Pet care experience

We love dogs! 🐶

Hi, we are Jaren and Ann Skinner and our 13 year old daughter Fiona. Along with our 2 small but mighty dogs, 2.5 year old, 20lb, certified service dog and miniature Australian Shepherd Bowie, and 6 year old, 4lb yorkie Mookie! We ask your pets get along with other smaller dogs and older children (13). We also have 3 new baby chickens (separated from any pets) that are growing fast :) We just moved to Asheville/Hendersonville from Fort Myers Florida after we had enough of the hurricanes (Ian), and the heat. We absolutely love this area. Our place: We have a large, 2 story residence with very large outdoor area! Our Aussie can’t get enough outside fun time. Dogs are allowed in all areas of the downstairs living area. Upstairs has two rooms available if your pup likes alone time in a crate to sleep. Just let us know your fur baby’s preferences! We are home nearly 24/7 because we work here also. So you can trust we will take great care of your fur baby.

Ann & Jaren took such good care of my pup. Every picture they sent she was so happy and having fun with their other dogs and visits to their favorite places. You can't go wrong booking with Ann & Jaren!

Doggy Day Care • May 19, 2026

Ann and Jaren took great care of my Aussie Shepherd, Scout and thats saying a lot! He is very anxious in a new environment and they were so patient and understanding of him. He had a great time despite a rough start. Thank you so much.

Safety, trust & environment

We are in a rural area away from roads, on a private drive, with a very large fenced in dog park out back. We have private upstairs rooms available for your fur baby if that is what you need. Lots of space in our office and home for crates and play areas. Hard laminate flooring for easy cleaning of any accidents :)

Pets

A typical day

A small kiddie pool in the dog park for water fun during the warm months. Tons of dog toys inside the house as Bowie is always asking us to play fetch :) Trips to the nearby dog parks are an option if you prefer. We are outside quite often with the pups in the fenced doggie park. It’s about the size of a football field. All the dogs absolutely love it!
