Pet Boarding Penrose

“Madelyne was welcoming and great with communication. I especially appreciated her updates the weekend. She has a great yard for the pups to play. Would definitely use her services again!”

“Lizzie was great! Very responsive, sent daily updates, and my girls really seem to have enjoyed their time there! This was our first experience with a "stranger" keeping our girls while we traveled and Lizzie really delivered. We've found our person ❤️”

About: I currently am working as an ER veterinary nurse. Previously, I was a nurse at a general practice hospital for 6 years, and prior to that, worked at an additional hospital as well as a pet store with exotics. I am more than comfortable administering any method of medication, and taking care of your medical needs, special needs, or senior fur babies. I own two friendly dogs, two sassy cats, and a baby ball python myself- variety is the spice of life. If you’re looking for a medically experienced caretaker for your kids, I’m your gal! *also have grooming experience with medical needs animals I just moved to the Asheville area, so Im excited to explore around. I do work as a ER veterinary nurse in the area, but I still plan on working Rover into my schedule! I have two friendly dogs, who will play with dogs that want to play, ignore the ones who don’t, and will be gentle with the young and little ones. I do not have a yard, but I am very active and used to taking my large dogs for >3-4 mile walks daily.

“Kinsey was AMAZING SPECTACULAR SO WONDERFUL on our wedding weekend. She was so gracious and flexible, hosting not just our dog but, at various points, both our officiant's dog and our neighbor's dog as well (they all know each other and we cleared it in advance). She was communicative and kind, shared all kinds of fun photos and updates and even ferried our pup to and from our venue so he could participate in our ceremony!! She and her family will always hold a special place in our hearts for our special day and we can't recommend her enough.”

“Robin is so sweet. She took such good care of Pearl. I was surprised and found a sweet bunny t-shirt in Pearls bag. She treats your pet like her own.”

“Sonya Lyn was fantastic with Daisy. I will definitely be calling her the next time I need someone to care for my dog. She's very bubbly and you can tell how much she loves dogs. She's comfortable caring for them and knows how to accommodate each unique personality. She took Daisy on long trail walks that she loved! Sonya Lyn sends great photos too, so you can be sure your pup is doing well and in good care. Thank you Sonya Lyn!”

“Jackie was phenomenal with my dog. At the time Jackie watched her, she was sick and on borrowed time. She gave her so much attention and as someone who works with animals, understood the situation. I can not recommend Jacki enough, especially for dogs that may be elderly or sick.”

“Scott took great care of Cheyenne and gave her extra love during thunderstorms. He has a beautiful property and Cheyenne had a great time playing with his pups.”

Dan S.

“Vanessa was absolutely wonderful with my Terk. She kept me posted with updates and pictures while I was away. I came home to a happy pup who had a blast with her pup as well. I will definitely be taking Vanessa as a sitter in the future. Not only was she great with Terk but so pleasant to communicate with.”

About: 25 years of heartfelt experience caring for dogs and cats of all sizes and ages, I bring genuine love and expert knowledge to every furry friend. Whether it’s a playful puppy, a wise senior cat, or anything in between, my deep understanding ensures compassionate, personalized care that nurtures their health and happiness. Every pet is treated like family, making their well-being and joy my top priority. Extremely flexible schedule, I am willing to travel, work remotely, willing to respond quickly, living on 1.5 acres, here to help with your pet needs. I have plenty of space to walk the dogs, a dog runner, crate, and one female cat named Bubbles. Bubbles will most likely stay in the basement where she thrives in her own space.

“Donna was great with communication and our last minute request. It made our time away from our baby easy and stress free. Donna is super nice, accodmating to our arrangements we needed, and kept us updated with pictures and statues. Thanks Donna!”

Jillian L.

“Very pleased with her services. My dog was able to get daily play sessions in the yard, and she frequently sent photos and videos showing how my dog was doing. Getting those updates really set my mind at ease about how my dog was doing.”

Jay K.

“Jill, Tommy and their dog Trixie are amazing and everything you hope for, and then some, and can’t recommend enough. Thank you Jill and Tommy for being so great, I know Asher enjoyed it very much!”

Peter B.

“Ethan and Hope were very accommodating and flexible when family emergency required extending our stay by several days. You can see how much they love their furry guests and it was evident Kinook enjoyed his stay.”

About: I have been surrounded by pets my whole life. Growing up, we always had dogs, cats, and birds. When I moved to the U.S, I lived in the country side with many dogs and thousand of birds (literally). Now, I have a little Chihuahua mix; he is like my baby. I also help my friends sitting their dogs when they are out of town. I love animals; I like to play with them and give them a lot of attention. I have experience administering medication to pets either orally or injectable . I am educated and trustful person who will respect your home and your pets. I am able to pass a background check if it is required. I have a cellphone and my own car. My husband and I both work from home, so your dog will never be left alone. Our jobs are very flexible, which means we can take your dog for walks during the day. I have a very friendly old Chihuahua. My house is big, comfy and very clean. It's at the end of a cul-de-sac, so there's no traffic.

“Miranda is such a great communicator! We will definitely use her again. Oakley definitely had the greatest time and she came back super tired (which is an amazing thing to give us a little break when we got back lol) we just had moved here and found it difficult to find somewhere to board her but luckily we found Miranda on here. Thank you a million times!”

About: I've been around dogs since I was little and I've watched a few dogs in Asheville and taken them on walks and we always have a great time. I'm a musician, so I'm home full time and i have a flexible schedule and plenty of space to play with and walk a dog. My home is a very calm environment, and we have a nice outdoor space. The neighbors have dogs so there could be opportunities to play with other dogs if that's something they're into. If I was at your house it would be pretty much the same, I would of course be attentive and careful and I would treat your things like they were mine.

“Great experience with using Autumn as a dogsitter for my dog Charlie. Was quick to respond and took care of my dog like her own! Will definitely use again.”

Alex R.

“Nikki was beyond amazing with her care for our pup! Her home and property are a dog’s dream for endless running and outdoor time. She also made sure Asha got lots of great hikes on the nearby trails! Also, her dog is a wonderful play buddy! Nikki even gave us some goodies from her garden when we arrived and then made sure Asha got an early morning trail hike/romp early in the morning before we picked her up. We couldn’t have asked for better care for our fur-kid. Thank you, Nikki!!”

About: I’ve always loved caring for dogs, often helping neighbors and friends with their dogs. And I look after my grandpup Whiskey, a husky, whenever my son travels. Your pet will enjoy a calm, steady routine while staying with me. I work full‑time from home, so they’ll have company throughout the day and plenty of attention. We’ll follow their usual schedule — walks, meals, potty breaks, and any comfort habits they rely on. Evenings are relaxed and cozy with playtime and snuggles. You’ll receive updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. For cats: They settle in easily here and enjoy a quiet, cozy space with lots of gentle attention. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I keep a steady routine throughout the day so pets know what to expect and feel secure while they’re with me. I live in a quiet, comfortable home that’s very pet‑friendly and easy for animals to settle into. Since I work from home, your pet will have company throughout the day and won’t be left alone for long stretches. Supervised outdoor time: I don’t have a fenced yard, so all outdoor time is on‑leash and supervised. I’m mindful of other dogs we may meet on walks and keep interactions calm and controlled. Safe indoor environment: Inside, pets can relax, nap, and settle in a pet‑friendly space where I’m always nearby. At times, my grandkitty Kitana may be here, and she’s calm, gentle, and used to sharing space with visiting pets. Communication: You’ll receive updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. If anything seems off — changes in appetite, behavior, or comfort — I’ll let you know right away.
