Pet care experience

Canup Canine Haven & Retreat

Bring your beloved dogs to our tranquil woodland retreat, nestled in the heart of Lenoir, NC. We have a deep affection for creatures of all sizes and shapes, and our passion for pet care began in Monroe, NC, where we ran an in-home dog-sitting service. Some of our cherished former clients have even joined us in our new home! We relish the time spent with each furry guest, taking the opportunity to understand their unique personalities. Our approach emphasizes positive reinforcement, allowing us to work with dogs of various backgrounds, from high-energy pups to those battling anxiety, aging gracefully, overcoming past traumas, or managing medical conditions. We know that exercise is key to channeling excess energy and preventing problem behaviors, and we ensure your pets have ample outdoor time for play and exploration. Indoors, there's no shortage of toys and stimulation to keep them engaged and entertained. We treat each pet as a cherished member of our own family, offering love, care, and attention. Thank you for considering us for your pet's care needs, and we eagerly anticipate the opportunity to serve you. Feel free to reach out with any questions or to inquire about booking. Your pets' comfort and happiness are our top priorities!

Doggy Day Care • jul. 02, 2026

Jill was able to take our dog on relatively short notice. I really appreciated her responsiveness as well as flexibility concerning drop off and pick up times. Definitely recommend!

We love Jill. She is a always very accommodating and sweet. We think she is one of the best sitters out there. We are repeat customers and we will continue to let our Lucy Lou stay with her. Lucy has separation anxiety and we feel as though Lucy trusts her.

Safety, trust & environment

Our fenced area provides a safe area to explore nature and exercise off-leash. A spacious and relaxing interior of the home is available for downtime. There will always be a loving person at home. We try to refrain from use of a kennel, unless this is what your pup is accustomed to. During their stay your precious pets are treated like another member of the household. We'll keep you well-informed with regular updates and promptly address any requests for additional information. We aim to provide you with peace of mind, knowing your dog is in excellent care when you're apart.
