“Chelsey is amazing and was an absolute lifesaver! I unexpectedly had to work remotely out of town and needed last minute help with my dog. I messaged her early that morning on a whim, and she responded immediately. She even came to pick my dog up so I could clock in at a decent time, which meant so much. She kept my dog all day, took her on two walks, gave her play time, plenty of potty breaks, and sent me pictures and updates throughout the day. When I picked her up, my dog was SO happy and playing with the other dogs which is huge because she’s not always the best with other dogs. It was clear she felt comfortable, happy and well cared for. I highly recommend Chelsey for all your fur babies’ needs and will absolutely be using her services again in the future whenever possible!”


“Brooke and her family were great! They clearly took great care of my pup as he was content around her, but worn out and ready to nap by the time we got in the car. She was really flexible and great at communicating. Would recommend and will use again in the future!”

About: I have always loved animals of all kinds. It started when I was a little girl and I was constantly bringing animals home with me! During my husband's time in the USAF, we moved around for 26 years and in our final tour, we were stationed near a dog grooming school. I decided to go to school while grooming my own dogs at home! I was disappointed one afternoon after spending 8 hours grooming my dogs that I didn't have more to groom! Once my husband retired from the Air Force we were able to build my shop. I have owned the Grooming Gazebo for 9 years now and have decided to expand my business! I have added the Getaway for dogs to be able to stay while their parents are on vacation! I absolutely love dogs and especially love taking care of them! We have a 70 acre farm and your pup could enjoy long walks and a completely fenced in yard with a nice porch to sit on just in case they decide to hang out! If you would like to come check us out, please give us a call!
“I would absolutely use Jeanette again for doggy daycare and boarding! My dog, Lacey, had back surgery and had to relearn how to walk. She still has some special needs, and Jeanette provided outstanding care throughout. She and her own dog welcomed Lacey, and the two became great buddies. Lacey loved spending time in the large, fenced-in yard, which gave her plenty of space to explore and enjoy. She also made herself comfy on the couch for her afternoon naps, clearly feeling safe and at home. I appreciated the frequent updates and the many adorable pictures that reassured me she was in loving hands. Jeanette is a true professional who takes her role seriously, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for dedicated, compassionate care for their pup.”

“We had a great day! Whitney was awesome. She let me run & play with her dogs. She took me for walks. She even let me sit on her lap..., not that I gave her much choice! LOL. Mom said I could come back anytime. I sure hope it's soon!! --- Bronwyn, Rottweiler dog”

“Jennifer was very accommodating and friendly. We dropped our dog two days in a row for daycare, and he was very happy when we picked him and excited to return the next day. We will definitely go to Jennifer again when we’re back in Pinehurst.”

“Lucia is, by far, the best dog sitter we have ever trusted our dog with. She’s incredibly attentive and flexible with our schedule, and our dog loves seeing her every time we drop him off. She is amazing, and we would give her 10 stars if we could! Thank you Lucia!”

About: I have tons of experience in doggy day care, and my husband and I moved to the area 3 years ago. He is active duty ARMY, so he can be gone a lot, and what better way to fill the time than with furry friends! I will love your dog like my own. I go to the gym in the morning, than I am home the rest of the day! We will have plenty of time for walks and play time and I hope you meet you and you furry friend soon! I am getting my masters degree in nutrition from an online university so I do all of my work from home! It is the perfect home for your doggie too! I will love your pet as you do! Walk and feed in the morning and then feed and a walk after dinner plus the dog gets free roam in and out of the house because we have a fully fenced in yard I’m a stay at home mom with two little kids! They are two and five. We have a huge fenced in yard and I am never gone for more than an hour or two.
About: Hi! I’m Kat — and I offer personalized walks and enrichment as a trusted extension of your dog’s care team. I know how hard it is to leave your dog. They’re family. Clear communication and consistency matter, and I take that seriously. Every visit is an opportunity to build trust — with both you and your pup. You’ll receive thoughtful updates that include notes on energy, potty, behavior, and anything I’m noticing (because yes, I absolutely pay attention to the details). I truly treat each dog as the individual they are. Some are bold explorers. Some are thoughtful observers. Some love a purposeful walk, while others prefer a slower pace with time to sniff and take it all in. I adjust each visit based on age, health, temperament, and your household routines — meeting your dog where they are and supporting what helps them thrive. I’m especially attentive to patterns — what helps a dog feel calm, confident, and engaged. Safety and steady leadership are always my priorities. I’m mindful at doors, leashes, transitions, and the environment around us so your dog’s experience is secure, structured, and positive.

“We’ve booked Christina to care for our Scarlett while we’re away on vacation. She’s a nervous walker and I’m so grateful for Christina’s patience in working with her on walks.”

“We were on vacation from Louisiana during the fourth of July weekend and needed one day to ourselves with out Sara. Katie did wonderful. She constantly was sending pictures and updates. Sara was just exhausted when we got home, and slept like a beauty on the 8 hour drive home the next day. If I lived in the area I would defiantly be a repeat customer!”
