly recommended!”

Stephanie K.

“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!!”

Sandra M.

“Nikki was beyond amazing with her care for our pup! Her home and property are a dog’s dream for endless running and outdoor time. She also made sure Asha got lots of great hikes on the nearby trails! Also, her dog is a wonderful play buddy! Nikki even gave us some goodies from her garden when we arrived and then made sure Asha got an early morning trail hike/romp early in the morning before we picked her up. We couldn’t have asked for better care for our fur-kid. Thank you, Nikki!!”

Mike O.

“Nicole was great. She sent lots of photos and was very responsive. I would use her again.”

“My doggy seemed to have a really good time with Josh and Autumn and their children. Especially the kids seem to enjoy my dog, which is always a good sign. I hope they are available the next time I need to have my doggie careful for”
