Dog Boarding in Gibsonville, NC

“Taylor and her family were amazing! This was the first time we have ever used Rover, and we could not have had a better experience. Our dog, Miles, felt right at home the entire weekend he was with them, and he was very happy and content when he came home. Thank you all again for taking such good care of our pup! Y’all are the best—we’ll definitely rebook!”

“Grace is exceptional, above and beyond, caring and attentive. I am a very high-maintenance cat mama with an older girl who needs multiple pills, and Grace handled this effortlessly, sending pictures and reassuring me whenever I needed it. I’ll be booking her again when I have to travel next!!”

“I really appreciate Joaquin caring for my dog, Dingo. He’s someone I can rely on at the last minute when I need to be out of town. He texts me pic updates and maintains good communication. I will continue to leave Dingo with him as needed.”

“Bailey is an absolute pleasure to work with. She communicates promptly, is dependable, and is always pleasant. Our dog (named Bailey!) is excited when we get to her home and is very comfortable when we pick her up. We enjoy having Bailey keep her.”

“Meia is amazing! Our dog Hunter loves her! He even got to watch dog tv. lol He really enjoyed being there and was obviously happy. Will definitely re-book her for the future!”

“Evan was wonderful! He sent daily updates with pictures, my dog Prince looked like he was having so much fun, and staying active. Evan’s a true dog lover I would leave my dog, with him anytime!”

“Our Sammy is a puppy and can be a handful, and Sarah handled him with TLC and gave him the best care! She updated me with pics and videos, and he had so much fun! Sammy is going back in July for another stay. I am 100% satisfied with the love and care they gave my baby! Thank you Sarah!!”

“Phoebe made some new friends! She had a wonderful time with Erin and Co. Daily playtime with her small dogs and cuddles afterward! Who could ask for more?”

“This was my first time using a sitter for my big puppy, a Great Dane. Ariana was terrific - caring and knowledgeable about the specifics of my breed. I will definitely use her services again!”

“I cannot say enough about Debbie! She is extremely remarkable. My wife and I couldn't be any happier with the peace of mind we had knowing that Bobby was taking well care of. Everyday Debbie would update us of how the day was going for our baby. I would highly reccomend her as she is the best!”

“This was our second time booking and it seemed like our boy was so excited to be with Essence! He seemed way more comfortable and happy to be there!”

“Amy & John took such good care of our two dogs, boarding them for nearly a week while we traveled. I was so appreciative and relieved they would consider us, as our young dog, River, is always curious and has a pretty strong prey drive. I wondered if he would be suited to life on their farm. Our other guy, Colton, is 15 and has significant arthritis. These two could not have more different needs at this point. Amy and John have a beautiful farm, two special rescued dogs, Bruno & Pork Chop, cattle, chickens, even emu. This would be a new experience for both our guys! Generally we spend a great deal of time with them off leash walking our family farms, but this would be a new property and boundaries without fencing. At our meet and greet it was clear Amy and John are special people. We admired them right away! They are very experienced, and were aptly methodical about the introduction of all the dogs and their other farm animals. Their confidence that this could work for all parties involved was reassuring. Amy and John went above and beyond, very kind to take our dogs a day earlier than planned with short notice, and welcomed our daughter, also new to them, who transported the dogs for us. They were excellent at communicating, sending us updates, pictures, and videos, even though we’d told them this was not necessary, as keeping up with River, his energy and curiosities, we knew could be a full time job in and of itself. But it gave us great peace of mind hearing early on that all was going well and there were no issues. Because of Amy & John’s care, patience, and diligence, after a full day with them we received the following, “..Bruno and River have become fast friends, running circles and playing hide and seek in the woods like wild things! We’re not using the leashes at all as we walk in the woods. River’s been absolutely perfect about coming back when we call him.” And I got the biggest kick out of, “I just got back from a walk with all four dogs, Pork Chop and Colton waddling behind me and River and Bruno having a blast playing chase.” Along with a picture Amy sent of River with his head poking through from behind her knees (as crazy as it sounds), something he humors only us with here at home, we KNEW both our guys felt comfortable, were happy and very much cared for. I could not imagine a more perfect scenario for our dogs. Now back at home, we can definitely sense they are missing Amy, John, Bruno, Pork Chop, and daily life on their farm. I’d love to arrange a play date to help with this, and I KNOW precisely what River and Colton’s reactions will be once we approach their farm. It’s clear this is a family that loves animals and cares so much for the well-being of all they have rescued and assumed responsibility for. They are kind, exceptional, hard-working individuals, and we feel so fortunate to have met them and to have our dogs cared for by them. This is who we will turn to any time we need care and boarding for our dogs!”

“Cara was awesome! Our Daisy loved her and she was so communicative about Daisy’s stay. We will definitely book her again! ☺️”

“Thank you so much, Tyra, for caring for Ace last minute (and adding additional time at the last minute due to travel issues!!) Ace is super high energy, and the pictures you sent daily showed how well you handled that. He is currently asleep and probably not moving for the night!😆 I was so nervous to leave Ace with someone for the first time since rescuing him, but we will for sure be back!!”

“Judy did a wonderful job taking care of our sweet mini schnauzer. She is trustworthy and gives plenty of updates with pictures. Ever since we moved to this area, we have had a hard time finding someone who we can completely trust to keep our baby while we are gone, but Judy checks off all of our boxes! Judy should be your go to ESPECIALLY if you have a schnauzer. Our baby came home happy and tired. Thank you for everything Judy!”

“She did an amazing job with my pup! She sent pictures every day and communicated well. My dog was happy and well taken care of when I picked him up!”

“Christy was absolutely amazing with Lola. Her babies Kili and Ashi were great playmates to Lola as well. She kept me updated with pictures of Lola during her time there. Definitely will rebook!”

“Britteny was absolutely wonderful with my rescue dog who has severe separation anxiety. She was calm and sweet and Sadie felt safe and cared for. I highly recommend Britteny for your pet boarding needs!”

“They did a fantastic job, so happy they spent the week with them instead of in boarding, gave daily updates and sent pics, looks like they had it better there than at home, great fenced backyard”

“It hurt my feelings a good bit when dropping my dog Kit off, just to see how happy she was to visit her favorite pet sitter Kristen again! She could hardly contain her excitement to be staying again and I knew without a doubt she was yet again in capable hands. The pick up and drop off process couldn’t be easier and there’s no one I trust more in this world to watch my dog for me.”
