“We were worried about our Great Dane as it was her first stay away from us, but Jeremy & Katie sent us updates and she had a blast! We will definitely be back!”
“Maria and Jose took great care of our girl. They instantly made us feel comfortable and asked great questions to understand all her needs. They sent us tons of videos/pics throughout her stay which put us at ease knowing she was having a blast playing with their dogs and going on walks. I highly recommend them as they were great with our puppy.”
“This was JoJo’s first boarding experience. He seemed to have had a great time playing with the other dogs. Kristen took the time to send messages and photos of JoJo enjoying himself while we were gone. We will definitely use Kristen again.”
“Alexis is a really considerate sitter who took the time to send us a lot of photos of Dory and also take her on a few walks. She has an enclosed yard which was handy and a very comfortable apartment - I have no doubt our dog slept on every cushion within jumping range. Would highly recommend Alexis and will contact her again in the future!”
“We had our small pup, Tinkerbell stay with Vicky for 4 days & nights. She was so good with Tinkerbell, we were so impressed how much time & attention was given to our sweet Tink. She went on 3-4 walks daily, had children to enjoy, many videos & photos & they had toys to play with. Tink had a great vacation too. We loved Vicky & would highly recommend her for dog walking & boarding! Thank you Vicky, Tink can’t wait to come again for a visit with you & we appreciate your excellent care with her. Debbie & Tom”
“Amazing was my 1st time having to use a boarding she was able to take buddy last minute she sent me pics and was all above amazing I will never use a boarding place except for her she is the best”
“My dog had a great time with Sarah and her family. He was well-cared for, got along with their dog, and got lots of exercise and attention. It was a great experience and I appreciated the pictures she sent!”
“Words cannot express how much we love Brody! Brody has cared for our energetic pup a few times...most recently for 2 weeks. Brody kept us updated with photos and videos and reassured us when we were really missing our pup. He has been especially flexible with us & has helped us with last minute requests for dog sitting.”
“Erin took great care of our sweet dog, Lily. She was easy to communicate with, replied quickly, and sent pictures to let us know how much fun Lily was having playing in the river with Erin. I will be using her again, soon, and would highly recommend her to anyone!”
“I highly recommend Caroline! From the moment we met, it was clear that she has a genuine love for animals and a deep understanding of their needs. Caroline kept us updated throughout our time away, sending us regular photos and messages about our furbabies. This not only eased our minds but also showed us how much they were enjoying their time together. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your pets like family, look no further than Caroline. We will definitely be using her services again in the future!”
“Terri has watched my pup a few times now and it's been great each time! The most recent time was for a whole week. I was concerned about finding someone who could handle a wild and not-yet fully trained puppy and Terri has been so sweet, gracious and relaxed about everything. She even sent me photo/video so I could see how Zelda was doing. I love the farm atmosphere that Terri provides. She's clearly a true animal lover and Zelda seems to enjoy spending time visiting with both the human and animal friends she's made at Terri's. So glad we found someone capable, trustworthy and kind!”
“Jen was wonderful. Went out of her way to make sure the dog would be safe and happy. Bought her a toy, walked her a bunch and sent her home happy and worn out from playing. She was a lovely person, easy to correspond with, and took great care of Flora. Thank you, Jen!”
“Richard was watching my puppy when hurricane Helene hit. Despite the chaos and crisis he stayed in communication as best he could and kept her safe the entire time I was gone. Words can’t express my gratitude. Aside from that, he was very accommodating of her puppy needs and took great care of her.”
About: I absolutely love dogs and cats. I am willing to do check ins when you go out of town. I love all size dogs. If i do check ins I can come pretty much anytime of the day. I am also available on weekends. I am very responsible and trustworthy. I have watched dogs for many friends and family members. If you let me watch your dogs i will take great care of them for you! Dogs are the best animals and they are fun to be around. I also cat sit. I have a diabetic cat so I know a lot about cats. I will board your dog at my house but they have to be friendly with young kids and another dog and cat. I am also not too far from Weaverville. I’m a stay at home mom so I can be available all different times of the day. I am available weekdays and on the weekends. I do not have a fenced in yard but we do have bushes that separate it from the road and I can stay outside with them.
“Ann and Jaren were absolutely wonderful! They took such great care of my sweet Ernie for 10 days, and I could tell he was happy and loved while I was gone. It was such a relief knowing he was in such good hands. On top of that, they made things so easy for me—I was able to leave my car at their house, and they even gave me a ride to the airport. Truly above and beyond! I’m so grateful to have found them and wouldn’t hesitate to ask them again.”
“My small dog seemed to have a good experience staying with James. The update and pic I received everyday helped me to feel confident he was in good hands and comfortable in his surroundings. I will not hesitate to book with James again.”
“Bojangles had the BEST time with Laird and her son. During the meet and great she made sure all of us were comfortable with the space. During the time she had our pup she sent plenty of pictures and communicated with us throughout the trip. Her son was so loving with Bo and it was obvious when I picked him up that he wasn't done playing yet. I think we've found a trusted sitter with Laird.”
“Melody and her husband did an excellent job looking after my two rowdy pups. She watched them over a holiday weekend (Easter) and l couldn't have asked for better care. She was very sweet and friendly, her husband was the same. She was very informative and sent lots of pictures of the dogs. I would definitely use her services again and l highly recommend her for those looking for excellent care.”

Melody was truly amazing and took such great care of Pippa. With all the daily outings and adventures, it was clear Pippa was getting so much love and attention. The pictures she sent were such a great bonus and something I looked forward to every day. Thank you so much, Melody and Steve! I would absolutely recommend them to anyone and hope to use their care again in the future. 🐾
David “Albert” is fantastic with Penny and Millie. We had previously booked him for a house sit and that went quite well. This trip was the first time boarding Penny away from home and she loved it! We’ve already booked again for a longer upcoming trip. Highly recommend!
