Dog Boarding Gastonia

About: We’ve both been around dogs our entire lives, and caring for them has always been a natural part of our home. We’ve also fostered dogs, which gave us experience welcoming dogs with different personalities, routines, energy levels, and comfort needs into our family. We currently share our home with Winston, our friendly French Bulldog, who loves having new friends around! We understand that every dog is different, so we take the time to learn your pup’s normal routine, personality, feeding schedule, favorite activities, and what helps them feel most comfortable. We’re comfortable caring for puppies, adult dogs, and seniors, including dogs who need medication or a little extra patience and attention. Whether your dog loves playing in the yard, going for a walk, curling up on the couch, or simply being close to people, we want their stay to feel as much like home as possible. Most importantly, we know how much trust it takes to leave your dog with someone else. We’ll treat your pup like part of our family and keep you updated with plenty of photos so you can relax knowing they’re safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into our everyday routine! Between the two of us, we have flexibility in our schedules that allows us to give our four-legged guests plenty of attention throughout the day. Our days already revolve around our own dog, Winston, so potty breaks, backyard time, playtime, meals, and lots of attention are part of our normal routine. We have a fenced-in backyard that makes it easy for the dogs to get outside frequently throughout the day, whether they want to play, explore, or just enjoy some fresh air. When your dog stays with us, we’ll do our best to keep them on the routine they’re used to at home—including feeding times, medications, bedtime routines, walks, and any special instructions you provide. We want their stay with us to feel like part of their normal life, just with a few new friends and a little extra spoiling! Your dog’s safety and comfort are always our top priorities. We have a fully fenced backyard where dogs can enjoy plenty of supervised outdoor time, and we never leave guest dogs outside unattended. We take introductions with our dog, Winston, slowly and supervise interactions so everyone has time to get comfortable with one another. We understand that not every dog wants to play or be social all the time, so we’re happy to provide separate spaces when someone needs a little quiet time to relax and decompress. We also have crates available if your dog is crate-trained and feels most comfortable having their own familiar space. Inside our home, dogs are treated like part of the family. They’re welcome to relax with us, play, snuggle, and settle in just like they would at home. We follow each owner’s instructions closely when it comes to feeding, medications, potty schedules, walks, sleeping arrangements, and household rules so we can keep your dog’s routine as familiar as possible. We also believe trust means keeping you in the loop. You can expect regular updates and plenty of photos during your dog’s stay, and we’ll always reach out if we have a question or notice anything unusual. Our goal is for you to feel just as comfortable with your dog staying here as your pup feels being here.

“I HIGHLY recommend! Ron was so awesome. He's got a great big back yard that our dog loved. He was super responsive to both my fiancé and myself while we were gone. He sent pictures and our dog looked like he was having a blast. We won't be going with anybody else from now on! Thanks Ron, we appreciate you - Jeff”

“Nicole was great with my goldendoodle Kingston. She kept me updated from the time I left, and each day after. She sent me photos of him playing with her two dogs, and a German Shepard that was there one day on a play date. Kingston was well cared for, and judging from the photos he had a ball while there. He was able to run and play in Nicole's hugh backyard,and Kingston also had a dedicated room in her house to nap/sleep. Nicole is a fantasic sitter and I could tell that she loves dogs. I would definitely reommend her services if you need a dog sitter.”

“Our 5 month old puppy, Beau, had a wonderful time staying with Brad, running around their spacious home, playing with their pups and toys, and snuggling up on the couch. I especially appreciated their understanding of that Beau’s house training is still a work in progress 🙄. We will joyfully return the next time we leave town!!”

“Leighanne took great care of Twilight over the past few days. Twilight took a day to settle in but was content afterwards. Would definitely use again.”

“Susan was absolutely wonderful! She sent us numerous videos and pictures of the dogs each evening and even got them a Christmas present! The dogs really seemed to have lots of fun running around in her big fenced yard and they also loved her daughters! We were so glad we did not have to worry about Maggie and Minnie during our cruise!”

Devon P.

“Cory watched Sofia for me while I made a work trip. She had so much fun hanging with him and his pups. His pups are so sweet and love to be outside like Sofia does! Cory responded quickly to all my texts and sent me pictures”

“I should have reviewed this wonderful family after the first time!!!! This is the 2nd time I have entrusted my fur baby to them and I cannot say enough wonderful things about their care. My dog now believes this is her 2nd home!”

“Super friendly and great with Yoolee! We have used her on 2 overnight occasions with 1 being short notice and she has always been very accommodating and responsive. We highly recommend Katie.”

“Leigh was absolutely amazing. Leo had the best time. He usually doesnt eat due to separation anxiety but Leigh was able to get him to eat and that was very comforting.”

Alisha L.

“Jennifer was absolutely wonderful with my dog, Kobe! She took great care of him and gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. She sent daily updates with pictures and videos, which made it so reassuring to see how happy and well cared for he was. It was clear that she genuinely cared about Kobe and treated him like one of her own. I highly recommend Jennifer to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and communicative dog sitter. I'll definitely book with her again!”

“Vita was a great sitter! She communicated with me the whole time and constantly sent video and picture updates. Also my dog is a senior dog that takes several medicines twice a day, and she administered them properly with no problem.”

Ashley C.

“We left our very anxious dog, Judo, with Sarah and Erik for 2 weeks while we went out of state for our wedding. She can really struggle with new people and men, but she warmed up well (it took a few days but that’s just Judo)! I got many updates, pictures, and videos all showing me that Judo was having a good time. I could not have picked anyone better to watch her. She got along great with their dog, Rosie, who was happy to play or just hang out! I would absolutely have Judo stay with them again.”

Josie N.

“This was the first time I have left Buddy for a week. Amanda was amazing with sending updates with pictures When we had our meet & greet Buddy was so comfortable with Amanda and Her house. When I picked Him up, Buddy seemed like He didn't want to leave, which is Great for Amanda and was a little sad for Me lol. I would recommend Amanda for all your needs, She is now family to Us and Buddy.”

Sandy H.

“Jessica was the best Rover experience that I ever had. She treated my dog so well and made her feel like home. She provided me with consistent updates and pictures and my sweet Jewel was beyond happy.”

Chelsea C.

“Gunner only stayed for a few days but I can tell he was well taken care of. Deborah is very knowledgeable about dogs and training so I felt very comfortable leaving my pup with her. I'd definitely recommend her and her husband to anyone needing a dog sitter!”

“John took great care of my dog and was excellent at communication. He even took my dog out for a pup cup on my dogs birthday! We definitely will be rebooking him for any future trips.”
