Dog Boarding in Kinston, AL

“Carolyn is awesome. She knows how to handle dogs and keeps you informed about how your fur baby is doing. Trip came back from his visit tired from all the activities and that’s a good thing. It was a great experience and she’s going to be my go to when I have to leave town.”

“I cannot recommend Kaia and Desean enough. I needed an extended stay for my Shar Pei who struggles with leash reactivity and sometimes has poor social skills when making introductions. I explained this from the start expecting to be turned down but was assured to bring the pup out and see if it was a match. Thankfully it was! My Mochi girl had tons of space to run and play and had a blast trying to her new pals to play. Kaia and Desean took the time to take care of my pup and send me updated which pup me at ease. If you get the opportunity, I HIGHLY recommend these two. Absolutely wonderful private space for your pup, great open space for play, and great people who truly care for their charges.”

“Tiffany was flexible, responsive, and very patient. Even though my doggo made a mess the first day likely due to stress she really showed a lot of empathy and loved on my pooch.”

“Phyllis is Great with our Max!! She is beyond patient with our small dog who is HIGHLY energized! She did everything possible to keep him safe, calm, and happy during a rainy and LOUD holiday weekend for the July 4th! Which is no small thing concerning he is extremely scared of fireworks and bad weather! I highly recommend her to care for your fury family members! She treats them just like they are her own! Can’t thank her enough!”

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I’ve raised puppies from the ground up and currently care for two energetic, lovable dogs of my own — a Lab Collie mix and a German Shorthair Pointer. I understand the importance of exercise, patience, and attention to detail when it comes to each dog’s unique needs. Whether it’s puppy playtime, long walks, or keeping a consistent routine, I treat every pet like they’re part of the family. I’m confident with a variety of breeds, temperaments, and energy levels, and I’m committed to providing safe, reliable, and loving care every time. I work part-time during the day, which gives me plenty of flexibility for drop-ins, walks, or overnight stays. On weekends and evenings, I’m usually outdoors or spending quality time with my dogs, so adding a few more furry friends to the mix fits in perfectly. Caring for animals isn’t just something I do — it’s something I truly enjoy and build into my lifestyle. When pets are in my care, their safety and comfort are my top priorities. At home, I provide a calm, dog-friendly environment where pups can relax, play, and feel like part of the family. My dogs are well-socialized, and I make slow, supervised introductions to ensure everyone gets along. I keep my space clean and secure, with plenty of room for play and quiet areas for rest. I stick to the routines pets are used to — feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, and any special needs. Whether it’s an overnight stay or a quick visit, your pet will be loved, safe, and cared for like one of my own.

“Very responsive on short notice. Big house with big fenced yard. Friendly dogs. Friendly people.”

“I could tell from the pictures Rachael shared with me of Buster Brown that he was very happy spending the weekend with her family. I think he even got to share a princess tent with her daughter!! I felt like Rachael and family loved my sweet boy and missed him after I picked him. It’s great to know your best friend is so well taken care of!”

Leigh C.

“I would leave more stars if I could! We were so nervous to leave our dog for the first time and Blake made it easy! She was kind & communicative. Blake sent pictures, videos, and updates often. She made the entire experience so simple. We will definitely be boarding with her in the future!”

Kelley H.

“Alyssa and her family were wonderful yet again (this was our dogs’ second visit). Alyssa is fantastic. I believe that she genuinely cares about our dogs and us. She stays in touch during their stay and is always very responsive and flexible when needed. If you’re looking for great people to watch your fur babies, look no further! Thank you for all that you do!!”

Rachel D.

“Katherine was great with my two year old, 70lb pit bull mix. I appreciated her responsiveness and updates throughout his stay. Wouldn't hesitate to book again!”

About: Hey everyone! I would love to take care of your pet care needs! Ive owned my dogs all of their life and they are quite spoiled! My oldest is 14 and youngest is 2 years. All get along with others. I have one kitty also! I have also worked at the local shelter and can administer meds and care for disabled pets. Please know that your babies will be treated as my own. Any special care that your pet may need is perfectly fine as I'm used to special needs babies as well. I am always home with my own fur babies so I pretty much have open availability! There are rare occasions when I’m not available and that’s usually disclosed. Each pet is looked after as an individual with their needs met. I believe that the care that I provide should mean the most to your pets while you are away. I strive to make everything as stress free as possible for your sweet baby(ies). They will be thoroughly looked after while in my care!

“I cannot recommend Brenna highly enough! They took such wonderful care of my dogs while I was away. From the moment we met, I felt completely at ease—my dogs took to them right away, which says a lot! Throughout the stay, she sent regular updates, photos, and even a video, which made being away from my pups so much easier. It was clear they treated my dogs like part of the family—with walks, playtime, and cuddles. When I returned, my dogs were happy, calm, and clearly very well cared for. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, loving, and responsible to watch your dog, look no further. I’ll absolutely be booking with Brenna again!”

Kara M.

“Diamond was very professional, kind, and communicative with us while our boy Koda was staying with her! We received pictures and updates frequently and he looked happy in every photo! Our Koda can be very timid around new people, but he made himself at home right away with Diamond and loved playing with her dogs. We recommend Diamond to anyone who is looking for an attentive and experienced caretaker for their pets!”

About: I've worked in the Dog training and handling industry for the last 5 years. So I know how to handle all different types of quirks and personalities. I live On-Post with a fenced back yard. I can accommodate a dog crate with a variety of different toys! I've taken care of a large variety of breeds big and small. Anything between a sweet couch dog and dogs who love to run and play I can handle it! I work full time but take time out of my day to ensure dogs are let out for breaks throughout the day. I can take dogs for walks either before or after work and on the weekends. On days with fair weather the back door can be left open with a screen to allow dogs access outside throughout the day as well. I have a crate at the house if it is needed. My back yard is fenced with a locked gate. I have two female dogs at the house that are extremely friendly, but can separate if need be to accommodate your pet.

“Joe was absolutely amazing with my dogs. My high energy dog was worn out from playing so much and my lazy dog loved having a place to relax. I will definitely be taking my dogs back for all my upcoming trips. His dogs were so welcoming for my dogs.”

About: I’ve taken care of large, active breeds and smaller, more relaxed pups - all are welcome! All pets will have the opportunity for consistent, safe walks on post with play and attention throughout the day. I am available throughout the work week to help ensure pets are able to get their walks in or to host (at our home or yours) for training or weekend passes and leave. Happy to coordinate a routine schedule or arrange for unexpected care! I have a fenced in yard in Bowden terrace, with a large residential field nearby to take for fetch or for walks around the block. At home, we have a relaxed corgi of our own; your pet is welcome to lounge in the front room, receive healthy snacks (with your approval), and may either sleep in the open or in a kennel for the evening if you prefer. All care will be coordinated with you to ensure your pet feels welcome and comfortable!
